This is something I thought about after I watched that DeathBattle video back in the day when it came out. The reason why Goku wouldn't beat Superman is because within the very Dragon Ball, power levels are freaking inconsistent. After every arc Goku and company were inadvertently nerfed because of Studio's inability to properly portrait their power capabilities and to help them avoid having to blow galaxies in order to properly showcase powers by the end of the series.
For example, when Freeza is in Namek and is transforming into his perfect form, the whole planet, many times bigger than Earth shakes completely to the point oceans start to levitate, yet when Goku is transforming to SSJ3 a similar effect is had even though Earth is smaler and SSJ3 should be several times stronger than Freezas transformation. IDK if that part was canon but if Vegeta could bl0w up planets when his power level wasn't above 20k (when he was traveling with Nappa) Vegeta SSJ4 should be able to wipe a whole Galaxy with a Final Flash.
Goku shouldn't win the Deathbattle 2 if they go by the same logic they did in the first one, because Superman is too full of BS that even SSG can come close to.
