^^^I know but that is true in Percy Jackson and The Last Olympian. Plus, Kronos is described to only be ten feet while Typhon is while the gods, who were twenty feet tall and were described as extremely small compared to Typhon. Kronos will barely be able to do damage to someone who is at least ten times bigger than him. And Typhon was continously able to withstand attacks from most of the gods combined for at least several days without being defeated. He was also easily able to withstand the master bolt and barely even stagger while also enduring attacks from all the other Olympians. Also, Kronos actually needed Typhon in his war with the Olympians in the PJO series because Typhon would basically distract and put the gods out of commission while Kronos and his army defeats the demigods and destroys Mount Olympus. At least that was Kronos's plan. That actually proves that he himself cannot defeat the twelve Olympians as he wouldn't need Typhon if he could.

A counter to that argument could be that Kronos didn't surrender after Typhon was defeated but that was because he believed he could overpower Percy and destroy the thrones of the gods before they arrive to attack him. Therefore, I see no evidence of Kronos requiring all the gods to defeat. In the myths, Zeus was able to defeat Kronos with the slight assistance of his brothers and sisters but that is definitely not all the gods. As well as that, Kronos also had his titan brothers helping him.

Plus, Zeus was not able to defeat Typhon by himself in the myths. In fact, he was frightened senseless by the big monster and in their first fight, Zeus got his beard burnt off and retreated. Zeus was later able to defeat Typhon only when he was asleep. Also, the Olympians never stated that they couldn't win a fight against Kronos. They said they couldn't win against Kronos with his titan brothers and Typhon helping him. And it was Percy who stated that he didn't have a chance if Kronos revealed his true form, not the Olympians.

Overall, I am leaning towards Typhon though there are many things that could tip this fight into Kronos's favour. It will definitely be quite hard and the result isn't really clear but I think Typhon has a greater chance of winning this fight.
