With his Quirk he can make explosions from his hands anytime he wants. Which is not only powerful, but quite versatile.

Yang has similar strength if she uses her Semblance, but her Semblance requires her to get hit first, and it does not boost defense at all. And Bakugo hits very hard. And with his explosions he has the advantage of mobility, and Yang's Strength-Boost is useless against things she cannot hit.

Besides, Yang is unskilled. It took her 4 Volumes to actually start doing anything more than rush at the enemy, flail around, and trigger Semblance when things go wrong. Bakugo is very skilled, and very inteligent, tactical and adaptive.

So even if both were paired in strength, Bakugo wins in brains.
