His qualifications as both a martial artist (student of Yip Man, opened his own school) and an amazing physical athlete are well documented as well (one inch punch, one finger pushups, dragon flag, etc).

    This is a 135 lb athlete:


    Also, since you brought in a video of a heavy bag, here's a little read about Bruce Lee and his heavy bags
    https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=...%20bag&f=false


    the one inch punch demonstrations come out


    i watch real fights and real fighters, kid! that's a 135 lber whose name you wouldn't know if he wasn't an actor. that's just reality.



    show me a video of bruce lee fighting anybody before you mention him alongside ray robinson, or competing in any kind of athletic competition before you compare him to bo jackson, an allstar in two american sports and one of the most gifted athletes of all time.


    bruce lee looks great fighting in the movies, doe!

      Why are you so dismissive of Lee? Is Dennis Rodman less of an athlete because he did a stint in WWF? Is Michael Jordan not the GOAT because he did Space Jam? Is Mike Tyson suddenly a crappy boxer because he was in Hangover and hosts some TV show now?

      Considering Lee died in early 70s, there's very limited footage of him as you very well know. That doesn't mean his reputation and his documented skills were not real. There virtually no footage of Harry Greb either, does that make any difference?

      Even if you ignore Lee's entertainment career, you're left with a man who's known for some of the fastest kicks and punches shown to the masses, for establishing one of the first martial arts schools that taught westerners, for creating his own style of martial art based on physics, philosophy and traditional Wing Chun -- and all of this by the time he was in his mid 20s.

      You're right in that he did not choose to follow a career of a traditional fighter, but completely dismissing him as a martial artist and athlete is absolutely wrong.

        Correct.

        In the clip, Loma is probably throwing 16 or more punches in a few seconds, which is mainly for rhythm and cardio during shadow boxing sessions.

        In a fight, you would get inside, and throw at most 3-4 fast hooks or uppercuts to the body, with the intention of forcing the opponent to drop his hands to cover his ribcage with his elbows. Then, without breaking rhythm, you throw a hard hook to the head.

        You can also use this technique in other ways. Instead of ending with a hard hook, you can throw the flurry, then immediately duck and pivot out to the right, turning your opponent and setting up a stiff jab-straight before the they can see the shots coming.

          I mean, c'mon Larry, you're defending a troll.

          It's just like stating to HBO that they are biased towards "slick" black fighters wich is more than obvious.

          And Lampley answering as the hypocrit he's :" hell, you're the one to bring up the race card".
          I'm not defending anything i just hate when people always bring up race

              But when you're facing Biggotry or narrow forms of racism, you sometimes have to name it.

              This guy if definitely a biggot.

                    Exactly. This place suffers because people like Larry enable those idiots.
