The greatest fighter of all time!

Wow, I would think people on a MMA forum would be more educated. An actor is #2 on your all time list?!? If you're going to vote for Bruce Lee, might as well vote for Sly Stallone, Van Damn, and Segal while you're at it. Hell, why not Brad Pitt too?

Thats how I see it too. If you took some kung-fu guy like Bruce Lee in his prime and put him up against a modern MMA fighter like Matt Hughes is there really any doubt who would win? Lee might have contributed a lot to the sport, is an inspiration, blah blah blah, but in a no holds barred fight he's not going to stand a chance.

I think a Fight between Hughes and Lee would turn out bad for Lee because Lee was NEVER ANY good at ANY MA ! Make it against Chan and I think it might be a different Affair altogether . Im not saying Chan would be GUARANTEED any sort of Victory , but it should at least be more Fair against a person with a Lifetime of Training like Chan or Li , and not a few Years here and there with a lot of "PracticeAtHome" like Bruce .

Bruce Lee was more then an actor, his SPEED alone was lethal!

Umm , Dude, Bruce was slow as hell . Most Wing CHun men can do ANY of his Parlour Tricks that were designed to make him LOOK fast on camera including myself and I weigh in at 405 . And if you slow down the framerates of the camera youll see that guys with long term training can do them faster . This was actually proven by a Jamaican Ex-Patriot in Germany whom happen to have acces to the same kind of Camera Equipment that Lee used to use . Lee was only percieved as "Fast" because the Cameras of the day shot at such slow Framerates . The guy was able to CLEARLY punch a hole in a wall between the space of two Frames and look like he hadnt moved one Iota . Trying the same thing with a 60FPS camera yeilded different results entirely .

Oh , and speed means DICK when youre 135 lbs , sorry to say . Especially if your Opponent has ANY kind of Jointlocking or Grappling ability whatsoever . Gene Lebelle carried Bruce around on his shoulders like a CHILD while Bruce threatened to KILL him , swatting the boy on his ass and laughing ther whole time . And Judo Gene isnt exactly known for his "Lightning Speed" , heh .

Amateurs have this perverted Isea that life is like some Video game where a 100 lb person ios going to just "Run Circles Around" a 300+ lber and its just Phantasy . LOOK at the 40 times of NFL Linemen and youyll see that at short distance BIG men are FAST - Entirely capable of cracking the skull of anyone smaller . you not going to be facing Frankenstein's Monster when youre up against a muscular Bigger man . And youre NOT going to be able to "Dance Circles Around Them" either .

^^^Don't mind him. It's his goal in life to try and dis-credit Bruce Lee and everything he stood for till the bitter end

 

[Djimbe]

No no no . Bruce was plenty entertaining . I like his movies a lot . well , with the exception of a couple of Individual scenes . I just want to see some EVIDENCE of all of this "Deadly Fighting" that he was doing OFF Camera ...

Speed means nothing???? So I guess ballistics don't mean anything. Speed IS power. I've been doing this for 32 years, and know something on the subject. It's your opinion on Bruce Lee and your entitled to it.
