Bristow would fucking break him mentally. Though hard to say, as MvG hasn't hit his prime yet.

Does MvG use the same equipment as Bristow?

Bristow was a league above MVG

won more titles
more majors
more famous

the only thing van chemo shares with Bristow is the fact both share the same day for their birthday

MVG has ONE world title and that in a divided code.
all his titles were in the bdo except the PDC Pairs which he won (although wiki has got it wrong claiming he has won it twice in the eighties...not sure what event that should be.

Bristow has FIVE world titles in a unified field
5 Winmau Masters ...again in an unified field
2 News of the World titles
World Cup singles champion
4 British Opens when that was a genuine major
1 BDO Gold Cups
2 MFI Matchplays...again a then major
3 BDO Matchplays...also a major then

thats not counting buckets more British Professional, Grand Masters, British Pentathlon etc

In most matches MvG would fold like Taylor did the other night.

MVG's averages are higher
MVG's checkout percentages are higher.

Yes, MVG is using superior material, but would it make this much difference?

Mvg has a long way to go before being considered as good as Bristow.

But lose the unified field part from your argument. Unless you think anyone currently in the BDO is good enough to challenge Mvg?

You don't think Wolfie's 86 averages pose a threat to MVG?

No I am not. Bristow and MVG are two of the greatest players ever to throw a dart.
