I'd go by the flight aura argument, considering Toriyama was surprisingly consistent with it necessitating a certain threshold of Ki. Before the cries of "B-but Videl broke Spopovich's neck!" Spopovich was noted to need to put in barely any power to his Ki blast as to not accidentally kill Videl, showing he was suppressing his Ki, not to mention we clearly see Videl lacks any aura whereas Spopovich and Yamu's are on full display. Whilst I'm unsure of the accuracy to the Japanese manga, the anime even refers to it as a Kiai-ho; a small Ki blast only slightly greater than a kiai in intensity.

All that said, I'd argue Spopovich is indeed above the likes of Raditz, so he solos as long as hax such as the Akkumite beam and Mafuba are banned, or as long as he's aware of his opponents' abilities and is going for the kill.

Didn't Dende have an aura as a toddler though? Power unlock or not, I very much doubt he was above Raditz as a child of the Dragon clan.

I agree with CC, but just to answer the ki dilemma; I think it depends on how you use your ki whether you have an aura or not. Dende doesn't need to have a high power level to use have an aura since he's a healer and not a fighter, he's strong in the ways of support while Spopovitch is clearly a fighter.

Majin Spopovich was essentially a zombie imbued with dark magic. His powers far exceed his physical limitations which is why he was initially bested by Videl in hand-to-hand combat. It's only after her stamina capped out when he gained the upper hand.

Unless Spopovich is aware of everyone's abilities, even BoDB Goku can tear him apart with his bare hands.
