In the world of Dragon Ball, there are very few characters who are stronger than Goku and Vegeta, the main characters of the story. One of them is Broly, who although has had an immense story shift in Dragon Ball Super, still is filled with immense strength and raw power that can potentially defeat Goku and Vegeta.
In the Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie, The Son of Paragus, Broly, is a formidable Saiyan mutant. He was raised by his father on the planet Vampa after King Vegeta discarded him from Planet Vegeta due to his alleged higher power level than Prince Vegeta’s. Cheelai and Lemo of the Frieza Force eventually saved him 48 years later.
Be it in the Dragon Ball Z series or the Dragon Ball Super series, Broly is shown to be extremely strong and no one knows why he has more potential than Goku and Vegeta combined. However, one Dragon Ball Super theory perfectly explains the reason behind Broly being so insanely strong.
Theory Explains Why Broly is Potentially Stronger Than Goku and Vegeta
The reason for Broly’s strength can be traced back to another Sayian with incredible natural strength, Gohan. Saiyan hybrids, such as Gohan, have far more potential and ability than pure Saiyans, as fans may have noticed throughout the series. Gohan achieved Super Saiyan 2 status at the age of 11.
There is a reason for this, and it is due to S-Cells, which cause Super Saiyan transformations and an improvement in profusion depending on the warrior’s demeanor, with empathy and generosity resulting in far more cell numbers and thus a greater strength. As a hybrid, Gohan didn’t have any obsession with fighting at all. In the case of Broly, he was born with an inherent innocence and kindness, which is the source of his insane natural talent and power.
On Earth, Gohan was the purest Saiyan thus, his power levels were unmatchable even for Goku and Vegeta. The same was true with Broly. He friended a monster who wanted to kill him and when Frieza killed his father, he felt a rage inside him, despite his father being cruel to him in the past. Thus it can be said that emotions affect the level of power within Saiyans, and innocent and compassionate characters like Gohan and Broly have much higher power levels.

Dragon Ball Super chapter 101 spoilers Show Broly Fighting Vegeta
Broly also is present in the ongoing Dragon Ball Super arc and he recently surfaced back in the latest spoilers of Chapter 101 of Dragon Ball Super. According to spoilers for Chapter 101, Vegeta and Broly engaged in a practice fight. When both Saiyans were in their base forms, Vegeta defeated Broly as expected.
Still not willing to give up, Broly gave Vegeta a forehead punch. After that, Vegeta attempted to hide in an apparent attempt to make Broly use his Ki to find him. Ironically, Broly picked up the ability to recognize Ki very quickly. However, he found it difficult to match Vegeta’s fighting style. Broly tried asking Vegeta for advice following the altercation but was of no help.
It is interesting to see Broly being a part of the Saiyan group in the series as it can lead to Broly joining them in future battles, thus making it an exciting bout for Dragon Ball and especially for Broly fans. Dragon Ball Super chapter 101 is set to be released on Friday, January 19.
