Yeah, a pretty vicious beating Goku received here.

Finally, Tenshinhan vs. Son Goku. Tenshinhan has the upper hand and kicked the shit out of Son Goku.

I'm really liking this arc, it feels like Dragon Ball is finally becoming a true battle series as the fight's have become far more elaborate and exciting.

Damn, the fight just started, and I am already at the edge of my seat. It is of no surprise that Tien would see past Goku's seemingly vanishing technique, he did witness and analyze it beforehand. Tien's three eyes certainly put him at a higher pedestal, allowing him to keep up with extremely fast opponents. This fight will be heated, I can tell. I wonder if it will be as exhilarating as Goku Vs. Master Roshi in the last tournament.

Tien is in turmoil with his inner self. He is fighting a battle with who really is, deep down, and what Master Shen drilled into his head. I am sure that after this match, he will do the ideal thing.

These random commentators and passersby are hilarious. "Personally, I don't mind these fights, as long as there is no violence" or even "I quit my job to be here, but it is alright!" These spectators are quite something, alright.

Oh my, that must hurt... Well, it's likely he will recover quickly - he is Goku after all. Still, this is getting dangerous.

Is Goku intentionally doing this? I don't think this was something to happen. Even Yamcha took more time. What is in his mind?

It was amazing that Tien was able to calculate Goku's move. Lucky for him that he is trained that much. This is nothing for their talent and strength. Only next episode will reveal all this mystery. I hope this fight will be an incredible one.

Goku is almost defeated we see. But I still think it just for reading his enemy.

Goku, you better be faking or else you may find that this won’t be easy. Jeez, he better go use a kamehameha or something.

First, the accolades: the first one is "Wow, the teachers talk to each other with their minds", I thought that part was funny, just like how the cast got their places at the audience for the fight.
The second accolade is "Pennzoil exists in the Dragon Ball Universe", that is also sort of funny to think about.

There's a lot of hype for this battle. Both Goku and Tien Shin Han showed that they were pretty strong.
But, you know, they put us at a cliffhanger at the end with Goku being beat up. I don't think he's gonna lose that easy. He's Goku, he beat the red ribbon army, Tao Pai Pai and plenty of other enemies, there's (almost) always a way that Goku ends up winning.
