Most of us probably think Base Vegetto in the anime (and maybe even in the manga) is a lot stronger than Gohan-Boo due to how their fight went. But all is not as it seems...behold!
Before they get to any fighting, Boo doesn't think Vegetto can beat him. At this point, the only thing Vegetto has done is slice Boo's cheek.
After they fight a bit, with Vegetto seemingly beating on Boo and then Boo seemingly beating on Vegetto and sending him into a crater below, Vegetto says he "felt that a bit," to which Boo says he was still holding back.
The two go on to fight some more. Vegetto blasts away most of Boo's body, to which Boo smiles and regenerates, and then after a cut scene of Mr. Satan and Dende, the two are seen fighting evenly. When they stop, Boo comments that Vegetto really does seem stronger than Goku and Vegeta individually, Vegetto says he's strong enough to kill Boo, and Boo says he's done playing around and will send Vegetto into the next world. Vegetto then says Boo can try (I didn't screen cap that).
They begin fighting again. Vegetto appears to beat up on Boo, but Boo doesn't seem too impressed. He regenerates nonetheless. The FUNimation dub makes Boo sound as if he's genuinely upset about the beating Vegetto gave him.
Boo starts to go a little crazy and appears to power up, but all this just results in him creating a planet buster. No increase in power is noted. Vegetto calls all of Boo's planet busting threat just a bunch of "bluster," and says it won't beat him. After he sends the ball into space (which Boo grins at), he moves up to Boo's position, and they talk a bit (Boo says Vegetto's been toying with him all along in the FUNimation dub in the first screen cap). After Boo says Vegetto hasn't surpassed him, Vegetto questions this and then transforms.
And that's it.
So what do you think? Was Boo right that he was still superior to Base Vegetto? Or was Base Vegetto actually superior and Boo just couldn't admit it?
Personally, I'm trusting Boo on this one. I mean, Vegetto
does transform for a reason after Boo's last comment IMO. At most, I'd meet halfway and put them as equals.
