Ohhhhh...you soooo funnnnyyyy UGLY.....such wit and so smart......don't mess with the Ugly!

You are legend my friend.
If only all the getbig members had as much wit and smarts as you do-we would all be set for life.
Tell me, what gift enables you to be so much smarter than the rest of us?

thats the pic of Bruce i was looking for, its from Way of The Dragon and he was freakishly muscular for a man of his weight. He sparsely used weights, but he did use them. His forearms were as hard as dried cement!
-
Bruces' lats are unreal. Anybody know how he trained?
yes I do.
got a document of his training style.
Bruce at a time actually experimented with the basics of bodybuilding and getting big. He got big pretty fast from heavy curls, squats, presses etc. But he learned that being big wasnt gonna make him a better fighter, it didnt work for him. So afterwards he dropped his bodyweight again.
He made his own training style with weights. He did a lot of barble curls and wrist curls (his wife said he was doing them all the time). At the gym he would shadow box with weights in hands and do a lot of squats. Bruce was an EXTREMELY strong man, so he did MANY reps, but at the same time the weights were very heavy.
He also would do an exercise for his shoulders, much like the forward raise with a barble. He would raise it in front of him with his arms totally static, hold it for a while and then lowered the weight again. He would do many reps this way with a very heavy weight. He was the only guy among his friends who trained with him that could do this.
I could talk a lot more about his training but I am sure there is a lot on the internet about it.

yup, he could only grow int he 4-6 rep range of maximal overload ;D

I read that Lee put a lot of emphasis on forearm strength and he trained them every day.

Bolo's tits are f**king huge.
His son lives here in CA and I think he won his class at the Cal-can anyone confirm?
-
bruce lee had a mind-body link beyond anyone. he had more control over his muscles than any bber. he knew how to get the maximum potential out of his body. he could do shit that most 250lb bbers couldnt do. he only weighed 135 pounds but he could hit harder than anyone
-
Bolo :) yeah, he's great

Here is an article on the Mike Mentzer site about Bruce Lee:

I don't see it. A lot of dinks are ripped to shreds. What's so much more impressive about Bruce Lee?
-
why did bruce lee die??
-
I was watching the movie "Dragon" on tv the other night (this is the unofficial movie biography of Bruce Lee)
Anyway, in one scene he has electrodes hooked up to various muscles, including chest, arms, etc.....supposedly he used this technique (apparently the electric shock quickly contracts each muscle, much like weight lifting?) to build up his strength/speed/stamina...
Now, I've been bbing for quite a while and I have never used anything like this nor have I ever known anyone who has....but I think I have seen advertisements for these things in certain fitness/weightlifting magazines, usually intended for some "quick fix" ab workout (and I think I have read where some pros have tried these on abs, probably bs )

That's coordination and learning to use your momentum. Bruce wasn't strong, he was fast. Punch for punch Bolo would break you in half a lot more easily. Bruce was a legend, to deny that would be pretty stupid, but I really don't think he was so vastly superior to everyone else in the world. My money's been on Jet Li as #1 for years now.
Physique-wise, Bruce wasn't anything special. Shredded, sure, but no amount of leanness can make 135 pounds more than mildly impressive in my mind.
-
lee was an icnredibly insecure and envious guy, who admired the bodies of american bodybuilders and soon became a weight lifting nazi, curling barbells for endless sets of reps all days long. I dont think he learned a lot from this, because he has never beena ble to carry on some mass, and dont tell me it wasnt his goal, he was obviously worshiping the musculature of the american guys he met trhorough his life.
He was small, angry of being small,always wanted to show off and prove things to the others, and a drug addict. He was skyzohprenic too. Like the average thug wanabee who has nothing in his life but hartred and fear.
May he have find peace in death , peace he didnt find in life,even married and with childs.

you're a very pathetic guy man, are you frustrated or what?

Bruce wasn't strong ? he could do regular push-ups on his thumbs only , he could do one hand push-ups using his thumb and forefinger only , show me one bodybuilder that can do that , you can't , Coleman being probably the strongest bodybuilder up until this point couldn't do that , Lee could hold a 75lb dumbell outstretched paralell with his shoulder for seconds at a time with his elbow locked .
Bruce wasn't strong? you ever see the 1" power punch? he would knock people on their ass and all he needed was 1" , Bruce had functional strenght , he couldn't bench 400lbs but he trained for strenght that served his ultimate purpose to be a better fighter , Bruce at his best was 5'7" 1/2 and weighs 135lbs , he was a bantamweight with the power of a heavyweight , he never had a desire to be big , he always said that the only thing big muscles were good for were for picking up heavy weights .
Bruce had functional real world strenght , his strenght served a purpose which was to make him a more complete fighter , he was extremly fast and extremly strong , and his phsyique was very impressive , especially for a nonbodybuilder , I can't think of another nonbodybuilder who weighs 135lbs and looks that great can you?
And as far as a fighter is concerned I would say Bruce Lee is better than all of his contemporaries , Jet Li is a real martial artist in the sense he was trained in classical martial arts , as was Bruce to an extent , but Bruce realized that with classical martial arts it actually prevents a person from being the absolute best fighter they can be , because most martial arts are limited in thier techniques .
Bruce studied a lot of differant martial arts and took only what he considered the most effective and threw away the rest , he also studied western boxing and other forms of fighting , he is actually the forerunner to Mixed Martial Arts , he used stand-up fighting as well as submissions years before anyone else , he realized in order to be a complete fighter you couldn't limit yourself to one style or one technique .
If you look at the first UFC's and how the Gracie's dominated its only because they knew something others didn't and this is how mixed martial arts evolved and guess what once everyone knew submissions the Gracies started getting beat by strikers , because all they knew were submissions , and then you have guys who know learn , striking , kicking and submissions and you now have a complete fighter , the UFC was the best thing to happen to martial arts , because it really showed what is really effective and what is a waste of time.
I think it was the movie Cradle to the crave where Jet Li was in the octagon with all the UFC fighters and he said these guys would kick his ass in a real fight and I think Bruce would to as well because he trained as a mixed martial artist and had more tools in his arsenal than any other classicaly trained martial artist .

Bruce Lee ain't no Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat, that's for sure. Lee never won no intercontinental championship belt like Steamboat did.
-
Ted Wong - "Bruce would do a lot of different types of sit ups and bench presses. He was also using a technique like the Weider Heavy/Light Principle, working up to 160lbs in the bench press for three sets of 10 on his heavy days and then repping out for 20-30 reps with 100lbs on his light days. "

Rumors and hearsay huh? ZachG try reading something , you need more information because obviously you're ignorant on the topic you're speaking about , you want refference ? read " Bruce Lee The Art Of Expressing The Human Body " By John Little and here is a list of people who were firsthand witnesses to Lee's strenght feats , Kareem Abdul-Jabbar , Linda Lee Cadwell , Dan Insosanto , Taky Kimura , Joe Lewis , Chuck Norris , Jhoon Rhee , Bob Wall , Larry Hartsell , Herb Jackson , Wally Jay , Teddy Wong , Gene LeBell , Bolo Yeung , and the list goes on and on.
ZachG I suggest before you comment on the topic at hand do some research , this way at least you wont come across as so dumb. ;)

little known fact....Dorian Yates was a big Bruce Lee fan when he was young and Dorian admired Bruce's physique.

1) The 1" power punch is more about coordination than anything. Train someone for it and it isn't that hard. I've seen others do the same (and before you ask, no I can't do it).
2) Considering Bill Kazmaier's record for a pause hold with a dumbbell shoulder raise is a 95 in one arm and a 105 in the other, I heavily doubt that a one-quarter his size Bruce Lee could do a multi-second pause with a 75.
3) I don't doubt he was very strong like a gymnast in that he could do feats with his own body, but if you're going to tell me his power was anything to rival even some of the guys on the board you're fooling yourself and no one else.

I've never seen anyone else do a 1" power punch , and if it isn't so hard why aren't more people doing it? and as far as Lee doing the 75lb dumbell hold I guess the eyewitness accounts are just hearsay ::)
I never claimed Bruce was as strong as anyone on this board , I will say he had functional strenght that surpasses many guys twice his size , he used weights to gain power not to gain size , in some aspects of strenght he was stronger than a LOT of 200+ bodybuilders , you think Coleman can do 2 finger push-ups? you think Coleman can hold a dumbell outstretched at shoulder lenght had HALF of his bodyweight for 2 seconds? I bet he couldn't !

you shouldn't even respond to these idiots. That's exactly what they want. I know who Bruce Lee was, what the man could do, and what he means to me. That's what's important. Who would want to be admired by assholes like Zach_G, I bet Bruce wouldn't want that :)
let that frustrated sucka talk the shit, he ain't nothin'

can bruce lee deadlift and squat 800 pounds, i didnt think so, bruce lee is nuthin but a peanut compared to ronnie's strength regardless of weight difference, i doubt it very much that bruce could bulk up to 320 pounds like big RON

who cares you fucking idiot, bruce lee wasnt a bodybuilder and wasnt trying to be. lifting huge weights is useless unless you want huge muscles and he DIDNT want huge muscles, they would hinder his progress.
and also he could have kicked the shit out of coleman in a fight, and thats what matters anyway. in fact he could probably knock him out cold in a single move

Again can Ronnie Coleman the strongest bodybuilder ever do two finger push-ups? can he hold a dumbell half of his bodyweight outstretched at shoulder lenght for 2 seconds? can Ronnie run 3 miles without dying lol I didn't think so ;)

who fuckin cares? its bruce freakin lee. hes a skinny chinese dude that made crappy movies. i dont care how many one-finger pushups he can do, a bullet would still kill his scrawny ass dead.

G_L: you're a fag. he'd kick your gay ass.

lol. youre an idiot.
none of yall knew him, yet you all seem to know exactly what he was doing, how he did it, why he did it, and so on. and, on top of that, yall want to argue about it. please. really, who cares? do any of yall want to look like him? i dont. personally, i dont give 2 shits about martial arts, or pride fighting or any of that trendy fight-club ufc bullshit mentality that most kids have these days. hes a dead actor. he made movies, and not very good ones. let it go.
-
The thing that impressed me most about him was his jumping ability. I saw a video of him jumpkicking a ceiling light and breaking it, amazing. He wasn't a bodybuilder, and he intentionally stayed light to be fast so there is no reason to compare him to bodybuilders. He was not strong in that sense, but for his weight he was and he relied on technique to generate power not muscle strength.

once Bruce Lee was shootin a movie and was doing a kick scene. a stuntman was instructed to duck when bruce lee did a simple kick. he didn't duck on time. Rest in peace.

Because he was built up by hollywood to be a legend (regardless of whether he really was).
The truth about Bruce Lee is atleast as elusive as finding out real facts about arnold.
Only an idiot would try to compare apples and orange and rank them on who was better.
-
Hollywood made him a legend huh. We almost forget that he was turned down for years in hollywood because he was CHINESE.
Bruce made a name for himself in Hong Kong after he realised he wouldn't get any chance in the states because of the racism that was going on there.
Bruce did it all by himself in Hong Kong, he allready was a legend there. That's when Hollywood finally realised he was special. NOBODY MADE BRUCE.
Enter The Dragon is ALL ABOUT BRUCE LEE, he's the one kickin' ass Lee style 8) he's the one takin' names. He even was the goreographer of every single fight sequence in the film so don't give me that bullshit.
"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

Dude YOU are quite the oxymoron. You are on a forum which discusses the trials and tribulations of dedication, commitment, hard-work and dedication ;D. Why are you here complaining about Bruce Lee, who was one of the most committed and mentally sound Martial artists, 'but he was a skinny chinese dude that made crappy movies' is there something you know about him that we don't? yeah right, shutup and have some respect.

G_L got bruce mad now 8)
-
Again can Ronnie Coleman the strongest bodybuilder ever do two finger push-ups? can he hold a dumbell half of his bodyweight outstretched at shoulder lenght for 2 seconds? can Ronnie run 3 miles without dying lol I didn't think so ;)
this is absurd. pitching bruce is stronger than coleman. get a grip. and what a surprise you managed to get a few digs into a coleman in a "brue lee" thread. what next huh, maybe steve reeves versus coleman. no wait you've already done it.
-
this is not about who is the strongest, it's about the extraordinary things lee could do.
Lee was the fittest man on the planet. Pound for pound he was one of the strongest men that ever lived, we have eye-witnesses for all you morons. All one has to do is read a book or watch a documentary.
by the way, yeah Coleman IS stronger, yet I wouldn't be surprised if Bruce would beat him in a couple of exercises. Then again, Coleman can do only one thing, and that's pick up heavy weights. Bruce trained heavy, ran long distances, and knocked out guys like Ron with one single punch. It's how you look at it, to me Bruce is the stronger guy in the sense that he'd kill Ronnie in 10 seconds if he had to :)
WHAAAAAA!!!!!
luv that pic ;D
-
Gotta agree with Sly here,
So what if Bruce Lee wasn't huge and was into lifting massive weights? He was both a phenomenal athlete and amazing martial artist. Oh and he had an excellent physique too.
Check out the thumb push ups, with arms stretched out.

bullcrap. how is one of the strongest men that every lived. what type of strength are you referring to? put lee up against any world class powerlifter around his same weight and theyde eat him for lunch. so how is bruce lee exactly one of the strongest. isnt it time people stopped deifying this guy. im sick of hearing 30 years later how he'd kick everyones ass
-
he WOULD kick ass
get over it
-
nice of you to qualify that statement. we'll all just take your word for it then

I posted a link to the two fingered pushups
those were cool
bruce lee rocks
lol, your post remind me of:

"oooooh, bruce lee was so cool. he can jump 30 feet in the air. you better respect him". and if i dont? what are you gonna do? karate chop me? dumbasses. excuse me for not getting a boner over bruce lee. maybe my test levels are low. maybe not.

G_L we don't even want you over here man.
this is a topic about the great Bruce Lee, yeah that's right. People have the chance now to tell something about Bruce, to show some pics and stuff. You shouldn't forget that Bruce is loved my millions of people around the world. Why is this the most stupid topic. Nobody tells you you HAVE to admire him, but you have to get over the fact that some people do admire him.
And don't give me that 30 feet in the air bullcrap you dumb assclown, there's A LOT of footage and pics about the incredible things this man could do. If you want to ignore these things, that's fine, go jack-off instead.
This man also set the standards for western action/fight movies with 1 single film. Not bad huh for a Chinese guy in the early 70ties in the States.

stupid ninja geek, how old r you? are you 14? you werent even born when bruce lee was still alive. Go f**k yourself, and get a life.
Bruce lee like all the legend was only ..a legend. Did you know that everything you see about him is in f**king movies and that you dont even f**king know what he was really able to do? Doings things in a SCRIPTED movie with stunt men doesnt mean you are able to fight against 50 real thugs with guns or knives in the streets you sutpid f**k.
How retarded are you to dont be even able to make the difference between lame ass movies from the 70' and REALITY?
Go back watching endlessly his movies and stfu, you lil child.
And try to perform what u learned from his movies on somone in order to die quickly stupid ninja wanabe.
-
haha, no I ain't 14, ain't a ninja geek and sure as hell don't fuck myself.
Whatever trekkie means if that's good I'm that.
Feces we all now your reputation in here: You ain't got one
And G_L is a homo ;D
-
who f**kin cares? its bruce freakin lee. hes a skinny chinese dude that made crappy movies. i dont care how many one-finger pushups he can do, a bullet would still kill his scrawny ass dead.
You are a moron...Lee wasn't a bodybuilder, and I guarantee he looks better then you..
-
You are a moron...Lee wasn't a bodybuilder, and I guarantee he looks better then you..
really? you guarantee? and thanks for clearing that up that bruce lee wasnt a bodybuilder. after seeing some of yalls pics, the line between "bodybuilder" and "skinny geek" started to blur a little.
dumbass.
now ill leave you kung-fu fags to your dead-guy worship. enjoy.
-
The people who make lame comments about Bruce Lee really are ignorant to just how special he was , he was so much more than a guy who made kung-fu movies , he was a modern renaissance man , he was an philospher , a revolutionary , a writer , director , actor , he was involved in EVERY aspect of film making , he single handedly save the martial arts genre in the 70s and and started an expolsion of kung-fu movies in the United States and guys like Chuck Norris , Van Dame , Jet Li , Jackie Chan , Donnie Yen all owe their careers to Bruce Lee , he influenced so many people from movie stars to martial artists to bodybuilders , the guy was a genius plain & simple , now if you don't like him or his movies thats cool , but don't try to undermine his greatness with ignorance.

G_L: you useless piece of confederate shit.

Im sick of you wankers chirping about how tough Bruce Lee was. Almost any bodybuilder, any MMA or Football player would kill Lee in a fight.
Has Bruce ever fought against someone who weighed more than 140 lbs in real life? no. He only fought other oriental midget who had one dimensional styles.
-
He'd have 10 punches and a kick to the face in before you had any clue what happened. No, he was not big, but he was strong for his size and fast as a guy.
-
Bruce Lee couldn't knock out a fly. Mike Tyson would chop him into chop suey.
-
One thing your forgetting is that Bruce was not a sport fighter. In a no rules match, a good shot square to the nose or throat would be all it took, even from someone his size. Tyson wouldnt have been able to land 1 punch.
-
Lee was okay, but BOLO is the man! ;D
Dude, truer words have never been written.

They spent there days lookin at themselves in the mirror pumping there gay asses up while Lee was training all day to kick some mutha fuckin asses Streets style.
You guys really suck dick here if you think he was a fake as go to Los Angelos and talk to Bolo and others about Lee and ask if he was all talk. Until then shut the fuck up cause you dont jack shit about fighting and what real training is all about STREETS style!
Easy to beat down a corspe ehh but Lee is watching and will have his revenge on all you mutha fukkas! >:(

Im sick of you wankers chirping about how tough Bruce Lee was. Almost any bodybuilder, any MMA or Football player would kill Lee in a fight.
Has Bruce ever fought against someone who weighed more than 140 lbs in real life? no. He only fought other oriental midget who had one dimensional styles.
Its threads like this that bring me back to this site and then responses like this that remind me why it is not for long.
Why are people so willing to post about subjects they know nothing about? The whole concept of mixed martial arts was started by Bruce Lee. It is the reason he was ostracized by the old school traditional Chinese Masters.
He was the innovator combining western style boxing, wrestling, fencing, and weight training along with his traditional disciplines. He also intergated diferent traditional styles which was unheard of in Martial arts at that time. If it worked (in the real world) then he would incorporate it into his training and art.
-
People are missing the point regards to his strength. Compatitvely for his weight he was exceptionally strong and perhaps one of the strongest.
I can't do finger push ups, I doubt many can, it's a different type of strength all together.
If Bruce lee could hold out a dumbell at arms length that is more than half his bodyweight (75lbs) then so should I, but I can't because comparitively he was much stronger!
To compare in this strength Ronnie must be able to hold out a 150lb+ dumbell.
-
I bet he couldn't even pick up a 75 lb dumbbell.

Ok smart guy, Tell me who has bruce lee ever beat in a real fight? Movies dont count BTW.

all that matters in a fight is who has more skill and experience. did anyone see 170lb royce gracie defeat that 450 pound sumo wrestler in like 30 seconds? bruce lee would have kicked all you hater's asses at one time in less than 30 seconds
-
Jesse Glover - "When he could do push ups on his thumbs and push ups with 250lbs on his back, he moved on to other exercises".
I reckon that's still not strong enough for some of you guys here? ::)
-
I can't believe the crap some guys bring up here. Like they know something. And that Bruce only fought midgets and 140 pound guys and everything. Bruce would get challenged constantly on the streets, both in America and in Hong Kong by martial artists of all shapes and sizes. He simply took time to whoop them all, and he did.
I have a documentary with an interview with the great Chuck Norris, a man of truth, integrity and kindness. Chuck retired undefeated in the world of karate. Some guy asked him, if you fought Bruce, who would've won? Without hesitating he said "Bruce would have won without a doubt. No one could take him."
These are the words of a undefeated 75/80kg champion who never fought Bruce except in sparring sessions, and admits that a 55 kg Bruce would defeat him in a real fight.

Anyone who would try to discredit Chuck Norris and his real martial arts accomplishments is just plain ignorant to the facts.
Your actor in a martial arts films line may have some credit in modern films but not in films made back in the 70s and early 80s.
Most martial arts films were period films that featured particular disciplines or styles. The stars of these films had to be proficient in these particular styles (Judo, Korean Karate, Northern Mantis, Wu Shu, etc). Since most of these movies were made in Hong Kong and using proficient Martial Artists, these fighters came from some of the most prominent schools that existed. These schools had control over who could and could not make a movie that featured their particular discipline.
Any one who is knowledgeable about their own discipline or others can recognize when the fighter in the movie is using his or a particular style. Most of the fight scenes or training sequences in the movies back then were either a strict following of ancient forms or variations on them.
This added fuel to the fire that martial arts traditionalists had against what Bruce Lee did, because he would not and did not promote any particular style (in his movies he just called it Chinese boxing). He was willing to teach outsiders, he was willing to bend the rules of tradition and not go to the grandmasters and ask for permission to use their particular style.
This might sound like fairy tales but martial arts was banned in China as new people came into power. Much like gun control in modern times, the dictators did not want the common people to be able to defend themselves, making them reliant on the army or government for protection. Also it made keeping the people under their control a lot easier if they did not know how to use a sword or fight.
That is when schools went underground and monks and traveling theater groups became the way to save and practice the ancient arts. People like Jackie Chan who has demonstated many different disciplines over the years is not a student of any of the major martial arts schools of China but a student of the Pei King Opera company. The artists or actors in the opera company were allowed to perform martial arts under the disguise of dance or an acting performance skill.
It was not until modern times when Hong Kong was liberated or occupied by new rulers that schools were able to come out of hiding and teach openly. You might be able to understand why some would resist outsiders learning your style and people blending and corrupting what some wanted to keep pure when you and 10 generations of your family sacrificed life and limb to preserve the styles.
When you talk Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris, Benny Urquadez, Jet Li, Jackie Chan (the list is even longer) you are talking about real martial artists not Keanue Reeves studying for six months and using special effects.
I have all the respect in the world for this new breed of MMA fighters and the like, but know your history. It is good advice in any avenue of life.

fighting requires stamina and the last time I checked most pro bb can't walk up a flight of stairs without getting winded. Bruce Lee against Ronnie Coleman - I will take the little guy.
Most Navy Seals don't break 200 pounds either, but I would take anyone of them over any bb

Can someone please post Bruce Lee's win/loss record??

The people who make lame comments about Bruce Lee really are ignorant to just how special he was , he was so much more than a guy who made kung-fu movies , he was a modern renaissance man , he was an philospher , a revolutionary , a writer , director , actor , he was involved in EVERY aspect of film making , he single handedly save the martial arts genre in the 70s and and started an expolsion of kung-fu movies in the United States and guys like Chuck Norris , Van Dame , Jet Li , Jackie Chan , Donnie Yen all owe their careers to Bruce Lee , he influenced so many people from movie stars to martial artists to bodybuilders , the guy was a genius plain & simple , now if you don't like him or his movies thats cool , but don't try to undermine his greatness with ignorance.
I agree. Bruce Lee was ten times better a philosopher than he was a martial artist. The man was very well rounded. Extremely intelligent man. Bruce Lee also won numerous tournaments and defeated many great martial artists all over the world. He is great in the movies with all his stuntmen, sure, but he was also great in real world fighting. He aint no Jean Claud VanDamme.
-
who cares you f**king idiot, bruce lee wasnt a bodybuilder and wasnt trying to be. lifting huge weights is useless unless you want huge muscles and he DIDNT want huge muscles, they would hinder his progress.
and also he could have kicked the shit out of coleman in a fight, and thats what matters anyway. in fact he could probably knock him out cold in a single move
hey man settle down, now need to get agro.
I love bruce lee, i think he's a fantastic fighter but when it come to he got the best back ronnie wins hands down, doesnt matter if he could knock ronnie down in 2 seconds cause his ass would be jailed (shot) by big rons cop buddies
-
Aside from a few "boxing bouts" in Hong Kong Bruce Lee did not fight in the ring ................ever, not for a trophy, money, p***y.........
I think he was too proud of himself to get into a position to lose. His statement regarding the matter was that fighting for points proves nothing as it does not exhibite true power from a punch and therefore the point fighting was useless.
I honestly feel that if he where to go up against a rank pro in his day he would have had his butt handed to him.
Take a real fighter like Chuck Norris who fought undefeated for real punches and blows that broke noses and ribs etc etc, some five years winning the middleweight title over and over. Chuck would have no problem with Bruce Lee.
Bruce Lee was however a great showman and martial artist and, could handle himself against the average Joe with ease for sure.
I friend of mines dad trained with Bruce Lee back in the 1960's at the University Of Washington in Seattle. He said he was very fast and had some good power for such a little man.
I have most all of Bruce Lee's movies and enjoy watching him and have great laughs at his inhuman feats and stunts he pulls. I have stood over Bruce Lee's grave and felt somewhat in awe of his star that once was.
If anything Bruce Lee was a powerful man, when it came to being a showman, but do not confuse showmanship for real fighting, the two are not the same.

I can't vouch for this particular site's info ... but I do remember hearing that one of the old sports networks used to give Benny bonuses for allowing his opponents to last at least three rounds. Dude was bad.
"The Jet’s" professional fighting record stands at 200 plus wins and Zero (0) losses, his accomplished World Title Defense Record Stands at 63 wins and zero (0) losses, with "57 knockouts." Unprecedented in ring history, Benny "The Jet" is the only fighter to have retained Six World Championships in five weight divisions for 24 consecutive years. Coming out of retirement in 1993 at the age of 42, he again demonstrated his unique fighting style, defeating Yoshihisa Tagami the 25-year-old Japanese World Welterweight Champion to win the World Light Middle Weight Championship. "The Jet" is the longest reigning World Champion of all Professional Sports in history.

I can't think of one Bruce Lee movie that was crappy. Bruce brought magic to the screen, even in those low budget Hong Kong movies. I enjoyed watching all those movies.
Bruce starred in only 1 film in the States, and that one certainly was not crappy. It's in many peoples opinion still the best martial arts movie to date.
-
Game of Death was subpar, but the man died like halfway through filming.
Then there's Brandon ...
Creepy.
-
yeah he got killed on the set with a real bullet. How could this even happen. There are definitely a lot of things we don't know about their death.
-
I think Bruce od'd, no? They said Rye Syndrome or something, back in the day. Allergic to aspirin, brain swelled ...
Then I heard it was bullshit, that no one has ever died from that.
... and he liked him them hash brownies.
-
I have read Bruce experimented with diuretics to look even leaner on screen. Plus he was taking a lot of painkillers and medicines for an old back injurie. He couldn´t take the pain anymore at the time.
What I´ve heard and I´m not sure since I´ve never known Bruce, he was very stressed. If there went something wrong in his life, he just wanted to think about it and think about it and think about it until he literally drove himself crazy. Therefore he took some hash to calm down.
He was also addictive to his training. CONSTANTLY training and always experimenting, and he almost never slept at night.
He was even thinking about an early retire because he could not keep hitting these home runs. There was too much pressure on him since he meant so much to the Chinese people and since he would get challenged constantly on the streets by martial artists in his private life. It even took him to a point where he was carrying a gun. He couldn´t go anywhere with his wife and children and not getting challenged.
I think the tank was just empty at the end. I´ve read that just moments before he died he called his sister and told her that he was going to die. He just felt it coming and was sort of OK with it.
-
HE WAS A STREET FIGHTER BEFORE HE WAS IN MOVIES HEADING TO JAIL, CANT FAKE THAT.
HE WOULD FIGHT ANYBODY ANYTIME OUTSIDE THE RING WITH NO RULES AND MADE THAT VERY CLEAR IN ALL HIS INTERVIEWS. NOBODY CHALLENGED HIM AND THE ONES WHO DID...GOT BEAT.

CHuck Norris said over and over many times that he did not stand a chance against Bruce Lee in a street fight. That's not being polite. Being polite would be saying something like "he's a great fighter i have a lot of respect for him" then avoid saying who would win. Chuck Norris wasn't lying.
-
chuck and bruce used to train together and exchange ideas. i have the VIDEO. basically, chuck does these sidekicks that are very awkward and stiff (typical Jap kata stuff). then bruce shows him how a real kick is done.

Well I've trained a little with Benny at his Jet Center and Chuck (at some gym on Ventura Bl.) and Bob Wall. And all three of these guys are unreal still. Bob Wall is probably the oldest and can still hit. He is the only person to appear in every Bruce Lee movie. He too was World Champ. Chuck hits like a fucking horse. I can't believe how hard he still hits. He is in great physical condition. Benny is still tough even though that last fight he had in his comeback was not the best thing to watch. He is a great guy. His whole family is world champion. I've seen Bolo at Gold's Venice. Allot smaller in person (height wise) than I thought. Never met Bruce Lee but saw his house in Hong Kong. Met Jackie Chan at the Pacific Club in Kowloon, Now that is a tiny guy. Bill Wallace is another superstar who is a really nice guy too. Never actually met Segal but he did walk by me in Vegas and he is a big guy in person. Jean Claude is an old friend. After writing all this I didn't realize I knew so many martial arts guys. But Bruce is the baddest.

He also would do an exercise for his shoulders, much like the forward raise with a barble. He would raise it in front of him with his arms totally static, hold it for a while and then lowered the weight again. He would do many reps this way with a very heavy weight.
Yup! I had a friend who's a real fighter and we would talk alot about Martial arts. Bruce Lee was his favorite and we were both convinced that he could beat anyone from any time period in any mixed martial arts match, even without grappling. Anyway, getting back to this, my friend said that Bruce Lee had so much control over his body and muscles that he was able to hold an 80lbs dumbell straight out in front of him with one arm for a whole minute!
Trust me, I didn't believe it either, but mind u, i studied boxing, and Karate for a few years, and am a very skilled fighter.(not to toot my own horn) Based on my sparring with him, I come to 2 conclusions.
1. IMH to God opinion, with the right training and direction, this guy could be the next Bruce Lee, and he could prove his greatness challenging all comers! I've witnessed him do things i wont mention cause people would deem it impossible. For one, he was able to do a full one arm, 2 finger push-up using the thumb, and index finger. The same index finger he once broke at the joint. Pretty amazing!
2. Due to all his knowledge on the martial arts, including Bruce Lee, and me knowing he is a straight shooter, and has never bullshitted anything, I believe him. Where he obtained this knowledge is still unknown, but I believe him.

Saw a tv show 1 night that was on Bruce Lee & I think it was the actor Lee Marvin (?) that was telling a story of witnessing Lee's 1" punch.Supposedly when it connected w/the guy he hit the force knocked him back about 8-10 feet!!

i once saw a guy in ufc beat tank like he was a baby. and he didn't grab tank even once just fast fast fast punches. this guy was quick... anyone seen that fight. he had tank covering up like a little kid. think about this. bruce lee was twice as fast as that guy. okay tank is just a brawler but he got beat like nothing.

Bruce Lee would be killed by Chuck Norris in any kind of fight unless ole Brucy Boy managed to poke his eyes or kick him in the sack. Bruce was just an angry little man with a Napolean complex. He would lose to any serious fighter.

I know u must be joking. I'm not gonna rival this with u but i see your either misinformed, or are talkin shit to aggravate people here who like Bruce Lee. I say u r misinformed because Bruce Lee already beat Chuck Norris like he wasn't even a martial artist. So get your facts straight, or stop posting bullish!

Okay fine. it's safe to say that Bruce Lee is much much faster than Belfort and there aren't much better srikers than Bruce Lee. That means he'd be one of the best to say the least.

Bruce Lee was an actor/martial artist, nothing special. He was handsome, had martial arts skills, made it sound mystical and shit and the West ate it up, (like they do with all new fads). After the success of his movies in the States, he could've told people to eat shit for breakfast and they probably would.
Its amazing how a movie actor can really put people in awe. Bruce spins some chains around and makes funny noises in greased up poses and some of you think he was God like.
Chuck Norris would smoke Bruce Lee in a real fight and the only reason Chuck doesn't say that is because it would have been suicide to his own fledgling film career. You dont slam a world famous person like Bruce and expect not to get blacklisted.
I'm not trying to say Bruce sucked ass but he wasn't as great as some of you are making him out to be.

Someone posted a few pages back that Chuck DID defeat Bruce in a sparring match.
When they did that scene in Colosseum, the story goes that Chuckie Boy started to go all out full contact, and it made Bruce real pissed, therefore he pinched a good piece of carpet from the chest of Chuckie, and went on to totally destroy that stiff legged fellas entirely.
I would love to see all the footage that were taken when that scene was filmed. When you look at the end of the scene, it is quite obvious that Chuckie Boy bit off more than he could chew, his face is weary and dusted, hehe.
Chuckie Boy got PWNED.
BTW, that is the only time Chuckieman has ever played the bad guy.

This is the most sense in all this thread.I first watched enter the dragon when i was 5 (older brothers) and the vhs tape was then played at least 100 times in the next 10 years.Bruce was an incredibly charismatic,lean and handsome asian star who literally took over a camera when he was on it.My brothers would tell me that bruce developed a muscle in his body noone else had, through one inch punching no less.They also said he won this title and that title, numerous times.Guess what, I ate it up, I had all his films (all 5 of them) posters, nunchackas and the lunch box.I boxed in my teens and then took an interest in the fighting arts as a whole.Streetfighters,boxers, wrestlers , you name it I watched and read about it and thats whn it dawned on me.Bruce Lee was a movie star and someone with a good knowledge of martial arts, no more.
I read all the books on Bruce, watched all the video footage, what did I learn?Bruce won 0 titles, in fact never competed in a tournament.He routinely got his ass handed to him as a teen when streetfighting.In fact the one organised fight Bruce ever had, you know what happened?All those years of Wing Chun, all that training, Bruce within 30 seconds was panting,wheezing and all the techniques of wing chun went out the window and it turned in to the swing fest you see on a friday night outside the local bar.And this was against some nomark fighter from a local dojo.This is by Bruces admission folks, look it up.
His great feats of strength...This one really erks me,apart from in his fingers, Bruce possesed no great amount of strength.He worked on his finger strength religiously and at 140 it isnt hard to do bodyweight exercises.DIet down to 140 then spend 5 years on finger strength with the same passion you lift normally and ill laugh at you if you cant do finger pushups by then.Bruce weighed 140 at around 6% bf and benched 160 for 10.that means at 20% bf Bruce would have weighed around 165,would you find it remarkable for a guy in your gym with the latter stats BP 160 or curling 80?I didnt think so, In fact I see this every day.The one inch punch is a gimmick that has been done better by many people better since.
Heres something for the doubters to do, go watch an organised fight that most resembles a streetfight.Something like UFC or K1.Watch the styles that work.In other words Boxing and grappling.Bruces foundation style wing chun relied pretty much soley on very precise blocks,grabs and counters which have very little effect in a real fight.Real fights involve punching and then usually rolling round on the floor.Watch UFC the fights always start with some boxing then straight in to a grapple.Bruce would last 5 seconds in a ufc bout.Mike Tyson would kill Bruce in a ring or out of it.Organised fighting Have weight classes for a reason people. for the safety of lighter fighters.
Anyway I have written too much now.Bruce was a marvel on the screen and looked like he could beat your ass in 5 seconds.But then so did Keanu Reeves in the Matrix.Its Hollywood folks, dont read too much in to it.

bullshit, i would have killed Bruce Lee, i don't care how skilled he was, he was just too damn small and skinny, i would have got him on the ground and smashed him, end of story.
ok "sarcasm" haha

you're probably 107lbs. like him.

From what I understand Bruce Lee was all about being opened minded and mix things up, if he would have lived today instead of the 60's I picture him to be like Genki Sudo

Thats the one thing all the "experts" on here forget.
Bruce was acting in movies when he was a teenager. He was an actor first and martial artist second and when he learned how gullible the West was with all that mystery, mystical, spritual meditation kung fu, fad stuff, he milked it for all it was worth. Years later, people still believe he could jump over a building as is evidenced by some of the people here.
-
actually he was in his early 30's
-
actually he was in his early 30's
When he died yes, but he actually started acting as a child, appearing on chinese tv as a 1 year old and next as a 6yr old, he came from a theatrical family.

When they did that scene in Colosseum, the story goes that Chuckie Boy started to go all out full contact, and it made Bruce real pissed, therefore he pinched a good piece of carpet from the chest of Chuckie, and went on to totally destroy that stiff legged fellas entirely.
I would love to see all the footage that were taken when that scene was filmed. When you look at the end of the scene, it is quite obvious that Chuckie Boy bit off more than he could chew, his face is weary and dusted, hehe.
Chuckie Boy got PWNED.
BTW, that is the only time Chuckieman has ever played the bad guy.

YUP! That's pretty much what happend. Like I said. People just love to shoot the king down. Always. Actually, he said himself that as he trained on his lawn many times someone would be at his fence, or jump the fence and challenge him to a fight. He would stop what he was doing, and whoever was in his presence he'd say,"I'll be back in less than 3 minutes" and he'd proceed to take out whoever it was in no more than 2 or 3 moves. Then he'd go back to what he was doing. Even guys near double his size were actually easier challenges due to the lack of speed in which they posessed. I think speed and technique will always beat raw power. Sorry to burst the bubble of those here who think they can beat a trained fighter just with strength. I know it's hard to believe, but accepting defeat is half the battle.

"Like everyone else you want to learn the way to win, but never to accept the way to lose. To accept defeat, to learn to die is to be liberated from. So free your ambitious mind, and learn the art of dying."

Thanks, I knew someone would know this stuff. My martial arts knowledge and love of it is almost identical to yours. I started when i was 6 and stopped at 20 and have been off and on since the age of 25, Im now 33.
I started with Karate, Tea kwon Do, wrestling, kick boxing and the last year and a half has been Pancration. In my experience its all useless bullshit for defense, (except mixed martail arts/boxing/wrestling). Tea Kwon Do, karate, Kung Fu all suck and have no purpose except maybe to learn the basics of kicking and punching and conditioning. But in actual fighting, its almost useless against an experienced boxer or grappler. Its all Kata's and forms. Thats how you get your belts. Kung Fu being the worst offender, its all ballet in my opinion.
Kicking guns and knives out of hands? ::) Blocks that would break your own arm. ::) This is just such basic knowledge if you've been involved in martial arts.

Completely Agree.Its a shame most people are sucked in by the BS of KungFu.I still enjoy martial arts films but they are up there with LOTR films for me in terms of fantasy.I cringe whenever I see "Who would win lee or Gracie" or "In how many seconds would Lee beat Lennox Lewis".It simply needs to be understood that the best way to win a fight has to be ways that are instinctive.

pffft, Bruce Lee would have backflipped over the guy then given him the touch of death.
-
You cant deny Bruce Lee the fact that he had awesome form, technique and amazing speed and control. When it comes to a fight it all about the fighters mentality and confidence is beating his opponet which i think lee was a master of but its also true that somtimes the big guy can get ahold of somone small and crush them. I myself prefer grappling and short powerful strikes when i get into a fight or just fuckin around with people.
-

I know alot of guys that get very confident after a few beers and think they are Bruce Lee.......untill they wake up after getting their faces smashed in.

This thread as devolved into conjecture and hersey, period. Most of these stories are just that, stories. Plain and simple. I've heard the story about Bruce Lee being randomly challenged except it would be on the street somewhere, not at his house. This is how "legends" are created, by exaggeration and games of story time telephone, just like the gossip one hears day to day. Change a few facts here, add some other details there and boom, a new "Bruce once chopped a redwood down with his fingers, cause he does finger pushup for 10 hours straight while screaming Waaaaa!" Give me a break, Bruce was great, I admit that, but lets get fucking real.

Did you even read my post you f*ck face, i stated my thoughts and opinions ass clown. Also how would you know how much i know about bruce lee, maybe i have read alot of articles and seen alot of documentarys on him or maybe i am just talkin shit but fact is you dont know 8)
-
thats the pic of Bruce i was looking for, its from Way of The Dragon and he was freakishly muscular for a man of his weight. "He sparsely used weights, but he did use them". His forearms were as hard as dried cement!
I didn't bother reading any of the rest of this post after this...go back to Bruce Lee school....he was a weight lifting fanatic...and lifted daily and religiously. To say sparsley, but did use them...is TOTALLY incorrect.
Sorry if anyone has already said this....
-
Alright, I relent. MiketheMachine, those were my opinions that I said in my post, so fuck off yourself. Eitherway, your tag line seems to be correct in its statement that you are indeed "unstoppable" in fact, you have the look of a man who could grow a powerful beard.

haha. I've actually been in a situation very similar to this. It was a Mexican gangster and he was going to sell me a gun for 35 USD but suddenly he pulled a green glass shiv on me and told me to get in this apartment. I grabbed his throat with one hand and pushed him against the wall, grabbing his weapon hand with my other hand. Then I let go and punched him a thousand times with straight karate punches in a horse stance until he crumbled just like Vito Belfort vs. Tank Abbott. I didn't jump on him when he went down because I didn't know if he would pull a gun, so I let him run away. Had a bunch of glass in my hand. He was a tad shorter than I, but he was stocky. He outweighed me by about 10 pounds.
I do believe a karate black belt with fight experience would defeat most boxers. (Boxers don't kick.)
Don't see many boxers in the UFC.
Bruce Lee..... I think the appeal is the Western fascination with the orient. The magical orient oohhh ahhhh! LOL. The wisdom of the orient. haha. Better take some tiger penis instead of that viagra. lol. Bruce was a highly skilled and devoted person - but he was by no means the best. I seriously believe Chuck Norris would destroy Bruce Lee in an actual fight. It's funny how the amount of weight he could hold out in front of him was 75 pounds by one account on this thread, and 80 pounds by another account haha. See how this shit get's started? lol. All this is hearsay. He would beat up people at his fence all the time? hahaha.
BTW, pound per pound - Richard Sandrak was the strongest in the world. :)
-
why would chuck norris win? because he knows karate or tae kwon do? because he's bigger than lee? those are very stiff kinda styles and since when does chuck norris have fighing experience? he was a champion at that point fighting stuff. bruce lee was stronger and DEFINATELY faster. You can say Bruce Lee as faster than _______ and fill in the blank with anyone. Bruce Lee practiced and learned things from lots of martial arts, started developing his own art which essentially was mixed martial arts and was the ambassador for a more realistic competition in his time and not that point fighting stuff they do in karate. didn't you all see in bruce lee a warrior's journey that he would take all these champions from different martial arts and teach them more practical fighting in his school? it was in the news papers. even if we threw that all out bruce lee was a master of Wing Chun. Wing Chun is a pretty good style. Anyone ever seen Sifu Jose Grados? That guy has a public access show in New York city... if you see him you'll know that guy can fight. he's teaches a class he calls Street Combat. It's basically practical fighting with Wing Chun as a base. he also is good at grappling. Bruce Lee would have wiped the floor with Chuck Norris if he didn't actually do it in real life because Bruce Lee taught him. Look it up. And by the way guys... the one inch punch is just for show but so are flying kicks so Chuck's fancy kicks wouldn't matter. Bruce Lee in the movies did fancy stuff but of course, he knew just what the people wanted to see.
-
Chuck Norris actually did kick ass in full contact karate matches. He was a champion in his weight class. Full-contact karate fighters get all kinds of nasty injuries - broken ribs, ankles, you name it. Most will agree Bruce was highly skilled - but my money would be on Chuck in a UFC style fight.
-
what are the rules of full contact karate?
-
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/fb/Karate.jpg)
Full contact karate
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Full contact karate has many different derivatives but two main fundamental styles. One is similar to other competition karate where targets are specified and a clear strike to that target gain a full or half point. The blows are delivered with full contact, although heavy padding is often worn and in some cases body armour is also worn. The fight is stopped while points are awarded.
The other, and some would say more 'hardcore' form of full-contact, is known as knockdown karate. This style of fighting was pioneered by the Kyokushinkai, founded by Masutatsu Oyama. In fighting the competitors have no or minimal shin padding and no body protection other than groin guards. Face punching and groin and joint attacks are prohibited but all bare-knuckle strikes to the body, thigh kicks, body kicks, head and face kicks are permitted, as are sweeps. Score is only made by knocking your opponent to the floor, or incapacitating them, or by sweep and controlled follow-up for half a point. See Kansuiryu Karate for full contact karate in Australia and links to Japan. Full contact karate tournaments are held each year sponsored by the World Kansuiryu Karate Federation, based in Mie, Japan. This tournament is open to all full contact styles and is usually in October.
-
http://www.masutatsuoyama.com/masoyama.htm
Mas Oyama I believe would also defeat Bruce Lee. He was the first champion of the All Japan Karate Tournament. He was able to strike off the horn of a live bull with his bare hand. And this can be verified unlike Bruce Lee's claims. There are pictures and videos of him doing this in front of crowds.

Dude in the video was a beast but lee was quicker, i think if they went at it could go either way.

Unless Bruce Lee killed some chick, had sex with her dead body, stuffed it into the trunk of his car, set it on fire, and drove the flaming vehicle into an orphanage, he's "second-tier" news this week.
-
Jesus!! Bruce weighed 100 lbs.!!!!!!!!! Why are you all so crazy about his body????????
-
First off, my old Sensai Miazaki beat Chuck Norris in a Tornament, and he had the clipping in the dojo I trained in to prove it. Second, I have video conference of the one inch punch of Bruce Lee, and the guy he did it to really did go flying at least 10 feet. 3rd, he held a 70lb dumbell out to his side for seconds. Front raises are always done with more weight, so what I stated isn't far fetched from what I heard of him holding the 80lb dumbell out in front of him for a minute. Yeah, he was the real deal. The focus he had was unbeatable! Whoosh! I just got a strong craving for a big n tasty from McDonalds. Or a big mac!
-
well Norris was my First Sensei (Kwang Jang Nim Norris in Korean) and he got beat by Tony Tulleners, Joe Lewis, Frank Smith, etc
-
Frank Dux would kick all their asses!!!
;D

I was just watching old (80's) fights of Mike Tyson in his prime on ESPN classic . He could beat the fvcking shit out of both of those martial arts guys at the same time. He hit Jesse ferguson with a five punch combination in about a second and a half. Iv'e never seen someone who had that much power AND that hand speed. Bruce lee did all sorts of cool shit,but it was staged. Mike ripped off combos like that in the ring, and the other person wasn't just letting him do it. BIG difference. He hit this one dude and literally knocked him halfway across the ring, guy was an animal.

funny how chuck states he was undefeated world champion for 5 years ::) I have a Bruce DVD which shows alot of home footage with steve mqueen etc at his house and alot of his students and friends speaknig about him. They say that Bruce had several fights with people, one noticable fight being with a karate sensei from the area. He challenged Bruce and Bruce accepted. Basically, after no more than 3 seconds, the fight was over and the karate guys mates were screaming for Bruce to stop hitting him
Dont be fooled about Bruces ability to make you go "wow" onscreen because he adapted his fighting especially for that. In real life he would have knocked the shit out of people like chuck norris, there was no one else like him. He trained constantly, had freakish power. Ive got the footage of him side kicking a 230lb man holding a bag, and the guy goes flying. ive also got the fotage of his 1 inch punch. There is a chair placed behind the guy for safety so he can land in it and he goes flying over it.
-
alot of his students and friends speaknig about him ... They say that Bruce had several fights with people ...
Unfortunately, they ALWAYS "say" this. No film or official competitive record to support any of it.
"They" also say he's still alive, you know, drinkin' espresso shots with Jim Morrison, Elvis, and Tupac ... somewhere in the south of France.
-
haha. Yeah where is the empirical evidence. Chuck would kill Bruce. He said on the radio Bruce was an actor when asked who would win.
-
Who cares? Quite a few people apparently. Looks like you are alone.

ok we all agree that Bruce Lee could take on anybody except maybe Muhammad Ali.. cool.. its over for ya punks! Go back to the Magical Man Ass board thank you

this is all hogwash, much like Paul Anderson's "1200 pound" squat. Bruce lee, nor any other 130 lb man (or 230 for that matter) can defy physics.
-
he had great lats for a guy of his size. He was so fast that he purposely had to slow down his fight scenes because on film he appeared like a blur - FACT
-
. He was so fast that he purposely had to slow down his fight scenes because on film he appeared like a blur - FACT
He also shrunk his lats, purposely, 'cause they wouldn't fit the frame.
That's what they say.

On any given day with the right timming I could knock the f**k out of anybody on this here fuckin planet.
The same could be said for anyone else on this board.
No matter how tough someone is there is always someone tougher right around the corner. All it takes is timming, williningness and no hesitation.
My ol' man always told me if you have to hit someone to save your ass hit them like your putting your fist in one ear and out the other, then get the hell out of there. ;)
One's record over another means nothing unless one is going to fight per the rules of that style yadda yaddda yadda.
Those ballet classes just don't do it for you anymore? What hapened? You never could get as flexible as the guy doing your girlfriend?
-
what the fuck are timming and williningness, Special Forces tactics or something? I understand what youre saying but the chanecs of that for 99% of people are very very slim. You have to have perfect timing and know where and how to hit someone when the chance arises. You could also get lucky by lashing out but i havent seen that happen too often
