SSJ2 Teen Gohan and Super Perfect Cell vs Z-sword SSJ2 Future Trunks and Dabura: For some reason Future Trunks didn't appear to be nearly as powerful as what Gohan implicitly gained through Shin and Goku's assessment of his odds against
Buu. We can probably draw the conclusion that Trunks was superior to Dabura based off performances against the demon king in combat but it's not like they were incapable of weathering the onslaught and preparing themselves for a counterattack.
A battle between these two sides is going to be hard fought. I could see it being quite close. Cell can boast of having the genetic memory and techniques of some of the universe's greatest fighters. Opposite to him is Dabura with his unpredictable magical talents and Stone Spit. Against either of those abilities Cell can counter it through regeneration but Gohan doesn't have that luxury. If he's the one to be paired off against Dabura while Trunks battles Cell then I can see the latter team eventually pulling ahead. If it's monster versus demon with the two Saiyans having at it with each other then the advantage may eventually go over to Team A. Under these circumstances I see fighter placement as being important.
Android 18, Piccolo and Majin Buu (ToP) vs Trio de Dangers: In the anime Bergamo could absorb the power of Goku's Super Saiyan Blue Kaioken combination up to an extent. If it's that format with these characters then I see the Trio de Dangers eventually winning thanks to their leader; barring any shenanigans from
Buu with his Candy Beam or absorption, of course.
The manga's rendition of Universe 9's lupine trio has them at a more modest level with their strongest only just managing to weather an attack from Frost yet proving to be weaker than Piccolo individually. A team up of Universe 7 fighters like this should be capable of handling the Trio de Dangers.
Android 18, Piccolo and Majin Buu (ToP) vs Full Power Frost, SSJ1 Cabba and Magetta (ToP): Anime wise Frost and Magetta are arguably stronger than the group here since they were pressuring SSJ Vegeta whereas Piccolo and
Buu could only threaten base Goku during their practice matches. #18 demonstrated greater strength against Tupper compared with base Goku but that's not going to be enough against fighters who can trade blows with Super Saiyan Vegeta from the same era.
In the written format we have less to go off for most of these characters. Magetta is going to prove to be a liability because of his weakness which should be readily exploitable by #18 and Piccolo. It comes down to Frost and Cabba. The Namekian is arguably close to Frost in power at this time when comparing their respective performances against a mutual foe, Hyssop. A fight between them would be hotly contested by now, I believe. All that leaves is #18 and
Buu to contend with Cabba. Since Cabba presumably increased his strength following his battle with Vegeta who was a Super Saiyan at the time I'm not confident in
Buu's ability to do much here. Most of what we see from #18 comes from her fight with Ribrianne. Frankly I can't see her standing up to SSJ Cabba.
Buu either turns Cabba into candy, absorbs him, or the U7 group is going to wind up losing.
Ultimate Gohan (Moro) vs Hit (ToP anime): Using Saganbo as a comparative point, Goku felt prompted into resorting to his blue form in order to overpower and damage the convict. Gohan could only keep pace with Saganbo while collaborating with Piccolo; mind you this is against a Saganbo with less power than what he had while getting picked apart by the aforementioned blue Goku. How Hit measures by the anime's standards can be seen when he's engaging Dyspo and Kunshi. Goku only briefly resorted to his blue form at that time and throughout the rest of it he felt comfortable using red against opponents that were giving Hit trouble.
It may be a close fight if you consider Gohan at the time of the battle against Moro to be close to Goku's SSJG but not on par. If he is then Hit's only option is to rely on his killing techniques in order to lethally strike Gohan down in one blow; even if they're equal the Time Skip grants Hit an invaluable advantage here. I think the U6 assassin is in a better position to win than Gohan is.
Merus vs Granola: We see how Moro while using Merus' power and abilities was equal to Ultra Instinct Goku. Granolah underestimated a more powerful Ultra Instinct Goku, reunited his power and then proceeded to strike at a vital point which incapacitated his opponent. Merus is an accomplished fighter and bojutsu user. I see him putting up a good fight though with the techniques Granolah learned through his wish coupled with his accuracy as a sharpshooter I think he'll eventually win.
Shin vs Cell Jr: Easily Shin. The Cell Jrs should logically have the experience of their conceiver but I personally consider Shin to be comparable with MSSJ Goku from the Cell Games. Against a lone Jr he should be able to win, inexperienced or not.
Base Broly vs Old Moro: While fighting Vegeta this Broly was continuously improving himself to the point that Vegeta was forced into using his red form. Once that threshold was crossed, however, Broly was utterly helpless against the Saiyan Prince. Moro at the beginning of his conflict with the Saiyan was pressuring and forcing him on the defence while Vegeta was using that same form. It took the Prince ascending to SSJB for him to finally seize the initiative against the wizard. Broly's strength does continuously grow over time but that advantage is nullified by someone like Moro who areally deprives the environment and living beings of their energy
