If bruce lived today, he would have been exposed by now. Too bad he died young and have left alot of myth flying around. He certainly made alot of films and demos but where are the fights?
you sir are insane, a total troll, and have lost the last hope for credibility you could've possibly had with that statement. i like bruce just as much as the next fan, he was why i picked up martial arts in the first place. but beating jack dempsey by a landslide? get the **** outta here.
:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl Bruce Lee beat Jack Depmsey. WTF are you smoking? @IntentionalButt I am pretty much all trying to get a rise; but damn this is nuts. Not only was Jack a boxer but as beebs posted he had other training in actual fighting. With regards to being a fearce H2H competitor (there is zero evidence of any fights with properlly trained fighters) I wouldn't think he would last 5 minutes with somebody like Por Pramuk.
congratulations on completely missing the point of his post and making yourself out to look like an even bigger idiot
He is either ****ing with me because I am easy to **** with, a fairly advanced troll, or actually crazy. The one thing that leads me to believe he isn't just crazy is that he seemed to appreciate the SanDa or SanShou post, but thinking back, he didn't actually add anything, just sort of said "yea, see!"
growing up around 'traditional martial arts people' I have seen these kind of people before. dead set on Lee KO 1 tyson. I've seen his demonstrations, and the vast majority of it is martial art trickery that people do at tournaments to trick little kids, like a magic show. Ive never seen his fights, cause there aren't any. His technique is not good. He lifted a lot of weights, did steroids, and was flexible. hence him being in 'movies'. Ive been in elaborate 'lee' arguments before and Ive actually had people reference his movies, or the testimony of his actor buddies. Also, 'his' philosophy (as was called HIS by everybody in his biography on the history channel) is simple Taoism mixed with some random stuff. go to youtube and type in 'jeet kune do tournament' and you will notice... there is hardly any such thing. The closest thing I ever found was what looked like bad ITF taekwondo. But that is probably because their techniques are not made for SPORT they are meant to KILL
Thank god somebody else who agrees his "deep philosophy" is simply poorly pieced together various Eastern cliches, rather than actual philosophical thought. He is a bigger fraud intellectually than combatively, and that is a big statement from me, given my thoughts on him. I must say, you seem to be highly intelligent, so if I'm ever insulting to you, it's just because I don think it will bother you or you will get the humor.
Thank you very much, your good attitude is making me re-evaluate some of my perceptions of your average MMA fan. :good And I tend to have thick-skin about things. I have been in martial arts all my life and have hear people say some weird ****, Also I am no stranger to internet forum banter. :bbb
Hand of the claw and that bull**** lol, you don't seem to know much about Lee. I'm a boxer and Lees techniques helped me in street fights a lot more than your bull**** would. BTW David Haye learned to fight as a youngster thanks to Lees techniques, as did I, neither of us are bad fighters in the slightest, so thanks, but no thanks. EDIT: Oh you're a TKD guy, no offence, but that pretty much means your opinion is irrelevant, TKD is a HORRIBLY impracticle martial art. Danni Abbadi was a TKD instructor, he was a brilliant fighter wasn't he? LOL
David Haye then learned to box, from a boxing instructor, who taught him many things that Lee taught the opposite of. I'm not TKD apologist, but if you want to point out failed fighters, JKD has a list just as long.
you guys got nuts. my bad. i study wing chun and i enjoy the training alot. i fight mostly. i do very well n fights in the street and at my gym.
If I thought you actually knew something about taekwondo, I might actually be interested in your opinion. Why don't YOU tell ME something more about it so I can observe your vast knowledge on the subject. From what I gather From the patented google search, abbadi was an ATA instructor. This is hilarious. If he were a somebody in taekwondo in america, chances are I would know his name. And an ATA instructor is a nobody.
It's like comparing apples and oranges. MMA uses alot of wrestling and hugging moves like in the couture and vera fight. Coulture pretty much hugged himself to victory while taking devasting body kicks from vera. Wing Chun is about your inner strength, your energy, or what they call 'CHI' which is applicable to everything you do in life not just boxing. With MMA you can be ignorant to your 'chi' and hug yourself to victory.
