Wrist flexors are stronger than extensors due to differences in muscle compartment composition. The wrist and finger flexors provide more precise movements, including an additional muscle that's a powerful wrist and finger flexor called the:

Flexor Digitorum Profundus

In contrast, the primary wrist extensor is the Extensor Digitorum. As a matching Flexor Digitorum also exists the absence of an "Extensor Profundus" results in less precise, weaker wrist Extension.
