At 5'6" and 135 pounds the UFC doesn't even have a weight class for him.

He was 5'7" and had the power of a heavyweight

Lee was very influential and he is quoted as being the godfather of mma. I believed he reached a top bodyweight of 160 -170 lbs in his lifetime. He was serious about weight training.

Without modern day mma training, he would not do well simply due to the fact that the sport has evolved so much since his passing.

Any champion or former champion from 135-265 would have Bruce turned out sucking cock in no time if they wanted. Wing chun alone would get destroyed in teh octagon.

One good thing about MMA is that it exposed what works and what doesnt.Wing Chun and the hybrid MA Bruce made (name escapes me at this time) is so ineffective in real life.Its simple if you cant box and you cant wrestle then you have no place in a real fight.Also weighing 127 pounds wont help you much either.

lol. yeah right...impossible.

power is a function of levers and muscle mass. A small dude simply doesnt have the mechanics to generate the same power as a larger guy.

thats why we have weight divisions as it sets similar sizes against each other otherwise the big guys would always win.

it really is as simple as that.

I think Bruce would have done awesome.  But he would never get past guys like Jose Aldo:

 Bruce Lee would probably do well in the MMA because he would have retrained in Jiu jitsu techniques and learned MMA style fighting.

 He wasn't a street fighter though. He seemed more like a true martial artist.

Bruce was the father of MMA.  He believed in blending various martial arts in order to become an rounded martial artist.  I forget which movie it is, but he actually does a a classic BJJ armbar.

Bruce Lee's crescent kick would send Cro Cop to the cemetery.

In their prime, in a real fight, Bruce Lee wouldn't last two minutes against Chuck Norris

He submits Sammo at the beginning of Enter the Dragon.
