    You cant compare mannys boxing skills to Lees genius martial skills. Bruces genius martial skills doesnt allow Manny to get a look in. One kick from Lee and manny WOULD fall apart.
    Again he did test those kicks, and punches and everything else he did for real in a fight. There are a lot of world class martial artists, giving him credit. Credit for what? Probably credit for the kicks and punches they were on the receiving end of. Fighters are allowed to rate fighters though.

      HE NEVER FOUGHT ANYONE. WHO KNOWS HOW HIS KICKS WOULD WORK. I DO KNOW Manny is a fighter. I've seen him fight. I dont' care what Lee might have done. The fact is he never DID **** against a live trained opponent. Period.

      An actor would not beat a fighter in a fight. Sorry that you still believe in the myth.

        Bruce never attended an acting class in his life yet you call him an actor. There are guys who act as a serious craft perfecting their thespian skills at school like Bruce Lee perfected his martial skills in the gym. Lee was around fighters 24/7 and put all his day into the combat arts....stars in 4 films and you call him an actor. If i star in a film does that make me an actor or a guy who was just in a film? I've heard lots of great fighters say Bruce was a great fighter. Ive not heard any actors say he was even an actor. They talk about him as a martial artist, and that is all.

        Their are guys who have seen Lee do **** so to to them he is the best fighter they had seen. You aint seen Lee so you should zip it perhaps and have a little respect. Your skeptiscm is based from not having seen Lee so i'll put it into context. If you keep going on i am not going call you skeptical, i will call you a hater. If im honest i would say a hater is exactly what you are already. But at this stage i am going to be too gentlemanly and polite to throw the insults around.
