Which, got him beat up, it didn't help at all in a fight. All he seen was his son growing up, and the planet exploding, and all at random times. Which is the only reason those Elite Soldiers got any hits off of him.
Did it say surpassed 10,000? That could be anywhere from like 10,001 to Vegeta's 18,000. Kinda very vague.

In that case, if his power level's that close to Vegeta's by some chance, there would end up being a cool Final Spirit Cannon vs Galick Gun collision. :D
My mistake, it said he was approaching 10,000 and would soon be higher than King Vegeta if he stayed on course (So King Vegeta's around 10,000 I guess). Not that he's surpassed it. Meanwhile King Vegeta can't hold a candle compared to his son, so Vegeta takes the win here.
And Dadoria had a power level around 20,000 too if I recall correctly. If Bardock could survive Dadoria's blast like that, then I guess he could certainly take anything Saiyan saga Vegeta could dish out.
In which case, I take back what I said in my first post here. Bardock wins.
Is Dodoria's power-level 20,000? We know it is less than 24,000 because that's what Vegeta's power level was when he beat Dodoria.
I think his power-level is 22,000.
We do know, by logic, that in order for Bardock to surive that blast, he would have to be near 22,000. For instance, Radditz was able to stop Goku's Kamehameha which was supposed to be...wait....780? Radditz was, what, 1000?
Though Dodoria must have gotten stronger during the gap between the Bardock special and the Namek Saga. Or was his power level the same all those years ago?

I guess that's the real question, that there is no real answer to. Twenty-six years is a very long time.
Power Levels get all confusing. Radditz couldn't take a blast from Piccolo that was only like...200 higher I do believe. Yet Vegeta survives a blast that is like 2x stronger than he is. And was able to survive Gokou's attacks at kaiokenx3.

Who knows? He's not a Saiyan (needless to say), so his power doesn't increase with every battle, and the chances of him actually working that fat body of his between all those years? Kinda slim I'd say.
