Give me a moment and I'll get the direct quote. Chapter: 476 (DBZ 282), P9.3 Piccolo: “If that bastard felt like it, he could wipe out the entire Earth, up here included, in the blink of an eye…!” Goku: “It’s alright, I don’t think he’ll take out the Earth. After all, I told him that in 2 days, someone stronger than me would fight him, and he seemed happy…” Edited by EMIYA, Jan 18 2014, 04:25 PM.

Goku makes it pretty darn clear that he's sure that Gotenks will be stronger. I again state many times, if there's one thing Akira Toriyama paid attention to, its the dialogue. If AT didn't want Gotenks to be stronger, then he would not have worded Goku's statement in such a way or would have implied in such a way that Gotenks was weaker.

Mozilla Firefox Favourite Manga Hellsing, Elfen Lied, Trigun Maximum	It's the fact that the statement is made (and uncontradicted) that makes it true. It's like when Gotenks Boo states that a fusion of Goku and Gohan won't defeat him. The specific form we'll leave out and just say "Gohkan" in general. This is a statement AT put in the manga to describe that Gotenks Boo is still at a level that Gohkan still probably wouldn't be able to beat (but could still rival perhaps) We don't need to get a feat for this, it would be redundant because if you had to have a feat to prove everything, it would get hectic. We take the idea that Gotenks Boo is correct in his notion because its not contradicted later on in some way. Otherwise without feats, AT would have to constantly add in side notes in his manga saying things like "Boo's statement is true, a fusion of Gohkan would only rival Boo at best." and you know, he just doesn't need to do that. As another example, it would be like asking Cui to show feats that have him at Saiyan Arc Vegeta's level. We don't need that, we infer that this is a truth until its otherwise contradicted.

Firefox Favourite Manga Dragonball	This debate....again. As for the assumption thing....Goku knows how strong fusion made weak warriors. He specifically states it made weak warriors fierce warriors and he knows how astoundingly strong the SSj kids are and he knows how strong Fat Buu is from fighting him... His assumption is a reasonable conclusion based upon evidence. Is it proof that SSj Gotenks WILL beat Fat Buu? No. It is proof that SSj Gotenks CAN beat Fat Buu. Yes. The same way SSj3 Goku can beat Fat Buu. These type of statements allow us to tier our opponents with SSJ Gotenks, Fat Buu and SSj3 Goku being roughly in the same tier at that time. I don't care who's really stronger at that point, just that all 3 are in the same realm of power. For the most part. ^^^That said, I agree with everything Brofist has already posted as well. It's just you don't need to specifically have SSj Gotenks stronger than SSj3 Goku before the ROSAT for him to outclass him after it... Edited by petewentz, Jan 18 2014, 04:47 PM.

Goku later reveals the he could have, in fact, beaten Boo all along, and with that all bets are off. SSJ Gotenks could very well be equal to or stronger than Boo but still weaker than SSJ3 Goku.

Mozilla Firefox Favourite Manga Hellsing, Elfen Lied, Trigun Maximum	I'm referring to the "Fusion" Gohkan not the "Potara" Gohkan. Obviously Potara Gohkan of any form would decimate Boo considering Gohan alone wasn't exactly double digits weaker than Gotenks Boo in the first place and there's none of that "equal powers needed" with Potara. But its clear that Boo is referring to a regular fusion of the two and implementing the specific knowledge he has on fusion and then finally coming to a conclusion.

Someone enlighten me I haven't seen or read this part of the series in a while goku never outright states that he expects ssj gotenks to fight buu, but it is a reasonable assumption based on 2 things. 1. goku examined their power in ssj, not base, before deciding they would do for the fusion. 2. base gotenks got the tar beat out of him by buu.
