... Bruce would mirk. You've got to be ignorant or... no, just ignorant... if you think that an experienced martial artist is losing to a street fighter. I don't care if it is one of the most powerful street fighters to ever come off the streets. I don't care. He loses to someone extremely skilled in martial arts, EVERY time.

Yes.
As someone who has a fair deal of knowledge/experience with MMA, reading this thread is like banging my head against a wall.
1. Bruce Lee's fighting styles are not ideal for real-world fights. Anderson Silva would destroy him.Hell, give me any top UFC fighter skilled in BJJ andMuy Thai and he'd destroy Lee. Easily.
2. On size and strength and the fact that he was, for a short period of time, THE BEST HEAVYWEIGHT BOXER THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN, Tyson would massacre Lee.Absolutely destroy him. Bruce Lee isn't an action movie hero, he's not Jet Li or Jackie Chan, this isn't Rush Hour 4. Stop talking about hissupposed speed as if Tyson couldn't lay a hand on him. Tyson was extremely quick for his size. If the fight was a stand up, Tyson's superior reach andpower and the fact that he's one of the best punchers in any combat sport would give him a clear advanage. If the fight went to the ground, he's haveno problem dominating Lee because of his outrageous weight and strength advantage.
I don't think many of you have real experience with fighting or mixed martial arts. Which isn't a bad thing, but you clearly don't understand howathletic and powerful boxers are and how much size and weight plays into a fight. There's a reason fighters are strictly separated by weight class.
Also, you guys are buying so much into the mystique/BS around Lee. It's pathetic. The guy was not even CLOSE to being the "strongest guy for hisheight/weight." Get real, that's garbage. I don't remember the exact numbers, but I read a book about his life that included some of weighttraining he did. It focused heavily on arms and abs, not exactly ideal. And the amount he lifted was not that impressive. It seemed like he was very fit, andhis body fat percentage was super low, making him look ripped, but he was far from superman in the strength department.
He beat some OK boxers in a tournament, beat up a couple bums on the set of his movies, and talked himself up. And you guys think he's the "greatestfighter ever" and all this nonsense. You have absolutely no evidence of this being true.

The only ignorance being displayed is thinking one of the greatest heavyweight boxers to ever step into a ring was merely a street fighter. TysonWAS a streetfighter.... Then he met D'Amato.
But regardless, I would be willing to bet that a 150 lb "extemely skilled, experienced martial artist" couldn't beat Kimbo Slice "everytime". Do you watch MMA? "Martial artists" lose to boxers, wrestlers, and "brawlers" on any given night. Knowledge of martial artsdoes not make you invincible. This nonsense has to stop. Just FYI, the people in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" weren't really flying. Sorry todisappoint.
You know who is ignorant about the skills Bruce Lee possessed to win in a real fight? EVERYONE. Because there is no evidence. Anywhere. If you have some,please provide it. Actually sell it, because it would be the first time evidence on Lee would have surfaced and you should get your money for that piece offootage.
Tyson, on the other hand has plenty of evidence to validate the usefulness of his skillset in a combat situation. Boxing probably the most practical martialart there is. You are taught to perfect your balance, to protect yourself, and to hit without getting hit. To say that boxing is sub-par because it does notinvolve legs is an invalid argument, because not all martial arts involve the use of legs. And even Bruce Lee knew that each martial art had it'slimitations and he even stated that the skill set in Jeet Kun Do was not finite. Lee himself believed that each martial art had limited practical application.So you are contradicting the very man you are touting my generally saying that any "extremely skilled" martial artist could take out any streetfighter "EVERY" time.
And in fighting, there are no "EVERY time" guarantees. And it's been said before, but I'll say it again: MMA competitions have weight classesfor a reason. Check out the average bodyguard or bouncer. Are big strong dudes or highly skilled martial artists?

Surely you'll acknowledge that intimidation is definitely a part of security.

That got a chuckle out of me.

The only footage you guys have seen of Bruce Lee fighting is in Hollywood movies, with special effects and stunts etc. So I think its a safe bet to say that his skills were exaggerated in films.
You know they actually Slowed down his footage so that you could see his punches and kicks right? Therewas an article I read awhile back where it was basically the leader of dojos fighting other leaders to own the losing dojo (or to advance above) and brucewould obliterate every opposition, even killing some of the masters of the other ones. Of course this is way back and there is no video of it (although theevents are true where dojos had to defend its honors) so you guys can use this as an excuse that where there is no video proof the events never happened.
There was even video of some guy (cant find the video) where he could karate chop a glass coca bottle in half form left to right. or vice versa. This same guywas said to have fought and killed like a hundred bulls by using the same technique to chop their horns off in an animal vs humans cage match type battle
