          No Bruce Lee was not a marial Artist before he was an actor. Bruce Lee was an actor before he was a Martial Artist he was a child actor.

          That one inch punch is a trick. Look at the guy's feet he's completely squared up and has no balance and anyone who watches boxing can tell you it doesn't take anything to knock someone down when they are squared up.

            Frank Dux deserves that title.

              (Ho Chung Tao) Bruce Lee

              People here complain about how there was no footage if even there was a fight. Well, I don't think people went around video taping fights in the 70s. And in the 60s - 70s Asians were not even looked at by the media or taken seriously by Americans...they were mostly ridiculed.

              Now coming from someone who has done martial arts for around 16 years (shotokan karate, goju karate, kyukoshinkai karate, tae kwon do, ai ki do, wing chun, eagle claw kung fu, a little of jujitsu and yes boxing too) I of course know there were TONS of predacessors to Bruce Lee who impacted and influenced martial arts (Mas Oyama, Chojun Miyagi, Morihei Ueshiba, Jigaro Kano, etc) I will say that Bruce Lee was the one to really break the barriers in the mixing of martial arts and broke through traditional training methods and ideas...so now we have UFC, Pride, etc

              HE TRAINED atheletes such as CHUCK NORRIS (9-time kick boxing champion), Kareem Abul Jabar (you know who he is) and others like James Garner & Steve McQueen. Unlike his later contemporaries Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Donnie Yen, etc. he actually trained in martial arts to further himself in the arts rather than strictly for performing. To be honest people like Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Donnie Yen are faster than him but would have lost to him in a fight easily.

              But it would really be fascinating to watch him fight in the ligther weights against Pacquio, Morales, Barrera, etc. He was 5'7" 1/2 around 135lbs and an unnatural south paw. He also had ridiculous footwork as well as a quick jab and fundamentally was solid and a lot of his methods primarily worked on counter fighting. So he probably would've been a methodical coutner boxer with good power. Oh yeah, he trained in boxing too.

              Taking away any credit he has to have furthered martial arts and fightin in general would be silly. That's like saying Dr. J didn't influence basketball just because Michael Jordan blow up 1,000 fold than he did.

                  It depends on what age he was or when ...but he was a little less than a 150 lbs before he died.

                    I normally prefer to argue with Jose because he can give it back well, but it looks like i have to agree with him again.

                    Any Bruce Lee fans thinks Jackie Chan is a unbeatable machine? IMO their exactly the same.

                      Take that back, Jackie Chan sucks ass.

                      I don't know how realistic it is but there's a film about his life called "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" which has him as a genuine martial artist way before getting into acting.
