Goku checked with Karin to see if he'd be strong enough to defeat Cell on his own. Karin says no. Goku then very visibly does NOT return into the room of spirit and time to become stronger. Goku then gives Cell a senzu because he sees the match as a friendly fight, not a life-threatening battle. Piccolo even calls Goku out on the fact that he went into the Cell Games knowing full well that he'd be relying on Gohan, but never let Gohan in on this fact.
And no... Cell has Saiyan genes also he smarter like Freeza he wouldn't be an idiot to fight Goku and other knowing he is no capable yet, so yes... He would train and he's training would be even more effective than the Saiyans and Freeza together. Because of course he has both genes.
NOBODY IS SAYING CELL DOESN'T HAVE SAIYAN OR FREEZA'S GENETICS.
The manga very clearly shows that he doesn't train. He gets stronger by absorbing people. The manga also shows that he self-destructs if it looks like he can't win. Goku would have spared his life for the same reason he spared Piccolo's, Vegeta's and tried to spare Freeza's. Cell could have come back as a good-guy rival just like everybody other than Freeza had, but his motivations are fundamentally different.
His motivations are based on his programming, which is why he follows them to the T. His goals are to obtain the perfect form and then test its strength out. If he finds out its strength isn't enough, then he tries to destroy whatever is stronger than him by self-destructing because he literally has no reason to live.
There's no much tension between Goku and Cell right, more with Gohan... But it would be interesting anyway. And no, all that Freeza's training seems like something coming out from nowhere and I not going bitch about this I just hope the movie itself explain that with the all the details because it's not something that you easily accept, if all the mysteries around Freeza's race are explained, I will be very satisfied.
For what it's worth, the impression I got is that his training is for being able to become strong enough to transform again. The trailers show him fighting at less than 100% against Goku's non-SSJ form. We've already seen that his transformations are ridiculously random and powerful. His first transformation about doubles his strength. His next one is less than 3x stronger and his final form is over 40x stronger.
Also, the difference between Freeza and Cell's strength doesn't matter. It doesn't make it any less believable for to reach his goals in four months, it just means it would take Cell less time to achieve the same goal under the same training methods.
