I think he's stronger than Beerus, but weaker than Vegetto.

I feel he's the strongest opponent that isn't on the level of a GoD. He's on a level to where a GoD would take him seriously to an extent in a fight, but not quite there on their level yet.

He's stronger than an ant, if an ant was this big.
"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

I'm hoping his power rivals Beerus, like being maybe 60% of Beerus' strength. I'm really ready for Goku to be approaching the strength of a GoD. It would be interesting if Jiren is just way stronger than everyone, even Goku's new form, and ultimately team work manages to take him down.

I don't think he's Vegetto Blue stronger either. Vegetto Blue's power is SSB Goku x SSB Vegeta... which is RIDICULOUS. I don't believe Jiren is that strong, but I can believe he's either close to, just as strong, or maybe even stronger than Beerus. And there are still four more universes stronger than Jiren's too... o.O

Anime Vegetto isn't stronger than Beerus.

"What a terrible ki. I've never seen such a powerful light."
"Your position as god surpasses our understanding."
"His power has not only increased, but I feel it has expanded infinitely."
- Comments about Zamasu Gattai

"You are only a human, but you have a power that surpasses the gods." - Zamasu Gattai. < He's not referring the Kaiohshins because we know that Goku and Vegeta already surpassed every Kaiohshin since the Boo saga.

Goku SS3 was easily defeated with 2 weak strikes from Beerus, but Goku fought Beerus using his base form again, he was able to resist normal punches from Beerus in his base form.

Goku SS3 and Vegeta SS2 weren't able to keep up a fight with Super Boo (Gotenks or Gohan), but with the Potara fusion, Vegetto was able to almost kill Super Boo without using his full power.

The Boo saga Vegetto (SS1), was as powerful as Goku SS4, now you have a base on how powerful a fusion between Goku and Vegeta is. Even if Goku Blue has 8% of Beeru's power, Vegetto would be stronger, that's not just a multiplier, its a potentialization and Vegetto still have that boost, a fusion between rivals are stronger than an ordinary fusion.

Jiren is strong enough to make Goku ascend, not beerus level at all but definitely a runner up to becoming a god of destruction.

Jiren>Vermoud>Beerus.

That's what i go with until proven he's not the Mortal Whis was talking about.

I don't know but he has to be stronger than Champa at the very least.. I mean champs looks like a slob with zero fighting skills. Gods are overrated at this point.

Not likely. You people forget how a small portion of Sidras power almost brought Frieza and Goku to their knees. Beerus simply used his breath to blow it away.

Just because Champa is fat and ridiculous doesn't mean he's weak. He was carrying on at the U6 and U7 fight, but at the end Hit and his crew were saved from his destruction due to Zeno popping up.

Point is, read between the lines. None of the Gods of Destruction are pushovers.

I doubt Jiren is stronger than a God of Destruction. Whatever mortal was mentioned as being stronger than such, it is likely he/she dwells in one of the non-participant universes.

I just don't get why everyone assumes it's Jiren... Goodness gracious it's so annoying.

Vermoud seemed to not even know WHO JIREN WAS. When he asked Toppo if he could beat Goku in the tournament, he said "I don't know, BUT blah blah friend Jiren.." Essentially telling him if he can't do it his friend Jiren can.

Seriously. There's no evidence that points to Jiren being the guy whatsoever.

Then why will the mortal be mentioned when asked about their chances in this tournament?

Vegetto was said only in the manga to "possibly" be even stronger than Beerus, so I don't think there is so much room between them to make a guess this precise lol. They're both in the same ballpark.

Anyway, I still doubt Jiren is on the level of Beerus. Unless he is the one Whis referred to as stronger than both Beerus and his own GoD.

More stronger than Goku and weaker than the Gods. After the new chapter i doubt that is the mortal stronger than Gods, the gap is too crazy.

The point of that statement is to deliver an "Oh shit, really?" moment, but Whis' never actually said he knew if that mortal would be in the tournament or if that mortal was even from a participating universe, so I'm not willing to assume such.

If the scaling remains linearly consistent, Jiren will surpass the degree of speed stated to be thousands of times greater than Dyspo's generic movement, the same speed that befuddled Champa in this recent episode. I'm more inclined to think he could be the ningen that Whis was referring to.
