The show starts off with Goku, who before this episode just transformed into a Super Saiyan, and Pikkon standing in the Other world tournament ring. Goku gets things started with his most famous attack the Kamehameha Wave which Pikkon dodges and starts a display of his speed. Then Pikkon traps Goku in his Hyper Tornado attack which takes Goku awhile to counter but he ends up escaping with a power display of energy. Then he revamps an old technique when he does the Super Kaioken which he then follows with another Kamehameha Wave! But don't underestimate Pikkon! He is a very powerful fighter. Pikkon goes head on with another one of Goku's energy beams, which Pikkon gets the better end of, kicking [*knocking?] Goku to the ground and almost out of the ring. Pikkon then says to Goku that he has "never fought someone as strong as Goku". Goku then replies, "That's because you are strong". He finds that "...tougher opponents always brings out the best in me." Pikkon then does his Thunder Flash attack 3x and by the third time Goku figures out the weakness in his attack. Goku then makes his move with the Instant Transmission and Kamehameha which knocks Pikkon out of the ring. Goku then wins the Otherworld Tournament... or does he? The Grand Kaio then tells Goku and Pikkon that they were both diqualified for touching the ceiling which means they were both out of the ring. The Grand Kai then says he will give both fighters a fighting lesson in about... 200 years! Then it comes that 4 years [*7 yrs? - according to DBFan] have past on the Earth and Gohan is going to high school.

In the Japanese translation, seven years has passed instead of four.
When the announcer declares the winner, the scene pans through the audience and you can see all the quarterfinalists in the audience including Pikkon's semifinal opponent who was carried away in a stretcher in an earlier episode.
Pikkon touches the ceiling first, so that means that he would be disqualified before Goku, meaning Goku would be the winner. Because by the time Goku's feet touched, the match was over.
Response: It could have been animated that way for dramatic purposes, although I do think a split-screenshot would have worked better. Or, Grand Kai could have fudged the results in order to not have to train Goku or Pikkon.
