before any1 else says anything remember when bardock went ssj he had a power lvl of nearly 10,000 and goku before going ssj had more than 16,500,000 actually i think he had more cuz frieza form 2 had a power lvl of 1,000,000 and his final form was far stronger than that i did the math but to explain everything would take alot of words so id rather not lol
i realize how stupid this topic is, goku was far stronger than bardock when fighting captain ginyu and that wasnt even the limit becuz he was able to keep up with final form freeza without kiaoken for a while so he doesnt even need ssj to beat a ssj bardock end of discussion but i do agree bardock is cooler becuz hes a bad ass just doesnt have enough skill to back it up;reminds me of vegita
