When Vegeta was about to kill Fat Boo and Mr. Satan begged him not to do it, he stated "what if he spawns that evil Boo again? It could be the end of Earth...". Why would Vegeta be worried by that if Gohan and Gotenks could defeat him? Goku's solution to it was also "we are going to train and combat it next time"...doesn't it seem strange he also gloss over Gohan and Gotenks' ability to defeat him?

Because the boo could be spawned and instantly blow up the planet.

Did Vegeta ever see Gohan or Gotenks aside from seeing them inside Boo? And yeah what Super-Saiyan said. Also Boo's anatomy is so weird they don't know what could happen. When they were all removed he should have technically turned back into Gray-Boo but he didn't.

But Goku's response to Vegeta was: "we are going to train so we can defeat him next time". It doesn't seem like Goku was considering Kid Boo blowing up the Earth right away. He was considering a fight.

Well given that not even SSjin3 Goku who is equal to Boohan couldn't even defeat Pure Boo. What makes you think that Gohan and Gotenks can do? :troll

You're overthinking it.

Now that Goku is completely alive again he has no desire to rely on Gohan and Gotenks. He/Vegeta want to do it themselves if it comes to it.

Vegeta was being pessimistic, whilst Goku saw the potential of a challenge. Saiyan Arc Vegeta was a planetary threat and gave Goku hell, yet Goku let him go.

But would Vegeta be pessimistic to the point he'd think Kid Boo could defeat Gohan? Goku said they will train so they can be up to the challenge were this to happen again... I find it strange with there being 2 warriors available stronger than Kid Boo, don't you think? Only if AT indeed planned that part as Kid Boo being superior to even the other warriors.

As said above, it was due to Pure Boo's unpredictability and tendency for mindless destruction. Gohan or Gotenks being around aren't going to make a difference if they don't get to him before he destroys Earth. Vegeta has also been shown to be highly pragmatic whenever the situation doesn't concern his personal pride, so eliminating a potential threat before it spawned would be in his best interest, especially when he was extremely close to being removed from all forms of existence because of the first Pure Boo.

The fate of Earth is what was on Vegeta's mind; Kid Buu doesn't need to be the strongest to do away with the planet, and he could Kai Kai all over the place if he wanted to. Goku's thinking from a battle perspective and seemingly doesn't want an easy way out, because irrespective of Gotenks/Gohan, there's also the possible fusion of Gogeta or Vegito, which he didn't mention either.

The fact this thought is being entertained is amusing to me.

If Kid Boo destroying the Earth was indeed in Vegeta's mind, don't you think he'd add a "but he can just destroy the Earth!!" to Goku's response, in which he merely stated they should train to prevent this from happening? I think Vegeta would have made his point more clearly if the possibility of Earth's destruction were really a pertinent thought on his mind.

I didn't ignore them. I replied to the "Kid Boo can destroy the Earth" hypothetical scenario. Why'd Goku foresee a combat with him if he were truly entertaining the possibility of Kid Boo blowing Earth up at first glance?

Doesn't the way Goku said that implies the alternative that had consisted on them growing stronger though?

Besides, what about Goku stating that the world would be doomed weren't for Mr. Boo and Hercule?

I don’t understand your first sentence.

Sure he stated that. They were instrumental in Earth surviving that battle. However, to fit into my point, Goku doesn’t want to be in that position again. Vegeta wants to eliminate the fat Boo right away to prevent such a situation, but Goku wants to use it as an opportunity to further push himself to the next level so that he won’t need to rely on people again.
