The epic Freiza vs Goku debate

I dissagree.

SSJ Goku was only stalling with 100% freiza, until the wish with the dragonballs were made. After that, he pwned Freiza. Yeah, I give brute strength to Freiza, but overall statistics, SSJ Goku was on top.

And again, Tien's Tri Beam did no damage.

Damage isn't criteria for equal power here. I'm talking about how character struggles translate plot themes into obvious physical violence often by having two "equal" powers collide, sometimes just for a single attack.

Kaioken x20 Goku was equal to half-power final form Freiza for a single attack, but his Kamehameha really only pissed Freiza off and didn't do any significant damage. In this same way, Tenshinhan's Shinkikoho was able to stun Semi-perfect Cell without wounding him. It has to be equal to the opponent, because in all other times throughout the series even if a weak attack lands at point-blank range and it's not blocked it's still completely ineffective (for instance, Kami/Piccolo's attack hit Imperfect Cell at the end of the Piccolo-17 fight and did less than Tenshinhan's Shinkikoho against Semi-perfect Cell).

And full power final form Freiza was going blow-for-blow with SSJ Goku even after the dragon was summoned and used, and Goku didn't try to leave until he saw that Freiza was getting tired. But, up until that point Freiza and Goku were fighting evenly.
