Jeet Kune Do:The Way of the Intercepting Fist. Bruce Lee technique & philosophy VIDS

Sorry dude. Just thought it was funny that you, the op, was the one making it float to the top.

As far as my avatar is concerned, I just found it a fitting end to Oscar's career. De la Hoya was a champion with as little character that I can think of, and I loved seeing his ultimate scheme punch him in the face.

I am actually a proponent of Jeet Kune Do, but your post seems to devalue its effectiveness. A great art, in my opinion, should begin with its founder and evolve; not devolve.

 

This is just a huge stretch, no actual connection at all.

Brock trains under Greg Nelson, not Paulson. The only thing of Paulsons that Lesnar is really involved with is Combat Submission Wrestling, and even that is a stretch because his training in it is so geared towards his wrestling that it is almost unrelated to Paulson. He trains BJJ with Comprido. So essentially you have him training his wrestling with Nelson, high level wrestlers he brings into camp and the U Minnesota team, his BJJ with Comprido, striking boxing and Thai with Nelson and others, and his MMA gameplanning with Nelson, who produces guys like Sherk, Larson and Thompson; guys who would dominate a equally sized Lee. Brock has nothing at all to do with Bruce Lee. Nowhere in Brocks training is anything related to Bruce Lee; everything that he uses to be a great fighter Bruce was totally ignorant too or even discouraged; he is walking proof that Lee was all talk.

To be a succesful fighter you don't start with Kung Fu and then add bits and pieces of rudimentary grappling, you don't reinvent boxing when it has more or less been perfected through centuries or actually fighting, which brings me to my main point: you don't become a good fighter or develop good ideas by never fighting and mixing clever marketing with cliché stolen "philosophical" statements.

Lesnar is really much closer to proving just how much of a fraud Lee was than how good he was.

 

I retract that statement, as I don't think that is what you meant. Initially, I took the arrows to be greater than symbols. On a sober look, they look like arrows.

 

So then claim that Lee helped develop a great kickboxer ( although he was already a talented fighter) but don't claim that a guy who spent his whole life wrestling (which aler was not a capable trainer or participant, or even beleiever) and is now training with a camp that produces guys basically the same as him is at all related to Lee.

 

This claim that JKD was somehow the first or even one or the first to look at fighting as a whole is one of the least undersandable lies in the world. Jack Dempsey's How To Fight Tough was decades before and miles more advanced than any work Lee did.

 

thats because your a ******.

 

what do you study and how long?

 

lol you have no idea who you are talking to.

hostility is his middle name

 

That isn't true. GSP has been using sidekicks, spinning back kicks etc for ages.

 

100%.

Alot of what is taught in martial arts such as Aikido can be employed on your average joe but not well trained fighters. Sure you could pull off the odd move maybe but by and large it is ineffective.

 

...and there is irrefutable proof of this. Lee was a specimen but then a I think a gymnast may be able to do what he does. We'd never say a gymnast is as finely tuned as modern mixed martial artists who train to the highest degree in at least 5 combat sports and dedicated themself 100% to it.
