Goku could have been taking Gohan's previous outbursts into account.

Is this Piccolo before he fused with Kami, or after?

This is Piccolo prior to Kami merger.


Piccolo post Kami merger would solo those Androids since they're just each slightly more poerful than Future Trunks in the Android saga.

The Cyborgs are much stronger than that in the future. They're definitely weaker than the present Cyborgs, but not by much. The Cyborgs take this.

I thought that the Cyborgs were equal in power in both timelines. The ones in Trunk's just never had to be pushed to full power like the ones in the current timeline.

If it was Vegeta and Piccolo vs 18 alone, then maybe. With 17 there, they get crushed.

I don't see why I would have to elaborate here, but ok. Gohan was stated to be very slightly stronger than Dabura during their battle, his sloppiness prevented him from doing well. If Gohan is weaker than his Cell games self, how the heck is Gohan supposed to be stronger than someone who is equal to Cell?
I'm sure theres a counter to that, I cant find it right now.. but when I do, I bring this little topic back up accordingly lol.

Also Super Yi Shenlong obliterates Beers... Imo the Haikaishin's full power is equal to first appearance SSJ4 Goku.

There's no counter unless you, for some ridiculous reason, believe Gohan was a SSJ2, in which case Dabura would be stronger than Perfect Cell.

There a few things in Dragon Ball that just absolutely cannot be debated and this little topic isnt one of them.

But Nah, I believe he was an SSJ1 too, but I also think that Dabra was equal to Perfect Cell since nothing really contradicts it imo.

Goku tried to give his son the benefit of the doubt by saying Dabra's use of magic gave the demon king an advantage to which Vegeta replies that "he still shouldn't be having this much trouble".

Gohan's lack of training affected his skill more than his raw power. Meaning he couldn't bring out the same amount of power he had as an SSJ2 when he was younger and he was fighting like an amateur.

Yeah I know the way multipliers work is that it increases the power you already have by a set amount but do to Gohan's slacking and being that he's older and not prone to temper tantrums , that coulve affected the multipliers as well. It may be a stretch but its not impossible .

For all we know if Gohan had fought Cell while he was just SSJ1 as kid it might have played out similar to his fight with the Demon king.

Overral the statement Goku made about Dabura being around Cell's level was never really outright contradicted

Kaboom begs to differ. It's stated somewhere that Gohan was superior to Dabura.

If theres actually an irrefutable statement or a theory that makes more sense then mine then i'd be more than willing to change my views on it until then though my thoughts remain the same.

That's what Kaioshin thinks. Goku on the other hand seems to think that Gohan isn't that much stronger.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. 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.

Depends on how you interpret statements. Some say Gohan got weaker and some say he had the same strength, but couldn't draw power from anger.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke
Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.
