Guardian explosion:

Catalon explosion, incidentally, destroyed 1/5th of the planet's surface. Which is FAR above the damage seen in Sentry/WWH. That wasn't even the whole of Manhattan.
Here's the Radiant. That is, IF we wanted to go by the destruction they're kicking up 🙂

Hulk wins because Romita's art with the fire around hulk and Sentry looks more dramatic than an Oan Guardian kamikaze attack or Doomsday killing hundreds of GL's or Doomsday capable of tanking an explosion that laid waste to 1/5 of Calaton.
So it does not matter that any of the things DD did is factually more impresive what matters is the fire tornado engulfing a few blocks of Manhattan, THAT WAS AWESOME!

You know something that is often overlooked in that scan?
Two things actually.
Radiant was the ultimate energy life form and Radiant's energy was powerful enough to pierce DD's forearm.
Oh but the fire tornado is more impressive, so Hulk wins

They'd also been fighting for a week. Non-stop (presumably).
But Romita is a better artist 👆

He was somewhat amped though wasn't he? Hard to call that a straight up feat.

Which feat?Guardian explosion, he lost the ring.
Calaton, I don't recall him being amped...
It's why I never really gave that feat much credibility in regards to a straight up tanking feat.
@Darksaint
After killing a lantern and taking his ring, DD was actually able to make it respond to his will. It's a bit silly but he started using its power from the moment he took it.
"It has UNTUITIVELY TAPPED into the power of the ring".
Starts duking it out with a Guardian.
"So terrible was the force of the MONSTER'S WILL, that the guardian actually began to falter!" The Guardian then unfurled his last bit of energies...
...resulting in the loss of DD's stolen ring along with a massive explosion.
Pretty clear to me that DD was the beneficiary of a gl ring in his fight with a Guardian all the way to the very end. Really hard to claim that a straight up tanking feat.
