Isn't any Buu stronger than Kid Buu, besides the skinny and fat one?

It begs the question since Fat buu had south and daio kaioshin in him why couldn't he defeat kid buu?

Fat Buu was Kid Buu and Mr. Boo together, with the good side dominant. Super Buu was Kid Buu and Mr. Boo together, with the evil side dominant. Mr. Boo was the good side; Kid Buu the evil side. When they're separated Kid Buu has the greater portion of the power. What the fat side brought in was the gentleness.

In response to the idea that Chibi Boo's power was enough to attain Buff Boo (the most convincing argument so far), he didn't keep that form at all afterward, so assuming it's true that Chibi Boo could reach the Buff form on his own, it must have been energy inefficient; even if he didn't power up from South Kaioshin, if his use of the form in flashback (which... is fillerific, but...) is to be considered, then the Kaioshin would have at least made it easier to maintain the form, though by what mechanism is questionable... so basically... it's impossible to tell what happened to his power, but we can tell that there were effects on his personality and how energy was used?
Or maybe I'm just saying what comes to mind. These aren't the droids you're looking for.

2.Super Boo w/Gotenks
3.Kid Boo
3/4 Buff Boo
5.Piccolo Boo
6.Super Boo
7.Fat Boo
8.Evil Boo
9.Good Boo

Why would he ?
Fat Buu was Kid Buu and Mr. Boo together, with the good side dominant. Super Buu was Kid Buu and Mr. Boo together, with the evil side dominant. Mr. Boo was the good side; Kid Buu the evil side. When they're separated Kid Buu has the greater portion of the power. What the fat side brought in was the gentleness.
Fat Boo = Kid Boo + Great Lords of Lords (Who dropped his power) + South Kaioshin (Who either dropped his power or didn`t change it at all)
Super Boo = Evil Boo + Good Boo
Evil Boo =/= Kid Boo

The transformation from Super to Kid Boo was a regression back to the original form thus why it first transformed into Buff Boo first and then Kid Boo .
The Buff Buu didn`t last because it was only a middle stage from the transformation between Super Boo and Kid Boo , only an intermediary stage , a stage achieved with Kid Boo`s power . It was like going from point A (Super Boo) to point B (Kid Boo) but with something along the way ,that only lasts a few moments because eventually you have to get to point B because that`s the destination .
