Bruce got into real scraps, nobody is saying he wasn't a fighter. BY all accounts he was not afraid to throw hands in his youth.

People just go overboard and try to say he would be a championship UFC fighter because his movies and that's going too far. tupac shot some cops we don't go around thinking he john wick.

Well if people would just grind/work harder
And actually focused in school
They wouldn’t have time to think of
Superfluous Fluff and hypotheticals
About a dead man

 

[DropTopDoc]

Who’s saying, he’s just an actor, that man is serious, and any one who’s sparred with him or trained with him can attest to his speed and power

Haven't you seen No Retreat No Surrender??



He's capable of coming back from the dead and teaching the youth too!

Don't matter, I wouldn't want any smoke with this dude and he'd probably run over the average joe.

 

[Devilinurear]

Man I could beat up Bruce lee

 

[Pimp]

Imagine if there was no UFC and Jon Jones did MMA movies and 40 years later people said "he was just an actor"

Bruce Lee was more than just an actor and anyone who says so is probably a hater or isn’t a martial artist. Bruce Lee was the first famous martial artist at least that I know that basically called bullshyt on all the mystical Asian martial arts that Americans were enamored with. He ended up making his own form Jeet Kune Do where he emphasized moves that were effective in actual combat and practicing them against resisting opponent. He wasn’t with that fake shyt where you’re practicing a 5 hit combo against a dude standing there or even aiding you in the movements.

It turned Jeet Kune Do into basically the amalgam of Boxing, Wing Chun, Kung Fu, Wrestling etc. Homie laid the groundwork in what we now see is MMA...everything being thrown into the ring with only what’s practical surviving. None of that drunken monkey stance, praying mantis stance, and bullshyt that’ll get your ass whooped in a fight.

I think Chuck Norris made it clear in an interview that Bruce Lee was a competent fighter and would be a formidable opponent . but he was still a world champion competitive fighter and would confidently beat Bruce Lee in a real match.

chuck fought professionally so his opinion pretty much validates that bruce lee can fight. He just not gonna do people like he did in the movies is all.

Edit: Which makes sense because he was basically Neo status in all his movies. Nobody is that good. Even Ali got his ass beat a few times.
