Cooler realized that Goku was the Saiyan child he had allowed escaping nearly three decades ago and that in scolding his brother and not lifting a finger, he had been far too soft himself. Additionally, even while flying, Cooler could easily sneak up on the likes of Piccolo, who only noticed him once Cooler had made his presence known (normally flight would prevent one from concealing one's ki) indicating his ki control may even be on a level greater than any of the Z Fighters at that time.
