Like I prefer Goku as a character more than Superman but Superman can turn him to paste, Death Battle always has long battles, it's what people want to see, Superman could demolish Goku as much as I hate to admit it but I do like Supes and yeah he's been around longer too so more feats but yeah both are great heroes just one is leagues above the other unless you're using animated supes from the JLA show.
Stoked for the new DBZ movie though omg.
Here is the reason, Superman is boring, Goku is awesome.
Elaboration:
Goku got REALLY powerful, and it was awesome. But his character was well rounded (for the type of series) and fun. Not to mention that he surrounded himself with people who could compete with him in strength (at least when they first met), and the people he fights are generally stronger than him when they first meet, making for a much more entertaining fight.
Now, Superman is, and always has been the strongest thing around, with a couple exceptions. It got boring really fast, so they invented Kryptonite...That wasn't entertaining enough, so they "killed" him off. That killed his popularity. So they what's left? Let's make him even more powerful! So to make him more interesting, they give him more and more power all the time!

New 52 Supes is definitely stronger than Goku. He has already bench pressed the weight-equivalent of earth(nearly 6 sextillion tons) for five days straight:

So in a slugfest he's going to beat the bejesus out of Goku.However, durability is the area in which New 52 Supes lacks the most, imo. He's already got several lower end showings in that area, and hardly any on the higher end.
It's 6.6 sextillion tons.
The scan uses metric tons (tonnes), which is a little heavier than our short tons. (2200 lbs vs 2000 lbs).
Just a tiny nitpick.

You're about twenty years out of date with that information.
