I like the manga better because of how bad ass Mirai Trunks became. How he went full-out SSJ2 against SSJ3 Goku was amazing. I know Vegeta was proud.
So what is canon? The manga or anime?

More descriptive? Come on lol. It was only more descriptive on trunks fight against Babidi. The champa tournament arc was rushed and it wasn't descriptive at all. They completely jumped the fight against frieza too..

Well, I don't care what is officially considered "canon" and what is not.
DB Super's adaption of the two movies "Battle of Gods" and "Revival of F" is garbage, which is why I personally see the movies as my "canon". In the manga, Goku vs. Hit was garbage as well, that's when I prefer the anime-adaption and consider this part as my "canon".
Just go with the stuff that you like the most. In the end, it's all Dragon Ball content.

Manga is cannon.
1. Manga and Anime stories both comes from Toriyama, but in anime case:
Akira Toriyama writes the plot outline, and then a team of writers creates the script, expanding, adding, and changing elements from Toriyama's plan as they deem appropriate.[8] The original suggestions for some of the storylines come from the editorial office, then Toriyama writes the outlines. [9] However, Toriyama has seemingly complained about the anime's quality at points.[10]
Writters expand and change axpect of Toriyama's story if they want, but that's not part of Toriyama's work, which mean non-cannon.
So things that are different in anime than manga is non cannon.
In manga:
Akira Toriyama writes plot outlines which Toyotarō uses as a basis for the stories and Toriyama personally helps put the manga together. Toyotarō creates the dialogue and illustrations, expanding, adding, and changing elements from Toriyama's plan as he deems appropriate. Akira Toriyama believes Toyotarō's freedom to change the story makes the final product better.[1] Akira Toriyama also checks through all of Toyotarō's storyboards for the manga.[2][1]
In manga, toyotaro has power to also change, expand, add some elements, but he was given completly freedom by Toriyama and Toriyama even thinks it's better that way.
