Because he's great to be used as a measuring stick in this context (around movie 8 Broly VS SSJ2 Vegeta).

Why would this Broli be different? Why would any Broli be different? The only thing the could be different in him is his personality, depending what kind of life he had. Genetically, he should be exactly the same as everyone.

Not really. For example, somewhere in the past his great-great-great father could have had his son one year later which would result in slightly different offspring and, eventually, a slightly different Broly, even if he looks just like normal Broly.

Anything can be different and its actually pretty easy to come up with reasons for the differences since anything in the past (even things millions of years ago) could have happened differently.

Well if you wanna get technical and take Burst Limit into account, Broly starts backing away after Goku goes SSJ2 at the end of Broly's story mode. So I guess that implies that Broly was apprehensive of/intimidated by a SSJ2 Goku so a SSJ2 Vegeta should be enough to bring the Blonde Hulk down.

That's not technical at all. Movie 8 Broly was defeated by a SSJ that wasn't even in SSJ2. If he's around that level, Vegeta is clearly superior.

I'm not an expert in these things, but I don't think that such a thing is possible. If Paragus had slept with Broli's mother a different day, then the kid she would give birth to would be a totally different kid.

But then again, this is DBM, where Bra can be born through a different father, so...

It would be another kid yes, but he could have exactly the same name and be strikingly similar (like many brothers often are) and so he would be, effectively, for all intents and purposes, the version of that kid in that universe. Which is what could happen with Broly, like I said. So, its pretty easy to justify such a change.

Bra is a good example. She is actually another girl with different genetics than main Bra, but she is effectively the version of Bra in that universe since, genetically she is like a sister or even closer to the Bra of the main universe, she has the same name and she is similar to her.

Not arguing about him having the same name, or looking similar like a brother would, but he can't look exactly the same.

She looks exactly like the Bra we know though (they have exactly the same face, height, hair, skin, and eye color), which shouldn't be possible since they have a different father.

Goku looks exactly like Bardock. And like Tullece. And young Goten. So, that pretty much invalidates the whole "can't look identical" thing.

First off, like I said, people like Goku, Bardock, young Goten and Tullece demonstrate, yes she can in that world.

Secondly, the art of Dragon Ball isn't detailed enough to spot small differences in looks. So, a very similar character in terms of looks would probably look identical in that art, which means that both Bras can actually have small differences in terms of their appearance in-universe but they would never be noticeable with Dragon Ball art style.

He's totally useless as a measuring stick, as not only is this an alternate universe Broly, it's a ghost warrior Broly, who is not the same strength as the original.

My opinions on this page: goddammit, more Broly? We don't need more Broly, with everyone going on about how awesome and fearsome Broly is. Why couldn't he have been vaporized in the last page?

It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke

I completely disagree. Ghost warriors aren't much stronger than the real ones since even Cold, who is stated to be around #16's power, was still complete fodder to a SSJ2, and the only abnormally strong Broly was the one from universe #20 because he has spent decades building up his power, so this Broly, who was killed by Raichi, is obviously supposed to be around the power Broly had in movie 8.

What makes you think he won't be quickly dispatched in the following pages? If he's around movie 8 power, that's the most likely scenario.

No, Goku, Bardock, Tullece, and Goten don't look exactly the same. They have the same hair, but their faces are different.

I'll agree on that. After doing some research, Salagir said that U16 Bra & U18 Bra have similar faces, so I'll assume that, realistically, they are not identical.

Well he seemed to have survived Vegeta's attack, also he has to be stronger than movie 8 but may be weaker than movie 10. Though I think Vegeta has this. On the otherhand a controllable Broly might stick around...I dunno.

This Vegeta can go SSj2 and most likely never stop training. I would imagine he would kill this Broli with some minor effort.

Honestly...I'm kind of interested to see where they take this version of Broly. Chances are he's going to be just the same...but if this one is for some reason not the Legendary Super Saiyan as our characters assume, or they just make him a lot more rational - this version may not have had to put up with Goku's crying and gone insane - then this could be pretty interesting. Otherwise, though...

If I search Goku the Goten picture will pop up. That's because they look 100% alike

They are. Tullece is probably the best example. Cold proves nothing here, as he could be ten times stronger than Android 16 and still get one-shotted. His death tells us absolutely nothing about how strong this Vegeta is that we didn't already know.

Except this Broly doesn't appear to have gone through the exact same life as Broly in the main universe, so we don't know shit about how strong he is. So he has no purpose as a measuring stick; both him and Vegeta are of completely unknown powers.
