There are many theories, but no one cares for them.
Example:
Goku blows up earth.
Result, Goku sad, Kryptonite explodes, everyone dies. Goku technically wins.
Its all about technicalities.
None.
They make some good points. And all the Superman fanboys can come up with is that Superman should win because he has more history as a character...
"you have to establish the power level for goku. at his weakest, he couldn't handle superboy. at his strongest, he could probably stalemate galactus."
"Goku, in the beginning of his career, when his powerlevel was in the thousands, could de atmoize an entire planet. He continually gets stronger. Sort of like the Hulk, but not just in strength."
None.
Superman is INVINCIBLE except to kryptonite, which Goku doesn't have. Goku can still be hurt.
Stupendously durable, not "invincible". I watched a relatively early episode in the Dragonball series when I was bored, and destroying mountains was "lolwut?" And, of course, every story arc has to involve an enemy that's OMGWTF10x stronger in order to be a challenge, which means that every story arc, Goku has to become OMGWTF11x stronger.
Superman can shoot lasers out of his eyes.
Lasers which typically take a few seconds to melt steel. DBZ's universe involves energy balls that would vaporize it instantly.
Remember, superman is so fast he could move in such a way Goku couldn't even see him to teleport in time
For some reason, Superman always seems to punch so slowly it can be seen. In DBZ, attacks are thrown at rates that would make a hundred stacked Cracklings cry.
Superman could go after his loved ones and force him to surrender, whereas very few ppl know Superman is Clark Kent.
lol
None.
Superman doesnt take hostages, but would surrender if you took a civilian hostage
Well then again Goku wouldnt either, so we're gonna see a fight either way

It's irrelevant anyways, because pretty much anyone in the DBZ universe that is friendly with Goku is powerful enough to hold their own against superman.
None.
Im pretty sure Superman moved the earth before in a really old comic...I don't think Goku does that.
None.

Even The bald guy? OLOL.
@ "SUPERMAN IS INVINCIBLE 'CEPT TO KRYPTONITE"
Remember when Superman fought Darksied? Dark sied used his omega beam and it cut through supermans heart like nothing. Like his beam actually came out through his back.
Anyways if were going to bring up supermans weakness to kryptonite, we should also bring up the fact that goku had that heart problem and almost died. Superman also only gets his powers whens hes a certain distance form the earths yellow sun or something right?
Goku Did Krypton!!!
None.
Krillin, I wasn't sure how to spell his name but i assumed he was the number one bald bro.
None.
Theres no way sensu-bean-boy or anyone from DBZ could handle Superman.
None.
scene from the 1993 comic "The death of superman" doomsday and superman basically fight eachother until superman kills doomsday and dies of his wounds.
Edit: so to be fair, goku can come back to life whenever he damn feels like and superman reqs. many years and lots of canon before hes either ressurrected or cloned in all his glory, took them 3months to put out more issues, which followed with superboy a 'not-fully-grown-up' superman clone without his memories hence without supermans stand on alot of things besides saving people. i have one of the first issues of superboy, its a good comic sadly worth jack...
None.
If they can both revive instantly, then they both suck.
None.
So why is that we're assuming Goku can't get kryptonite? Theoretically Goku could be in Superman's universe when this all goes down. Or they could be in some mixed universe where Goku can find kryptonite and Superman can search for the dragonballs. Dear god...
I voted Goku.

A lot of you are talking about the both of them blowing up their home planets, blowing up the sun, holding loved ones hostage, or something in that manner, but you still have to think about their personalities. They would never do those things because they are nice and don't want anyone else to be hurt. Oh, and Superman would win because of lazers coming out of the eyes and not being able to die because Goku doesn't have kryptonite in his universe.
Edit: If you think Goku has access to kryptonite, how could he possibly know that was his weakness?
None.

Goku can also shoot lasers out of his eyes.
Also, Chuiu, obviously SSJ4 Gogeta, or Super Vegito, or Omega Shenron (Who is basically Dooms Day, but with the ability to destroy worlds) could defeat superman.

GT references FTL! Toriyama does not like GT so GT is fail.
Anyways, Goku would most defiantly win.
Sensu-bean FTW.
None.
Toriyama stated that GT "is more or less the direction he would have taken the series."
