Where is he stuck between the humans in the beginning of Z? I have him between Yamcha and Chaotzu

Yamcha seemed to do better than Yajirobe at fighting Kami at the end of DB, so I agree with your placement.

I dunno, I think Kami wanted to make more of a point of humiliating Yamcha. He was just toying with him.

Everyone surpasses God in six months and returns to Earth to continue training until the Saiyans arrive. From what we can tell Yajirobe stopped training at that point. It wouldn't surprise me if Chaozu surpassed him.

Chaozu also trained with Tien, Yamcha and Krillin before the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai, whereas Yajirobe lounged around in Korin Tower and stuffed his face. Added to the fact that Yajirobe never mastered Buku Jutsu, I'd go as far as to suggest that Chaozu is at least as strong, if not stronger, by end of the 'Dragonball' portion of the story.

Even though Kami wasn't super-serious about the fight, he did praise Yamcha for his skill and innovation. That is a testament that speaks for Yamcha. Yajirobe did not get the same words.
