I also don't remember any feats that make Goku's AD as good as Saitama's, either. Afaik he has to recover from a grievous injury to gain notable jumps in power.
It don't need to be nescessary grieverius injury, If he takes a lot of demage and after recovers his health, he grow stronger. Like in Namek.

He can actually do that in this match with Senzu Beans.

Those are actually serious injuries. They just resist against pain which is why it doesn't look a lot to us sometimes. Even if he do that, It doesn't compare to Saitama's AD.
 
I don't think it'd be in-character for Goku to instantly bust out Super Saiyan and one shot like people are suggesting? Goku seeks out good fights just like Saitama.

Though, wouldn't Goku be able to sense Saitama's immense power? However, the OP didn't mention this was a battle to the death so there is that possibility Goku will see it as a very intense sparring session instead and want to test out Saitama's power with his base form, like how he did initially with Broly.
 
This Goku tries to test out his opponent's power even when it is a battle to the death (See Goku vs. Meta-Cooler or GT Goku vs. Sigma Force).
 
Goku can sense Saitama is a good yet powerful person and would want to test his limits.

Anyway what are the arguments for both again? I'm assuming Saitama AD is better though Goku still has RPL himself

Take this with a grain of salt.

Goku Advantages:
  • Can go SS and one shot Saitama. Can't in Base

  • More skilled
Saitama Advantanges:
  • Nuts Accelerated Development that would allow him to beat Goku

  • Technique Copying

  • Type 2 Immortality to stay alive.
Though I really don't think Goku would immediately aim to kill Saitama, especially when he is known to want to fight strong opponents. More times than not, I see Goku testing out Saitama and Saitama being able to KO Goku (Because Saitama doesn't kill people lol) because Saitama's AD exponentially jumps him above Goku. Goku going SS immediately and one-shotting Saitama would rely on Goku thinking that Saitama is some origin of all evil guy that wants to destroy all universes. Like Goku Black
 
His AD should extend to AP, Durability, LS, and Speed right?
Accelerated Development (Training & Battle, Physical Stats...
  • Physical Statistics: The user's strength, speed and/or durability grows at a faster pace than normal. This can be further separated by which of these statistics grow at a faster rate.
 
Voting Saitama for the reasons provided by @Catbowtie.

Though still, Namek Goku is infinitely more fair.

If this was Namek Goku, then they will have similar stats and Goku can't end the fight and AP stomp whenever he wants by going Super Saiyan.
 
Can go SS and one shot Saitama. Can't in Base
It's not One Shot. The difference is lower than 8x, though very close. Immortalily type 2 and instant explosive growth might kick in here and give Saitama the victory. Though it's not in character, Goku wouldn't transform into SS instantly.
Technique Copying
He also has Garou's techniques as well. dura neg abilities, reflections, instinctive action, stats amp etc etc.

Yes. Everything except intelligence. Or maybe he's so smart that no one can understand it :d
 
If Saitama can copy goku's fighting style, couldn't goku do the same? Anime Goku is just the same as manga if just more skilled and can copy martial arts masters when he was just a kid

EDIT: I'm leaning towards Saitama though I'm still waiting for more arguments

He's kinda already using it, dunno why he'd copy the copy of his fighting style.

Is it on the level of Cosmic Garou? No? Goku gets out copied. It is on the level of Garou, if not better? Saitama wins by AP and out-speeding.

Yea was going to mention that, but Saitama doesn't usually use it In-Character

Goku can do it. Though not sure about Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, Since it requires the understanding and the manipulation of the flow of energy of raging rivers.

Also most of them are dura neg, so it might be over before Goku copies it.
 
From I recall we don't except Saitama's speed growing nearly at the same rate as his Ap
It still grows extremely fast. It's superior to Garou's who was equal to Black Sperm and then blitzed him after milliseconds. After Garou copied him, they went to the moon of jupiter, IO, he was blitzing him already. After that he made him a sandbox through the entire IO.
 
We accept it growing at a rate beyond Garou, which is more than enough already.

That's kinda wrong. It's true that he doesn't use them normally, but the reasoning is that Saitama doesn't have any reason to use them because he's too strong. He'd use them in this case where they are in comparable levels.
 
The idea that Goku, who can detect Saitama's PL won't go SS and end the fight once he sees the (unlikely) AD boost, is asinine

Especially since in SBA, losing would make something bad happens
