I think the fight comes to a halt after Goku styles on him to be honest. Before that, it'd look like a competitive spar (e.g. like their first fight, early/base, but roles reversed)
Toughness is more of a factor when opposed by relentless beings like Kid Buu who will just smash the weaker fighter from pillar to post with no care for dialogue. Goku can at least recognise when a fight with a fellow teammate has run its course and offer a future rematch. Vegeta leaves the battlefield with the same grief as his post-Gohan-defeating-Cell self, then continues training.
