Who wins? If they fought each other instead of Beerus, how does it go?

Buu still has better stamina than Gotenks whose fusion could run out of time, it was not an easy task for Kid Buu at the beginning of the fight to deal with him, is less possible for Gotenks to win just in base form.

Gotenks has a full half hour.

I'd agree with this. Mr. Buu was impressive against Kid Buu, much more than I thought.

is less possible for Gotenks to win just in base form.
What makes you say that? What if Base Gotenks is much stronger than Kid Buu?

I'm taking into account the possibility of Base Gotenks post = Fat Buu, which was stated by Trunks. Fat Buu is obviously weaker than Kid Buu and Good Buu is less than half of Fat Buu's original power.

Kid Buu was dealing too much time against Good Buu, who was progressively getting weaker as stated by Vegeta. And this is a Buu that doesn't get tired (as opposed of Gotenks) as stated by Goku:

Chapter: 510 (DBZ 316), P12.1
Context: after Goku fights pure Boo for awhile
Goku: “…Dammit…! Like I thought, even if I keep doing the same thing, that bastard’s stamina doesn’t fall…! He just returns to being good as new right away…”

Trunks never said that.
Chapter: 489 (DBZ 295), P3.5
Context: Trunks doesn’t like the idea of fighting Boo as a Super Saiyan 3 from the start
Trunks: “I think…that we’ve already progressed so much that even in a regular state Fusion, we’ll be about equal with Majin Boo...”

The only possibilities are Fat Buu (the one he fought) and Super Buu (which was proven to be wrong). Therefore, since Gotenks didn't prove how much he progressed from pre to post, we have to take this at face value to actually estimate his power.

No, Base Gotenks is as strong as Estimated Super Buu, not Actual Super Buu. Estimated Super Buu is far superior to Ssj Gotenks, who is superior to Fat Buu.

Even then, did they noticed that something outside of his appearence changed upon seeing him? Doesn't seem to give the impression. Trunks seems to be talking about what he has carrying about his knowledge.

Buu's ki is like a lie, they misjudged him. But based on their misjudgements we can tell that Estimated Super Buu >>> Fat Buu.

That is just something Goku come up with to justify why he didn't finish Fat Buu when he had the chance to.

I don't think that could be the case, even after Piccolo told them that Super Buu is more powerful in every way than Fat Buu (they doesn't seem to be paying attention tho), the only reason Goten (since Trunks doesn't seem to be taking things that seriously until later) began to take things seriously is due to Chichi getting killed in the hands of this new Buu.

Also judging by how Trunks speaks he is comparing his fused self pre in relation to his current fused self, and how he stack up against Buu by now, as well as how Gotenks stack up against Buu now.

Goku knew something was off immediately about Majin Buu's ki when he and Vegeta first sensed him.

No. The boys confirm what Piccolo is saying, they sense him too and realize Super Buu is above Gotenks. Otherwise they wouldn't be able to make a prediction, a prediction that is backed up by Piccolo.

Exactly.

1. Super Buu is above Super Saiyan Gotenks.
2. Base Gotenks surpasses Super Saiyan Gotenks enough to where they think they can match Super Buu's power.

It's simple.

Doesn’t this actually make Gotenks ~ Fat Boo more likely? The boys said Super Boo didn’t look much stronger than Fat.

Because at the beginning, Fat Buu wasn't someone quite powerful, but Goku is there to inform the reader that he is hiding a lot more of power and they have to be cautious. When Buu makes a power up, Goku says that only he and Vegeta would be able to beat him if they were together without knowing his regeneration capabilities.

It doesn't make sense for them to be told that this new Buu powered up and needing to be informed considering past instances:

Chapter: 458 (DBZ 264), P9.1
Context: as Vegeta and Goku fight as Super Saiyan 2s
Trunks: “He-hey, what is this? It’s a super-duper astounding ki…Who is it?...Is it papa and the others?”
Goten: “I-I can’t tell…”

Chapter: 462 (DBZ 268), P1.2-4, P2.5
Context: after Boo beats Dabra
Gohan: “It-it rose…Majin Boo’s ki rose explosively…He’s str-strong…Too strong…This is unbelievable…”
Trunks: “…What the…!? This time I feel an incredible ki over there too…What’s going on?...”
[ ]
Goku (talking to Vegeta): “…It changed into an outrageous ki…So Majin Boo really isn’t anyone ordinary after all…This ain’t no time to be doing this kinda thing…! We’re the ones who let this monster out…”

Chapter: 473 (DBZ 279), P13.4
Context: after Goku becomes a Super Saiyan 2
Trunks: "Th-that old guy...He has about as much power as papa..."

Piccolo just told them that and at the beginning they doesn't seem to be in a hurry nor to take things seriously, when Chichi got killed, then Goten began to do it (Trunks still was taking his time and this is a Trunks that knows that his father died because of Buu), although Buu hasn't done anything impressive in their eyes or something that he would be unable to do before. Piccolo and Trunks expresses two diferent possibilities, Piccolo states that Gotenks might be able to win and Trunks that they would fight him evenly.
Exactly.

1. Super Buu is above Super Saiyan Gotenks.
2. Base Gotenks surpasses Super Saiyan Gotenks enough to where they think they can match Super Buu's power.

It's simple.
The quote alone seems to be referring to Base Gotenks pre losing to Fat Buu.

"I think…that we’ve already progressed so much"

From pre to post.

"that even in a regular state Fusion, we’ll be about equal with Majin Boo.."

Despite of before having losing badly.
Then why is Piccolo shocked that Gotenks is being treated like a child while fighting Beerus?
Well, Buu was continuosly coming back against Beerus. I don't think their performances mean much, either.
