Because if Goku were to beat Superman then he just wouldn't be the Goku we know. It's the same reason why Goku didn't beat Beerus. Goku represents the fighter... Not the winner.

Let's keep it that way because he's so much more of an interesting character.
You know I can name hundreds of characters from just his own setting (DC Comics) who are stronger than Superman and could beat him (many of them very easily). And many of them have.
Same. It's not like Superman is physically unbeatable, he just manages to overcome stuff even when the odds are against him.

Somewhat like a certain stinking monkey from Vegeta, in fact.
I'm not very familiar with the DC universe. My point is that Goku will never beat Superman and that's a good thing.

Depends which version of the character you're talking about.

Silver age, Bronze age, Post-Crisis/Re-reboot, most of the really overpowered versions (1 million, Prime 1 million, Cosmic Armor), etc. sure. New 52? I wouldn't really know. Early Post-Crisis, most animated versions, movie versions, etc.? Not really.

I wanna know how they scaled SSGSS tho, that form has barely no feats besides being pierced by a mob laser.
Fight was boring and fast. First one was way better.
He lifted infinity and he's even more insanely fast than they portrayed last time. I find it hard to believe that there are some people above him like Darkseid. I think by no limits they mean, the writers can literally have him do ANYTHING, and it won't be bullshit.

That is my biggest problem. This fight was really boring. I can think of plenty of memorable moments from the last one, but this one hardly had shit. Only memorable moment was Supes being a boss and walking through Goku's Kamehameha. That's about it. The trailer was more hype than the fight itself.
LOL , when you put it that way I guess he does have no limits :lol: as far as I know there are.. 52vers of him?

Likewise, I already forgot what happened besides supes walking through the wave. Oh and I guess the laser eye to Goku's eye for the kill was ok (if it werent used so often, he recently did that to darkseid)

Earth 1 Superman, who is the original one, and generally considered the weakest, punched through dimensions and flew through a sun.

Edit: Sorry, I meant Earth 2.

Glad to see that they stuck to their guns on this one. I figured they would give into fan demand to end the fight in Goku's favor, despite the god forms having very few feats.

I love Goku, but Superman's so above Goku in raw ability that even the god form wouldn't push this in his favor. Superman just has more under his belt. He could kill Goku by taking him to the vacuum of space, run him through a star, lobotimize him with heat vision, crush his trachea, explode his lungs via Super breath (or Freeze them), keep him underwater until he drowns, the list goes on.

Goku's got less variability with his abilities, let's be honest here, and Superman can endure more environmental effects than Goku can. Superman doesn't need to breath, can handle intense pressure, heat, cold, the vacuum of space, etc.

Superman winning is just the logical outcome.

Funnily enough according to them SSJG Goku could very well beat both Post-Crisis and N52 Superman:

Whilst i do think that Superman would win, the "No limits thing" is utter bullshit

But Goku always wins in the end!!! DBZ is all about the heroes winning it doesn't matter if Goku is weaker, he is the underdog of the show he always finds ways to surpass someone since the old school Dragon Ball.
Neither Goku nor Superman "always wins".

A hero who "always wins" is boring.

With the exception of Saitama

I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

Who knows, apparently they are having some copyright issues(my theory is the usage of Super footage), so they'll probably have to edit that out and then be good to go.

Is this just bad phrasing or something? Because I don't understand what you mean by this.

That was years ago, prior to BoG and their updated calcs also it only regarded Post Crisis Superman as the N52 reboot hadn't happened yet.

All of this applies to Beerus yet Goku isn't too far off from being able to fully hold his own or even beat him in a fight.

TBH I don't buy either of those numbers. Too many unknowns and variables.

It's pretty simple, I'll just sum it up into 4 words because I'm tired right now
Superman is not unbeatable

I will say this for the last time , Superman having unlimited potential/having no limits is pure NLF.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.
