In terms of pure tanking this Frieza is still the best in the game as long as you're above 50% HP. 90% reduction is just massive. However tanking is all he can do, offensively he's utterly horrible and if you happen to fall below 50% HP, he's going to be a complete dead weight incapable of doing anything.

Trunks relies on his DEF stat and guarding ability to tank which isn't as good as 90% reduction, especially when his guard doesn't activate and you have to take a super attack (especially from enemy with type advantage, DEF won't save you if that's the case), but at the same time he gets 100% ATK and his tanking should still be enough for most events. He also doesn't have any HP restrictions.

As a unit Trunks is much better but if you're looking only for pure damage mitigation Frieza tanks better. It depends what you want.

Also keep in mind that Frieza is very likely to get an EZA at some point.
