I only know him from Mystical Adventure, where he easily goes down to Tao-Pai-Pai. How strong is he in the anime/manga? The only feat I know of is tanking bullets.

i don't think he did anything else in the manga

he tanked bullets, but tao easily killed him, so hard to tell

maybe stronger than general-blue, since he had a more embarrassing defeat

So he is pretty weak then right? Below Chi Chi and maybe even Chouzu at their earlier stages? Because they act like he's pretty tough but then he kind of goes down like a puss.

it's arguable if chaozu from the 22nd tournament could defeat tao even :O :O :O

so ye chaozu was kind-of strong at the beginning

& chi-chi i think def. could 1-shot tao

Okay cool. Kewl. So we are probably talking a little bit above Mr. Satan then. Which I guess was okay then, for the opening rounds, I guess. :unsure:

Lol, but thanks. If anyone else has thoughts, I'd love to hear. When I watch the movie, I always felt like I was missing something from the series/manga, from the way they portrayed Bola. That was likely just to build up Tao-Pai-Pai, now that I think back.

Yeah I would agree with that. I just meant, I don't think you have to be very high to tank bullets in the dragon ball world. They do it pretty earlier on. So higher than Mark Satan, but maybe not much, can do that.

Sorry, one more q.

If Bola fought Crane Hermit, would he lose?
tsuru-sennin is implied to be >>> tao, so ye l0l

also on a side-note tao might be 1 of the reasons also why i was so scared of long-haired ppl when i was a child

I think Bora is one of those 'incredibly strong humans but not quite super-human' fighters like Pamput.

We never saw much of his fighting abilities against anyone outside RRA fodder. The only time we ever saw him fought someone of any real note was Tao who effortlessly impaled him with his own spear and when his son Upa was captured by one of the Red Ribbon Army soldiers on a plane he didn't even bother jumping at them to save his son.

But he's definitely above scrub tier fighters like Mr. Satan or Videl since he can tank bullets, and he threw both and Yajirobe really high up on Korin's Tower to give them a head-start.

Well I'd say Bora is General Blue tier, so he's still weaker than Goku/Roshi (21st Budokai).Goku, which was a little stronger than himself in the 21st Budokai could climb the Tower Karin, a feat that Bora, when young, was completely unable to.

Mr Satan 7
Goku (BoD) 10
Kuririn (21st Budokai) 16
Blue 18
Bora 18.5
Namu 19
Goku (21st Budokai) 20
Roshi (21st Budokai) 20
Goku (after fight Red Ribbon) 22
Panpoot 22
Mummy 22
Akkuman 26
Tao Pai Pai 30
Goku (Post Karin) 36
Chaozu (22nd Budokai) 38
Yamcha (22nd Budokai) 39
Kuririn (22nd Budokai) 40
Tsuru 55
Roshi (22nd Budokai) 60
Tenshinhan (22nd Budokai) 70
Goku (22nd Budokai) 70

That's how I see it more or less.

Don't forget he threw Goku and Yadjirobe above the clouds. I have him at 20%-25% of Tao, since Tao held him
off with his one hand's fingers, whereas Bora was using both his arms.
