That's part of Doomsday's character. Well for Pre-Crisis at least.....It's his ability to evolve/adapt countering anything that his opponent throws at him and thought his way of countering Hulk is by either of those options.

As for whether he knew. He doesn't, but Doomsday has the ability to gain knowledge of your weaknesses upon skin to skin contact. I know it sounds crazy, but that is how it works.
