Majin Vegeta vs Majin Buu
When Fat Buu initially emerged from his cocoon, he defied expectations and didn't appear immediately menacing. Although he swiftly defeated Gohan and killed Dabura, it was clear from Vegeta's earlier comments that neither of them posed a significant threat. Meanwhile, Vegeta had recently attained Super Saiyan 2 status through Babidi's powers, showcasing his peak strength by easily overpowering Goku in a fight.
Despite Vegeta being the first real challenge for Buu, it became evident that he was outmatched, and Buu's resilience made him nearly invincible. The significance of this battle lies not in its competitiveness but in Vegeta's unconventional resolution. Recognizing the formidable threat posed by Buu, Vegeta took drastic measures. He incapacitated Trunks and Goten, urging Piccolo to escort them to safety. Openly expressing his intention to sacrifice himself, Vegeta made this fight memorable by putting others ahead of himself.
In a self-destructive blast, he unleashed his power to eliminate Buu. In his final moments, Vegeta's thoughts were not about gaining more strength or his Saiyan pride but solely focused on saving his family, and even Goku.
