So the "Only" footage of Bruce Lee in an "actual match" has dropped. What say the naysayers?

Not really

I'm not sure what consists of training in MMA.

I boxed as a kid and did Karate and TKD, so technically that could be MMA

I started boxing again when I was older but only for a workout since I had a career ending leg surgery

Bruce Lee the GRANDFATHER of MMA (the Gracie fam the fathers) he studied Muhammad Ali boxing footwork and incorporated judo kung fu wing chun and some fencing stances into his own style jeet kune do . he also was damn near KILLING ppl who tried him on the streets. In comparison , movie guys like seagal (choked out and shyt on himself) and van damme (beat and robbed by normal ppl) CANT FIGHT

Vale Tudo been around breh, in fact the idea of cross training existed back in the day too, (that's how new disciplines are developed FTR) as for JKD

Regarding Steven Seagal and JCVD, Seagal is a practitioner of an art that splits opinion down the middle in the MA community, and has constantly retconned his backstory and is a known a$$hole who has indeed shytted on himself after being choked out by Gene LeBell, JCVD on the other hand really did compete and has an actual fight record unlike BL and SS

Are ya'll serious with this trash? That "fight" in the OP confirmed everything I've ever thought about Bruce Lee. Dude was basically an untrained play-fighter. Ya'll need to get the fukk on with this "DOOSH-DOOSH-BOOF" bullshyt.

That was clearly scripted. Looks like some sort of demo. In each and every attack, the opponent basically "offered" himself to "Bruce"(dnt kno if its really him) so as to allow for retaliation. Nothing was thrown in combination, no attempt to counter strike, the exaggerated head snaps by the guy when he gets hit, purpsely dropping guard and "going limp" after he punches at "Bruce"...nice display/demo though

You are the first person in this thread who actually knew what they were talking about
