good movie action fight scenes not realistic,if bruce,seagal,vandamme,li,norris,dolph,walked into a studio filled with 20 yoga students they would get swarmed and get their lights punched out and thrown head first by the collar of their shirts out the door onto the sidewalk

Bruce Lee is unbeatable, but what does that have to do with boxing?

[mrboxer]

bruce lee is unbeatable,why do you say that,what do you mean what has it got to do with boxing,do you ever post,are you new,i have not seen you before

Some people say Mayweather is overrated, some say Pac is, or Calzaghe, or Paul Williams or someone else.

But, by far, the most overrated boxer of all time is Bruce Lee. An 0-0 record in the sport and people pick him to beat ATGs

Bruce Lee had nothing to prove in sanctioned bouts. His best students (Joe Lewis, Chuck Norris, Mike Stone) went undefeated in ever single fight or tournament they were in. Lee was an actor first and foremost, but one of his main goals was to evolve the art of fighting. His philosophical thoughts and views on martial arts and their association with life itself are quite deep and proven true by some of the best martial artists, scholars, and philosophers. Check out his writings and read up on him when you have a chance. The guy was pretty deep. Most people see him as movie star, but there was much more to him than that.

My opinion is from what ive read. Ive read Bob Wall say bruce beat him. Ive heard anecdotes of people witnessing Bruce toying with Bob during sparring sessions. So when Bob says he could beat bruce, i get the feeling it is a hope and dream. When bob realized people were laughing at him, he knew he couldnt get away with such rubbish.
You are hardly goint to come to the conclusion you can beat someone after they bash you up in sparring are you? If i sparred with mike tyson and he was putting the hurt on me. I would hardly come to the conclusion i could beat Tyson if it were for real and in a streefight though am i?

You asked me why perhaps Bruce sparred with Bob and why not Joe. Only Bruce could honestly tell us that. But ive given a good reason that i concluded myself, without having to read a book to conclude. Bruces job was as a trainer to make Joe a better fighter. He did that. Bruce didnt have it on his training timetable for sparring with Joe. He had Joe busy with other stuff. [b]Mike Stone told Joe Lewis, bruce lee was phenomenal.[b] Bruce had nothing to prove to Joe.
You say Bruce was untested as a fighter, basically copying what Davis Miller says word for word. But dont back that up]. Bruce who was 140lb beat Bob Wall who was a heavyweight and you say Bruce wasnt tested. Do i need to say anything else? Didnt Bob tell Lebel, Bruce blew him away during sparring?

He didnt fight absolutely everyone. But did Gene fight Bob? Did Gene fight Joe Lewis. Am i supposed to kiss Lebels ass just because he dared get in the ring with milo savage?

And here we go again, you've read stuff, but don't say were you read them from.How do you know the sources are reliable? If they are from a book that's means the author has to make sure they are accurate, otherwise they may face a libel suit of some kind. For example Bruce Thomas was going to get sued by Glover, for attributing quotes to Glover which Glover didn't say. Joe Lewis criticized Davis Miller, for some of the things he said in the Tao of Bruce Lee. If the stuff you read are not from books, where are they form the internet? Some gossip in a forum? Who takes responsibility for the accuracy or better yet the inaccuracy of them? No one.

In order to understand Bruce Lee's relationship with Lewis you would have to read a book about it, otherwise you don't know what you are talking about.Mike Stone never said Bruce Lee was phenomenal, Stone would never say that about anyone. If you want Stone's opinion of Bruce you would have to read Joe Lewis's book. Which I take it you haven't read.

Bruce lee was untested as a fighter. What was his fight record? Who did he fight worth mentioning? How was he tested? Because he dominated Wall in a sparring match. What about all the other people who have beat Wall in competitions or sparring matches are they all great unbeatable fighters also? How about you post some links so we can watch Wall fighting.

Ive also noticed the way you never talk about that George Tan clip, were Tan talks about Wall. Wall says he could take Lee in a fight.You can't have it both ways, either Wall is a reliable source or his not. Wall thought people were laughing at him so he changed his mind? Here we go again, it was a private interview between Wall and Tan. If you want to know what Bob really thinks about Bruce go read the penthouse article, or watch the Tan clip.

Fighting and sparring are not the same thing. If I sparred with Tyson, I most probably would be able to walk away with a couple of bruises. If me and Tyson fought for real, I most probably would end up dead or in the hospital if im lucky. George Tan says that, "He believed he could beat anyone, but never fought anyone." Why is that good enough for Tan but not you?

Tyson, Foreman,Liston, Lewis etc, walk through Bob Wall and anyone else Bruce sparred with or fought with ease. Does that now mean these guys are great fighters, unbeatable fighters? Of course not

Gene beats Bob in a fight. Joe Lewis less certain, Lewis also knows grappling, so he could defend against takedowns something Wall could not. Should you kiss Lebells ass for fighting Savage? Why not, it shows he was willing to put it on the line. Lewis stepped in the ring with Bonecrusher Smith and Leon Spinks. They should be applauded for taking such risks. You knock Miller, but he stepped in the ring with Ali.

The great Bob Wall:


Because Bruce Lee beat this guy, he was tested as a fighter?

[hugh grant]

Go away silver like you promised. Only kidding.
So the interview i read with Joe Lewis where he said Stone told him hes got to meet a guy called bruce lee who was phenomenal is not real then?
I guess you never read it did you? You are going to ask me to find if for you are you? I could give you food recipes that i know because i read them but i wouldnt know exactly what book or magazine i got them from as well. But something like Stone saying bruce was phenomenal i would know about.
Joe Lewis said he was suprised as well because he never heard Stone say that about anyone.

You are acting too davis millerish. Bob was lying when he spoke to Tan. It was the fighter in him that made him lie. But he had to eventually tell the truth. He was telling the truth when he said bruce beat him.

The great Bob Wall:

There must be better footage of wall in a full contact match. But Bob was a respected champ. Show me lebel then against savage. Lebel didnt look great and neither did savage.
Bruce was tested by many others as well, youd likely put down. But then you try praise everyone else, that Lee didnt fight.
Jesse Glover was very good. He had a good judo record. All the people giving Lee credit are names. The whos who. So you can just put the whos who down.
Isnt Stones opinion worth anything.? Look how high esteem bruce is held amonst his peers and the martial arts world. How can you say he was untested?
