There is no "underdog story". Neither Goten nor Trunks are underdogs. Trunks being trained by Vegeta and Goten being trained by Gohan means nothing as far as one being better than the other. And even if Goten was the underdog, it didn't mean he was going (or was expect) to lose, as the series has proven time and time again in the past.

Not when you say that Trunks was expected to win. Nobody knew who would win.

I think it's cool that Trunks won, otherwise we'd been treated to another insufferable Vegeta monologue about how "he's a super elite prince warrior and not low class scum" etc etc etc
"Giving up is something we can do anytime, so let's head on, even if it's just a little bit!"
