    who besides the gracies have had the most influence in mma/ufc? is there anyone else?
    doesn't need to be a fighter, could be someone working behind the scenes, so to speak.

    bruce lee obviously still has an influence on many people around the world, so i think you could say that in a roundabout way he has influenced mma as well. true of false?

    imagine being that woman who gave bruce lee the painkillers. killing a superstar!
    nah, just joking, seemed like it was bound to happen at some time in his life i suppose. [i mean having an adverse and deadly reaction to a drug.]

    Yeah, that's a unique element to Bruce's life, the fact that at one point he may've died.

    Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris :good

    Sure they were from way back in the era of single styles, but their influence on what later evolved cannot be denied.
