But if he is fighting at full power while not actually being at full power, that can only mean he's fighting at full capacity in his current state. What else could full power mean? Herms even elaborates:

Chapter: 341 (DBZ 147), P8.4-5, P9.
Piccolo: “Have you noticed too, Gohan?...”
Gohan: “Y-yes…”
Piccolo: “Son Goku is rushing the match for some reason…He’s already putting out close to his full power…But even so, what’s with that miserable condition of his?...”
Tenshinhan: “Th-that miserable condition…!? What are you talking about? Goku’s overwhelmingly pushing him back…!”
Piccolo: “It’s not that. As a Super Saiyan, Goku’s power should be more stupendous than this…”
Note: Several people thought this quote was contradictory, due to how Piccolo says Goku is using almost his full power but should have much better power than that. To me though it seems pretty straightforward: Goku is using almost all the power he has in his current sick condition, but Piccolo realizes Goku's full power should be much more than that.

I'm not saying he wasn't fighting at his full capacity in his current state. What I'm saying is that his current state in general was shit, not just his battle power.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter.

Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

I'm getting REALLY sick of this....but here it is. Another revised list :crazy: Here's Cell Arc, will do Buu Arc soon. I jacked up everyone's power a bit and fit them with the power gaps accordingly. Feedback is appreciated!

Cell Arc:

A new type of list. In this list, the "BIG BAD" will have power level of 120 million. So, this starts from freeza saga.

Idk really. I'll find inconsistencies in my Buu arc list because of the stuff I put in the Cell Arc. So change IMO is needed.

So his current state would have a battle power below Piccolo's. We're agreeing on that?

Goku's battle power may be greater, but I believe he would lose against Piccolo in a fight.

So if Goku has a battle power higher than Piccolo's, but blows weaker than Piccolo's, he's not fighting at full power, because his blows could be stronger.

He is fighting at full power, meaning as best as he can, but he is also sloppy because he can't perform as well as he would if he was healthy.

But if his blows can be stronger, they're not at full power. Sloppy only has to refer to form and him rushing the match. Sloppy doesn't mean weaker.

It's probably better to think of Goku's performance against Nineteen as "full effort" rather than "full power." He's doing the best he can, and you can tell that from watching him. But in terms of power output it's not what he should normally be capable of.

That's what I'm trying to say.

Also, Piccolo isn't a punching machine, he can only sense ki and use his eyes. It's impossible for him to measure Goku's punches, he can only sense Goku's ki & watch his performance. His ki was at its max, but not as high as it should be, and his performance was sloppy, not as good as it should be. Giving sick Goku a battle power number is pointless IMO.

Perhaps we interpret it differently then. The way I interpret is that while Goku is not outputting as much Ki as he normally would, he is still able to go all out in the lowered level that he is at. For example:

Healthy Goku
-Full Power (Ki): 10
-Power Output (Ki): 10
-Striking Power: 10

Sick Goku
-Full Power (Ki): 10 (not accessible because he is sick)
-Power Output (Ki): 6
-Striking Power: 6

So Goku's Ki should be far greater like Piccolo says, but he's also able to go all out in his current sick state. Unless I'm misinterpreting your post, is that not what you're saying, Kaboom?

I don't see it like that, so let's just agree to disagree I guess.

This only corroborate my theory that Goku was supressed initially against #19... and then increased his power instantly.

No it doesn't. Piccolo says Goku is putting out close to his full power, but his Ki should be far more stupendous. That has nothing to do with voluntarily suppressing Super Saiyan.
