Didn't Freeza and Cell even state that they had grown stronger?

And heck, even if they hadn't, there would be no way Goku could have reached close to the power of a SSJ2 in base.

It's Toei. It's Goku. It's GT. Join up the dots.

Base Goku was stronger than a foe who boasted strength superior to Majin Buu's. And this was only 19 episodes into the series.

Goku vs. Ledgic, and some of the Dragon base form fights were ridiculously short. Would've been cool to see a bit more of Baby's build up to "perfection" (longer fights with more strugling from the "GT fighters").

And then you would complain how it was sooo dragged out. The great thing about GT is that the fights DON'T take forever.

The bad thing about GT, however, is that it's fights often lacked satisfactory conclusiveness.

What does that even mean? If you liked conclusive then why is Goku vs Majin Vegeta everyone's favourite?

It was conclusive. Goku had SSJ3 in his sleeve...

But it just...ended with a knockout and left unresolved. Hell, it didnt resolve ANYTHING! The rivalry? No, fusion to Vegetto did that. Vegeta's hatred of Goku? No it just made that worse by Goku hiding his power from him. The entire fight only happened to fuck over Toriyama's original plan of Majin Piccolo and give the fans what they wanted. A dull uninspired boring, out of character, technique-less light show.

What does "everyone's" opinion have to do with my opinion, though...?

I really hope you're joking... Otherwise, stop reading the Dragon Ball wikia! That was only a what-if plot-line in Super Sonic Warriors 2 and nothing more.

Wasn't it confirmed that originally Piccolo was supposed to go Majin but the fans wanted Vegeta to fight Goku? Since Piccolo is Toriyama's favourite, it makes sense.

Not at all, it's merely fans' (Dragon Ball Wikia) baseless speculation.

Would have preferred Piccolo being made relevant again over Vegeta. :P

Stop reading DB Wikia! They'll bite you in the ass and then inject a serum that goes through your brain and makes you think they right!

SSj3 Goku vs. Bebi Vegeta should have been much longer if it was not for Goku's small body.

That fight has my favourite dub line.

Something like:

Yi Xing-Long: Should we begin, or would you like to take a break?

Goku: Could we take a break, because that would be great?

Vegeta: Idiot.
