    Training in boxing doesn't make you a boxer. Driving a car doesn't make you a race driver. Training in martial arts doesn't make you a fighter.

          My opinion is based on facts. He was an actor fact. There's no proof he was a fighter.

            He was legit. In a straight boxing match? Floyd is the favorite. In a street fight or mma contest? Lee is the favorite. He mastered many different styles and we've seen how not all boxers transition well into mma

              Anyone who thinks Bruce Lee was just an actor and not a "real" fighter needs to STFU and do some research because you don't know **** about the man and how great he was, the man was a pioneer in modern martial arts history, a proven street fighter, a fitness freak and one of the forefathers of MMA.

              Some of the greatest martial artists in the world have trained under him and vice versa and everyone could testify to his greatness.

              Kids nowadays be ignorant as ****.

                  NONE of that makes him an ACTUAL fighter.

                  Could he even take a punch?

                  I highly doubt it.

                    Floyd would be favored in all forms of contact he cause was BATTLE TESTED and BATTLE HARDENED.

                    Lee was all theory...tournaments...and movie sets.

                    Floyd would have him kicking and punching at the air....then in his sleep on the pavement.
