I've seen people place base Vegetto at SSJ3 Goku's level so even at his possible absolute weakest, he's still capable of defeating Fat Stuff with moderate effort if he's 100% serious. If you place base Vegetto at anything higher than SSJ3 Goku then the amount of effort he has to dish out becomes less and less lol.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

Piccolo fused with Kami will just raise his power by a bit . Kami isn't that strong to begin with .We know Kami is less than 400 ,As Piccalo was around 400-460.(against Radditz)

Piccolo was around 3,200 against nappa ... even if we assume Kami was 500 , It still wont be 4000.
...did you miss what actually happened when Piccolo fused with Kami later on? He didn't just get a little increase like adding on Kami's not-even-remotely-relevant-at-that-point level onto his own would be. He went from weak enough to be beaten in a couple hits by Android 17 all the way up to being his equal (maybe even stronger, considering they fought equally pretty much the whole time regardless of the fact that #17 doesn't get tired, and that he probably would've killed #17 if not for the barrier blocking his attack at one point.) That's definitely not a less-than-400-point increase.

And consider that the original nameless Namek's power is said to be way more than any Saiyan could handle, yet both of his split halves (Daimao/Kami) seem to have never been any higher than 300-something. Just adding them together would only end up with a level that even Raditz could beat, not one that would seem incredible to a planet full of 3000ish Nameks. It definitely doesn't work by just adding Piccolo and Kami's levels together.

Guru actually states the fusion will give Piccolo a x2 boost. Still inferior to Vegeta but a lot stronger than Nappa.

Yeah, Guru never says that. What he actually says is that when the Nameless Namek split, he lost half of the power he was gifted at birth. Whatever that means.

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

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.

I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

Toriyama said Mr. Satan might not be about as strong as Bob Sapp, so who'd win between those?

Toriyama said he was weaker than Sapp. I think that was just his way of saying Sapp would win in a fight.

Why did he say Bob Sapp was stronger than Satan anyway? Why that one specific guy?

Well he make be weaker than Sapp, but apparently Sapp has creative ways to lose a fight

I definitely think Future #17 would win. Trunks seems to think the Z-team are only capable of defeating the Androids if they outnumber them before he finds out that they're stronger than the ones in his timeline. I don't think anyone at that stage could defeat a Future 17 or 18 one-on-one.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

Future 17. I mean I have 17 of the Future the same power of Main timeline 17. So Piccolo would get mega owned. Besides didn't 17 KILL Piccolo in the future?

Which Trunks? Fresh new SS Future Trunks from his special? Mecha arc Trunks? Android arc Trunks? Perfect Cell arc Trunks? Cell Games Trunks? Kid Trunks in the Buu Saga? Before ROSAT training? After?

Anyway, Daizenshuu said future 17 was only somewhat weaker than present 17 to boot. That's on top of what Saiga brought up. Future 17 dispatches Piccolo with one blow.

Oh, well, even pre-ROSAT Trunks finger-flicks Metal Cooler, who should only be in between 17 and 16.
