There\u2019s never been a better time for a fight chant. <\/p>

When it comes to all-time anime, there are probably a few characters we\u2019d like to see take each other on.<\/p>\n

For many fans, it\u2019s a dream to see Dragon Ball<\/a>\u2019s Goku take on the mighty force of One-Punch Man\u2019s Saitama. Both characters are known for being titans in their separate worlds, but without a direct comparison, it\u2019s difficult to know who would come out on top in a fight.<\/p>\n

If an anime multiverse does suddenly appear, we\u2019ll know exactly who to vouch for. Here\u2019s who we think would win in an all-out fight between Goku and Saitama.<\/p>\n

How strong is Goku?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On his own, Goku is considered to be the strongest mortal in his universe. He has an incredible work ethic, which means he continues to strive to be the best in whatever he does.<\/p>\n

As well as this, Dragon Ball fans will know that Goku comes in many forms<\/a> \u2013 21 as of last count, to be exact. By undertaking training and perfecting his previous forms, he\u2019s managed to supersize into everything from a giant ape to the infamous golden version of himself.<\/p>\n

According to Dragon Ball, Goku had enough power to take down an army when he was a child, so one person should theoretically be an easy task for him as an adult. However, Goku is known to never enter a fight with all guns blazing and can hold back his strength.<\/p>\n

How strong is Saitama?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Though his physical prowess might not seem to match that of Goku\u2019s, Saitama from One-Punch Man is thought of to have immeasurable strength.<\/p>\n

Annoyingly, the true extent of Saitama\u2019s power has never been properly quantified in the anime series. It wasn\u2019t until chapter 157 of the manga that fans finally got a sense of where his boundaries might be, establishing that there is a minimum threshold to what he is able to achieve.<\/p>\n

Much of Saitama\u2019s ability relies on his physical strength, though he isn\u2019t merely bound to punches. Nothing he defeats seems to take much of his effort and, as the name suggests, it only takes a single punch to get the job done.<\/p>\n

Who would win in a fight between Goku vs Saitama?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Though a battle between Goku and Saitama is difficult to picture, their strengths and weaknesses should give us a good idea of a possible outcome.<\/p>\n

Even if Goku was able to use his highest form of power, Saitama\u2019s one-punch certainty means a fight wouldn\u2019t last for long. If we are to take Saitama\u2019s power and accuracy at face value, it almost doesn\u2019t matter who his opponent is \u2014 he would win outright.<\/p>\n

This is further proved by Goku\u2019s tendency to be slow off the mark when it comes to starting a battle. A fight between the pair is something that could be over in seconds, with one punch quite literally ending it all.<\/p>
