I think he's weaker than Super Buu:
Super Buu: 126,000,000,000
Vegetto: 80,000,000,000
Vegeta: "Funny... I seem to recall Kakarot being fed the same information right before he transformed; the distinct look on your faces when he went Super Saiyan didn't exactly inspire confidence. One does not predict or calculate power like ours."

Equal to SSJ 3 Gogeta, so slightly stronger than Bootenks. Easily disposed of by Boohan.

I don't think he's weaker than Super Buu, if you think he is, please tell me why, my memory his hazy.

Vegetto just up and transforms in the manga. There is no way to gauge how strong he is based on that. Him being weaker than Super Buu is just how it scaled for me.

The animation made it seem he didn't even need SSJ, but in the manga he goes SSJ right away. I didn't care for that. at least a few koma of Vegetto fighting in base form to give us some measure of power.
I think base Vegetto is a bit stronger than Gohan Buu, until Buu rage boosts or gets serious. But that is mainly due to the animation.

Vegetto simply is. Mortal understandings of power cannot grasp his magnificence.

Stronger than Gotenks Boo, but somewhere around Gohan Boo's level. Base "Gokhan" was supposed to be stronger than Gotenks Boo, and Vegetto was supposed to be even stronger than "Gokhan" because Goku & Vegeta are better matches, since they are equals. However, Vegetto decided to use Super Saiyan against Gohan Boo, which implies IMO that without Super Saiyan, he wouldn't be able to humiliate Boo.

Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Its never implied anywhere that Gokhan would be inferior to Vegetto, ever.

I do agree that Vegetto needed SSJ to humiliate Boo, though. Otherwise there would be no point in going straight to that form in the manga. So at base he is either weaker than Gohan-Buu (not by a huge amount, maybe around Gotenks-Buu power) or around the same kind of power.

I'd say it's mostly out-universe reasons for Vegetto going SS (wouldn't be as cool if he fought in base). Regarding in-universe, Vegetto going SS in the manga right off the bat and later telling that he didn't know he could own Boo so easily doesn't imply that SS was really needed (whereas in the anime, base Vegetto owns Boo but still needs to go SS afterwards). There are other points I can't be bothered to provide, just saying that people tend to ignore important details and just look at the fact that Vegetto transformed.

Other than the fact that unlike Goku & Gohan, Goku & Vegeta are rivals?

Vegetto doesn't explicitly say he doesn't need SSJ though. There is a 50 times gap between his base and SSJ form.

Can't tell if you completely missed my point or just trolling again. If SS Vegetto didn't realize his power (at first, at least), it means he didn't realize his base power as well, which means that him going SS was not necessarily needed.

Nothing says Base Vegetto ~ Gotenks-Boo. I think he went he went SSjin because he was much weaker than Gohan-Boo

SSjin 3 Gogeta ~ Gotenks-Boo WDF? :o

It is one way to interpret it, but there is nothing that proves that it's definitely true. So in the end, it comes down to how we interpret it.

General consesnus seems to be either

Base Vegito = Buutenks

Base Vegito = Mystic Gohan

Base Vegito = Buuhan

Question is which ones seems most accurate.

Interpret what? I'm only saying that there's no hard proof that Vegetto needed SS, not that he definitely didn't need it...
