I think it's a little bit more about where they fight. Optimus just can't fight without any concern in downtown where there are a hell lot of people around.
Say, move the battle field to a remote area like dessert or somewhere, Optimus is not that easy to beat for Megatron I will say.
That was my impression, until I saw the two of them standing next to each other in the movie and realizing just how big Megatron is.I always thought Optimus Prime was the strongest transformer but if Megatron is that's cool too. Btw, I haven't seen the movie yet.
yeah OP was not as powerful as he should have been.Yeah, unfortunatly Megatron kicked Optimus's Ironhyde all over the place.
It seemed to me like the power level was more or less based on size. The bigger ones weren't as agile, but they were brutes. Seeing that he's supposed to be bigger, I wonder if Blackout could've taken out Megatron.
It's a shame he didn't use all those massive pulse weapons in the city. Seemed like a waste.

jazz should have single handedly taken out devastator to show that his size isn't in afactor in taking out bigger transformers.

Blackout's even bigger than that, but the soldiers handled him before he really fought anyone, so it's hard to say.

Are you sure Blackout was bigger than Meg's? They never really stood next to each other in the movie did they?
