As Gokuu weakens from such heavy blood loss, Piccolo disables all four of Gokuu's limbs. Piccolo takes to the air and prepares to deliver a finishing attack, while Kami-sama encourages Tenshinhan to kill him, which would also kill Piccolo. But Gokuu protests, just before the attack hits. Piccolo's attack creates a large crater in the remains of the ring, and it seems Gokuu is gone. But as Piccolo celebrates, Gokuu suddenly flies at him with Bukuujutsu, knocking Piccolo out of the ring with a headbutt. Gokuu encourages Kami-sama to let Piccolo go, before he flies away on Kintoun with Chichi.

Alteration
In the recap, the shot of Gokuu taking the mouth blast through the chest is zoomed in, so that you can't see it goes all the way through and out his back.
Alteration
In the recap, after Gokuu takes the mouth blast through the chest, a 7 second clip consisting of shots of it from other angles, and footage of Gokuu hitting the ground, is cut. But it's replaced with a 1 second clip of Gokuu sitting up.
Alteration
In the recap, blood on Gokuu's arm and chest from his wound is painted out. The wound is also completely painted from his back.
Alteration
Throughout the episode, Gokuu's wound is painted down to be less drippy and spurty, and completely removed from his back. There are also trickles of blood painted from both Piccolo and Gokuu's mouths. There are also a few instances of frozen frames, so that they only need to paint out one frame, and it's probably very obvious if you watch the episode. (Hey, it's not so much me being lazy and listing this all at once. It would just be very difficult to note every single shot of these. We don't really need a thousand of these boxes anyway!)
Cut
(10 seconds) After Gokuu's vision starts to get really hazy, a clip of Piccolo commenting on that, as well as Gokuu dripping a lot of blood, is cut.
Cut
(7 seconds) After Piccolo gives Gokuu the hard elbow, footage of the impact (Piccolo elbowed right in the big bloody hole), plus Gokuu screaming and lots of blood spurting, is cut.
Cut
(3 seconds) After Piccolo gives Gokuu the hard knee, footage of the impact, plus Gokuu screaming and blood spurting, is cut. (Pattern! In fact, both of those cuts have Chichi screaming afterwards, and that's where the dub picks up both times.)
Alteration
When Piccolo blasts Gokuu's other arm, blood is also painted from that wound to tone it down.
Alteration
After Piccolo wounds Gokuu's other arm, a 7 second clip of Piccolo lecturing/threatening Gokuu while he's on the ground is cut (I assume because Piccolo's face and all of Gokuu are bloody). And it's replaced with 7 seconds of Piccolo talking and Gokuu on the ground.
Cut
(4 seconds) When Blooma and Lunch are on the ground as the smoke is clearing up, a clip of Lunch's dress flying up so you can see her panties some, plus some more smoke, is cut.
Cut
(8 seconds) After Gokuu gives Piccolo the big headbutt, footage of the impact, with Piccolo screaming as he falls backwards, and lots of blood spurting, is cut.
Cut
(2 seconds) When everyone starts running towards Gokuu after the win, a clip of everyone jumping over a little hole on the ground is cut, because you can see up Lunch and Blooma's skirts.
Other
For the record, all of the blood painting stops when Gokuu and Piccolo are each healed.
