    your post is assuming that because bruce is a small asian with small wrist and skinny legs so he couldnt have fair well as a fighter.

    you know you just describe like half of the boxers out there right with skinny legs and all? lol. and you do know that there is smaller boxer's than bruce that are champions in their weight division right?
    Lee would have had to fight at 126 or lower.
    I've seen true lightweights hit at the old Westminster Boxing Club. Hector Elizondo would have broken Lee's ribs with one shot.

    Even featherweights were pretty freaking strong hitting the bag . And the bags they hit were twice the weight of that bag Lee was hitting .

    You can argue all day Lee would have been a great boxer . All you have is still a theory.

          Jesus, and you asked who lifts ?

          We know Evander Holyfield did a lot of lifting to get strong enough to fight heavies .

              yes, because you said since lee couldnt lift heavy weights, he wouldnt be able to punch that hard.

              im telling you lifting weights doesnt transfer to how hard a person can punch.

                You actually BELIEVE someone of Lee's size could hit like a heavyweight boxer?

                You have been presented a video of Bruce Lee hitting a bag . And you'd rather argue over and over again Lewis was telling the truth in his interview done by a Lee nuthugger .
                And geniuses like you actually argue Lee hit like a heavyweight .
                So Duran did not hit like a heavyweight. Sugar Ray Robinson did not hit like a heavyweight.
                But, 5'6" lightweight Bruce Lee did .
                Yeah, sure buddy.
                Joe lewis > you who has no credibility whatsoever and joe lewis has trained/sparred with bruce and many others

                  You'd be shocked how a ton of Leetards argue he would have beat Ali.


                  Lee would have not been a world champ at any division.
                  Hell, he would have not won a California belt.

                  He was severely nearsighted .
                  He had a shorter left leg .

                    And you still believe Lee hit like a heavyweight like he said ????
                    Tell me you're not that ******.
                    Lewis also said Lee was not a fighter .

                      Joe Lewis - The two students that I had met on this occasion behind Bruce’s house were Peter Chin and Ted Wong. The year was 1968. It was not a workout session or a private lesson. Bruce was pretty much just goofing off. He had Ted and myself execute a couple of drills, which he had staged. We were wearing boxing headgear and Kendo gloves. One of us would fire a forward hand strike, and the other would attempt to slip it or deflect it. Bruce asked me to fire the punch at him. My punch was very quick, and it took him a couple of attempts before he could time his counter. On the third attempt, he brushed the punch aside and did a three-punch counter, which is what we saw in the movie, “Enter the Dragon.” We were not sparring as I have never sparred with Bruce nor have I seen him spar. I don’t think any apology from Bruce was warranted. I didn’t see it as a big deal and I still don’t. He was just doing a little timing thing. If Bruce’s students were running around saying Bruce kicked my butt, of course, it is not true and I could care less why they would make this up. This is another reason I wanted to set the record straight with this book.
                      And Joe said he never sparred with Lee . Or seen him spar .

                      Great.
                      Which Joe do you believe in now?
