  1. it's kind of boring to compare saitama to anyone because he DOES NOT LOSE. that is literally the entire purpose of his existence as a character. he is, by the very nature of his existence as a comedy character, exactly as strong as he needs to be to defeat an opponent. even goku needs to work hard to reach new levels of power to beat a new foe, and this sometimes means being defeated in order to grow and become stronger. but saitama doesn't grow as a character, he doesnt need to work to become more powerful. he's exactly as strong as he needs to be, no more, no less.

  2. JoJo Iron his entire character, and indeed, the entire anime, is based off of the fact that being incredibly powerful is incredibly boring and pointless. the show itself is a deconstruction of the fact that so many action animes have characters that have no set limits. Saitama himself is a living, breathing, no limits fallacy who exists solely to win every fight he's ever been in without even having to try. to hold Saitama to the same rules as any other anime protagonist is to completely miss the point. however, if you really must insist on comparing his strength directly to another character, the most powerful character we've seen him defeat is Boros. I'd rate Boros's power to be comparable to that of super saiyan 3, as he is capable of at least one planet busting attack. Saitama, as usual, was holding back in this fight. His serious punch, the final move he used to defeat Boros in a single blow while also canceling out his planet busting energy attack, was the absolute minimum of how strong he is. If we're being fair, even his serious punch was likely not his full strength. still, he is not only capable of delivering planet busting attacks, he is capable of surviving a direct hit from such an attack with absolutely no sign of injury whatsoever. that alone puts him well past most dragon ball characters, although I haven't seen the entire series, so I can't be sure about anything really. But I know that Goku is more about pushing his limits rather than not having any to begin with.
