Or was he just over-confident? Even-though the way he said it doesn't really imply over-confidence.
@Papasmurf, so you think he was able to estimate well-enough? Remember, he couldn't even sense Ki, but from a story-perspective it makes sense, I guess since the highest power from the last arc (even a bit higher this time, if Mecha-Freeza was higher) got one-shotted by the new character. AT has done that quite a few times.Papasmurf said:Nah, I don't think he was overconfident
Chapter: 329 (DBZ 135), P14.1
Cold: “A small planet…Wouldn’t it be better if you just wiped it out in one shot?”
Freeza: “That wouldn’t satisfy me…I want to make [Goku] well acquainted with my powered-up self…”
Chapter: 330 (DBZ 136), P13.3-4
Cold: “The Earthlings don’t matter, but the Super Saiyan alone we absolutely must exterminate, by any means. The one who holds the greatest power in the universe must without a doubt be our clan”
Freeza: “We can definitely defeat him if we go at him together, Papa. And I’ve powered up too, so I think I can probably go alone.”
So do you think it's a possibility he's still below Goku?sei'taer said:Organic furiza was never in goku's league. Closer than some of the other fights we've seen where one fighter clearly outclasses another, but not that close.
He can't sense chi, so he doesn't know for sure. Using words like might and probably doesn't instill confidence. That's the whole reason his father is along for the trip.

He can't sense ki, but he was able to estimate well enough that his 2nd form's full powa was too much for weighted Piccolo, that Goku's ace was nothing to his 50% in 4th form, etc. (albeit, he did overestimate Ginyu ) After having fought Goku at full power on Namek and having lasted long enough that Goku couldn't take the upper hand until his ki began to fall, I think he should know well enough how much stronger he'd need to be to defeat him. Plus, he even doesn't entirely underestimate Goku since he brought backup and said with some uncertainty that he could win on his own. Doesn't sound like his usual cocky self to me.
