Re: Tien (23rd Tournament) vs Mr. Popo
Even if Tenshinhan surmounted him by a length in sheer, lucrative power, Mr. Popo still had a lucid one up in chi-sensing, distinguishing, and impression ability (as Goku did as well).
As for not being "anywhere near 177", recollect that Dragonball battle powers cannot be done because Toriyama-sensei did not come up with the concept until the beginning of the Saiyan Saga Arc, so as such it does not work in that kind of relation.
