Just out of curiosity, who would win in these confrontations?
1) End of Namek saga Goku Vs the Trunks who killed Frieza.
2) Goku fresh from Yadrat Vs the Trunks who killed Frieza.
3) Assj Trunks VS SSJ 1 Teen Gohan.
4) SSJ 2 Trunks (Super) Vs Kid Buu
5) SSJ 2 blue-rage boost (no idea what the form's official name is) Trunks vs ToP Gohan.
2.) They're near equals. I think the implication was that Goku was a bit more powerful, but it would take every iota of his power to beat Trunks at this stage.
3.) FPSSJ is decidedly beyond ASSJ. Gohan would stomp.
4.) SSJ2 Trunks was "slightly" more powerful than SSJ2 Goku when they fought in the manga. Additionally, Goku was impressed with Trunks' power because it was "even stronger than Gohan's" during the Cell Games... If Goku was still using Cell-era Gohan as a measuring stick for SSJ2 Trunks, then it means Trunks was nowhere near Pure Boo's level.
Depends what version of Trunks you're using..?

I'd say their powers as ASSJ were probably about equal, tbh. With that in mind, I would give Vegeta the nod because he is a much better fighter.
Trunks originally *thought* he was more powerful than Vegeta because he could access USSJ... But when Trunks used USSJ against Perfect Cell, he learned the hard way just how bulky/slow/useless that form is(Goku and Vegeta noticed these weaknesses almost immediately, so they were never foolish enough to use that form against Cell.)

Now, how would you say future Trunks compares to his child counterpart? Say the Trunks who killed Freeza vs Kid Trunks during the World Tournament? What if Goten were also involved?
Also, would you say the disparity in actual skill between Trunks and other Saiyans has been erased by the time of Super?
Keep in mind, kid Trunks was slightly more powerful than Goten -- and per the Daizenshuu, Goten's power was "not the least bit inferior" to Gohan's at the start of the Boo saga. Granted, Gohan was a good bit weaker at that point than he was during the Cell Games, but he was still vastly beyond n00b-SSJ level.
Realistically, future Trunks would have never reached/exceeded kid Trunks' power until well after the Cell Games.
The disparity has certainly decreased, but I'd still say that Goku and Vegeta are better fighters.

In the anime base Future Trunks seems to get the better of SS Kid Trunks.
Also, if just normal SS is faster than the form Vegeta used, it really doesn't seem like a big decrease because Vegeta was quick as ****. The form Trunks used was garbage though
He could push Goku. But I think he'd be notoceably outclassed sooner than later.
Gohan would beat the shit out of him.
And ve Vegeta he'd lose also on account of he'd probably go full raging retard thinking he form surpasses Vegeta then just get punked. If they stayed ASSJ, Vegeta seemed to think he was slightly superior.
While I agree with all your other points in regards to this gauntlet, I don't think the OP was asking about basic SSJ2 Trunks. I think he was referring to the ASSJ2 form Trunks showed, which was stated to be almost as powerful as SSJ3.

I don't particularly believe this would change the outcome, simply because of Pure Boo's endless energy and regeneration, just thought it was something worth addressing.
