Showing signs of effort or screaming doesn't equate to not be able to hold back, SSJ2 Kid Gohan showed signs of effort while firing the Kamehameha towards Perfect Cell:Gotenks yelled, "Revenge!!" when he shot that mouth blast. I highly doubt he purposefully held back for it, that was just the moment when Gotenks decisively took the upper hand since Gotenks only took cosmetic damage from Boo's mouth blast while Gotenks' blast disrupted Boo's fighting rhythm and damaged him. Before that, we saw Gotenks get a nosebleed from being headbutted by Boo and he felt visible pain from being hurled into the Kami palace (lookout).
Even then, Gotenks seems to recover quite rapidly, this in relation to how in another instances, characters kept the scratches during the whole fight, meaning that it didn't actually do much, Gotenks punched him and basically send him flying to the floor, before of that, Gotenks while making him a ball was able to left him visibly damaged, but Buu has regenetation.
Perfect Cell was toying with Vegeta, yet, he is able to take his ki blasts as if nothing while walking, his superiority towards Vegeta has to be much smaller than the one Super Buu had over SSJ Gotenks.Super Boo was toying with Gotenks when he was still SSJ (it's stated that Boo was mentally weakened for the first time when Gotenks went SSJ3 and fought him since no other opponent came close to his power before and Gotenks was at least equal now), and the SGKA is a highly amplified Ki attack. Vegetto even had to avoid the ghosts coming from Gohan-Boo even though he was far stronger than him. And what blew Boo up was the ghost exploding inside his stomach, not outside.
Thing is, that statement is referring to Buu as a whole (including Fat Buu) or just his respective current form? If it's the first one, Goku has already fought on par with him.
When did Vegetto felt in need to avoid that technique? I mean, he just repeled them using lasers with his fingers and mocked that technique.
Base Goku showed to be able to cut Gotenks Buu from behind, despite him being vastly stronger than Goku:Not to mention, post-Rosat SSJ Gotenks is worlds above SSJ Goku. SSJ Goku wouldn't even last a minute against SPC.
Even then, I don't disagree, SSJ Goku is weaker than even Perfect Cell, let alone his Super Perfect form, but don't know why he has to be worlds below SSJ Gotenks, the only way would be if we take at face value Trunks' estimation about Base Gotenks Post ~ Fat Buu.
