I think Ang was as powerful as any avatar, it's just that we saw him in action back when he was 10 to 12, that skews everything. Regardless, he finished the most powerful fire bender in the world without going back into the avatar state as he did for the previous battle.
I'm sure Korra will kick serious ass too eventually. She's still not as old as Roku was when he finished his training, and benders have improved a great deal since the Ang days.
It's really the only way of making an interesting avatar show, otherwise it would be dull seeing them owning everyone ez
This, you can't compare an adult who's finished all his training with a 10 year old who knows nothing but one element at the beginning of the series.
And when Korra begins, she's obviously much stronger than Aang was in the first few seasons of The Last Airbender.
I'm sure adult Aang was just as powerful as any of the other avatars.
