The hulk may be a deviant in Marvel comics

In marvel comics lore, Eternals and Deviants were created by the Celestials and are both offshoorts of the evolutionary process.

Eternals have superhuman powers are are good looking (from the viewpoint of humans) while deviants sometimes have superhuman powers but are less powerful than an Eternal would have and Deviants are not good looking (from the viewpoint of humans).

The untapped genetic potential of humans has created Captain America, Captain Marvel and the Hulk. The extremis virus from the movie Iron Man 3 unleashes some of the genetic potential of humans.

Thanos is a deviant born on the Eternal world of Titan. He has super strength and super durability and possibly more powers. Bruce banner when exposed to gamma radiation may have mutated him into the Deviant spectrum of humans who can have their genetic potential unlocked.

The reason Thanos was able to defeat the Hulk in Infinity War without using an infinity stone is that Thanos had his powers of super strength from birth and is more skilled in using his strength while the Hulk uses brute force without much skill involved.
