Its take into fact the difference in weight , which you choose to ignore. Bruce Lee wouldn’t be able to hurt Tyson. FACT. I think a right from Lennox Lewis is way more powerfully than a lee strike any time. One punch by Mike Tyson would kill Bruce Lee. How can you block a Tyson combo? Just put your hand in the way. He’ll break Lee’s Hand. Lee would fear for this life if he had to face Tyson. Tyson is a professional boxer wouldn’t just throw one right then Lee makes his move. Tyson right hand would seriously damage Lee’s body. If Tyson corners Lee, It would be UGLY. I really respect Lee, his body was remarkable, but to say you are the greatest fighter without holding a title and without any evidence. I laugh at that.

1964 Long Beach International Karate Championships
Bruce Lee's "One inch punch"
At the invitation of Ed Parker, Lee appeared in the 1964 Long Beach International Karate Championships[30] and performed repetitions of two-finger pushups (using the thumb and the index finger) with feet at approximately a shoulder-width apart. In the same Long Beach event he also performed the "One inch punch".[31] The description of which is as follows: Lee stood upright, his right foot forward with knees bent slightly, in front of a standing, stationary partner. Lee's right arm was partly extended and his right fist approximately an inch away from the partner's chest. Without retracting his right arm, Lee then forcibly delivered the punch to his partner while largely maintaining his posture, sending the partner backwards and falling into a chair said to be placed behind the partner to prevent injury, though the force of gravity caused his partner to soon after fall onto the floor.
His volunteer was Bob Baker of Stockton, California. "I told Bruce not to do this type of demonstration again", he recalled. "When he punched me that last time, I had to stay home from work because the pain in my chest was unbearable."[32]
1967 Long Beach International Karate Championships
Lee also appeared at the 1967 Long Beach International Karate Championships[33] and performed various demonstrations, including the famous "unstoppable punch" with USKA world karate champion Vic Moore. Bruce would announce to Vic Moore that he was going to throw a straight punch to his face, and all he had to do was block it. He would take several steps back and ask if Moore was ready, when Moore nodded in affirmation, Lee would glide towards him until he was within striking range. He would then throw a straight punch directly at Moore's face and stop before impact. In eight attempts, Moore blocked zero punches.[34]

Lee was not a professional competitor, but he did set his sights upon the goal of being one of the fittest and strongest fighters of the world, and he went through life earnestly attempting to achieve this. Lee researched many arts in his life and used what he found was useful and rejected what he did not. He also made subtle changes where he could if what he found did not fit his specific requirements. He tended to favor techniques where he could best take advantage of his own attributes, be it his phenomenal speed, strength, elusiveness or power. Lee did say he could have beaten anybody in the world in a real fight.
Dan Inosanto said, "there's no doubt in my mind that if Bruce Lee had gone into pro boxing, he could easily have ranked in the top three in the lightweight division or junior-welterweight division." Birchland, Bob (November), ""The Truth of Boxing: A Critical Look at Bruce Lee's Hand Skills"", Black Belt Magazine: pg. 93, <http://www.blackbeltmag.com>
Lee had boxed in the 1958 Boxing Championships held between twelve Hong Kong schools, a tournament in which he beat the three-time champion from another school (an English boy). (Thomas, Bruce. Bruce Lee: Fighting Spirit. 1994, Frog, Ltd. page 27)Comment
