bruce lee as boxer

bruce lee was an actor

So, so wrong. Bruce Lee was an actor second, a martial artist FIRST. Not only was he trained by one of the highest-regarded KungFu instructors in all of China, he created a style that completely changed martial arts forever.

He revolutionized martial arts and martial arts training. Cross-training wasn't even heard of in the US before Bruce Lee. Most of the training equipment used in MMA today was invented by Bruce and his team. Why? Because he DESTROYED standard heavy bags and pads.

why oh why are we even discussing this, lets make a post about lance armstrong boxing next

Anyone who likes UFC who hates on bruce lee is a moron! Bruce lee is the godfather of MIXED MARTIAL ARTS! he almost got killed because he wanted to make his own style of boxing, martial arts, jiu jitsu, filipino martial arts and so on and teach it to westerners!

The gracies are the kings of no holds barred fighting and jiujitsu.

But bruce was the very first to use mixed martial arts, the ufc guys just advanced it but more so use wrestling, and jiu jitsu with wild strikes.

In UFC it is a power game, alot of the fighters juice and bulk up to take punishment. therefore it would not be bruce lees type of fight since he has no fat to cushion such punishment.

Now for boxing I think Bruce lee would have excelled greatly! He would have boxed in 126 or 130 pouned division. But then we have not seen his chin. But bruce would have boxed like alexis arguello very similar in build and style straight accurate power punches.

I was watching a doc about him, rumour was that he got KO'd by a non fighter in a bar brawl, thats pretty weak if you ask me. He's get murdered in a real boxing match.
