Summary
Gohan's Beast Mode impresses even the legendary Super Saiyan Broly, forcing him to control his inner rage. Broly learns from Gohan how to harness his immense power, marking a significant character development. Gohan redeems himself after his past struggles against Broly in the non-canon DBZ movies, proving he is a true Broly-level threat.
Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Dragon Ball Super chapter 103!Broly has a reputation among Dragon Ball fans for being perhaps the most powerful Saiyan in the franchise's history, though all of that only changed when he and Gohan went step by step in the latest chapter of Super Dragon Ball. Currently, the Z-Fighters are evaluating exactly how powerful Gohan's Beast Mode really is through sparring and training sessions. As Gohan fights Broly, the true nature of his immense power is finally made clear.
In Dragon Ball Super chapter 103 by Akira Toriyama and Toyotarou, Gohan is on Beerus' planet with Goku, Vegeta, Broly, Trunks and Goten, and he is in the middle of a duel with Goku. Goku wants to gauge the power level of Gohan the Beast, as that transformation seems to be unique to Gohan. Not a Saiyan, not a god, just Gohan. After some time, Goku – using Ultra Instinct – is satisfied with what he learned about Gohan's Beast Mode transformation and decides to have another warrior challenge his son: Broly.
During Goku's fight with Gohan, Broly was amazed at the level of strength they both displayed – especially Gohan. So when Goku offers Broly the chance to fight this new challenger, he jumps at the chance. While both start in their base forms, Gohan and Broly quickly power up their Beast and Legendary respectively. The fight was quick but fierce and proved beyond a shadow of a doubt Gohan Beast is a Broly-level threat.
Monster Gohan helped Broly learn to control his legendary Super Saiyan rage
Before this fight, Broly hadn't really had a chance to fight anyone, as he still hadn't fully controlled himself when he unleashed the legendary Super Saiyan inside him. However, after watching Gohan fight Goku and seeing how Gohan was able to maintain control of his savage Beast-like form, Broly was inspired. It seems like Broly doesn't see much of a difference between the Legendary Super Saiyan form and Gohan's Beast Mode, so if Gohan can control himself, so can Broly.
Not only is their fight incredibly epic, but it's also a pivotal moment in Broly's character development. Broly is now one step closer to fully controlling his fearsome powers, and once he can do it on a regular basis, Broly will truly be an asset to the other Z-Fighters as It's time to challenge Black Frieza and defeat the boss Z-Fighters. Universal villain once and for all.

The reason many Dragon Ball Z fans immediately assumed Broly was the ultimate in terms of raw power was because of his original trilogy. While not canon, those movies show Broly completely dominating every one-on-one battle he gets into, including his match with Gohan. In Dragon Ball Z: Broly – Second Coming, Gohan is completely destroyed by Broly in their one-on-one battle. While Gohan tries to use his brain to lure Broly into a river of lava (which technically works), it doesn't stop Broly for long, as he comes back with even more ferocious powers than before.
While Gohan's final battle against Broly didn't really go in his favor (despite the fact that Broly was defeated in the end), Gohan completely makes up for it with this battle. Not only that, by fighting him, Gohan actively helped Broly learn to control his own immense power. But most of all, this war is here Super Dragon Ball officially confirmed that Gohan The monster is one Broly-threat level
