Jim Kelly said in an interview that Bruce Lee was the best fighter he ever saw.
That would mean more if Jim Kelly actually saw him fight a real fighter 🤔🤔🤔. Jim Kelly talk about bruce lee fighting skills in practical combat . That’s what he was praising . He didn’t say Bruce lee was the best fighter I ever saw fighting 😂.
As far as demonstrations ? Yeh I guess Bruce lee was the best 😂😂.
What you failed to mention about that interview is that him kelly was talking about Bruce Lee’s sparring ability’s. That’s it.
As far as proof that he can stand with pro fighters 🤔. Never had been proved.
Only speculated . And Jim Kelly is one of those who speculated 😉
That can be done today aswell , 😉. Understand that’s just him Kelly’s personal opinions on Bruce lee. Even thought Jim has never seen Bruce lee fight real pro fighters he still made the comment based on what his personal opinion is.
Jim Kelly who was a real pro fighter said anyone in Bruce Lee’s weight class Bruce lee would beat 😂. Again even though Bruce lee has never fought a pro fighter 🤔.
Just because Jim made the comment Doesent mean it’s so . Jim himself has lost 30 fights in his career. He was a badass. One of the best . A real fighters. Not a speculated fighter like Bruce lee.

And you are?
Alot of people have opinions I loved Bruce Lee but everyone can be beat period.
130 plus vs 200 don't mathematically work out well
Joe Lewis said he knew how strong Bruce Lee hit because he got hit. He wasn't laughing. So honest.
Joe said Bruce hit hard while drilling with pads. He stated that Bruce wasnt a fighter.
@@cuzz63 so why did he learn about Jeet Kune Do?,learning a system from a “false fighter” would be stupid
@@shenglizhe389 do you really not know? Maybe a little research? Bruce came to Joe and asked to work with him as a coach. Joe first blew him off because he didn't think Bruce had anything to offer since Bruce wasn't known as a fighter or even a coach. later on working with Mike Stone he learned Bruce had some really good ideas so he started training with him. Joe stated that he was Bruce's lab rat proving his ideas, he also stated Bruce was not a fighter but a great coach. Bruce himself didnt claim to be a fighter so calling him a "false fighter " is disingenuous. Anyone that has done the research knows this. Bruce was a student of fighting, he studied and formulated ideas, he wasnt a fighter.
There are many great coaches who were not fighters, anyone thats been in the fight game knows that.
@@cuzz63 I'm confirming what you insinuated,saying that he is not a fighter
@@shenglizhe389 I didnt say Bruce was not a fighter. I said he wasnt a proven fighter. Joe stated Bruce wasnt a fighter but a coach. His statement was also explaining why he trained with Bruce.
I have always heard nothing but adoration and kind words on the part in interviews with Chuck Norris and others who knew Bruce Lee. Ever since the Quentin Tarantino film came out people want to bash Bruce Lee's legacy. He has been gone since 1973. He isn't able to defend himself is he?
Right. It's all these new age Gen Z weenies! They're so disrespectful! Everything has to be compared to MMA and the cage and etc when Bruce Lee was coming up with stuff that would work in the real world and not some sport event.
Plus, these new agers don't like that there's nothing new under the sun and want credit for everything good and they're like our saviors. Pathetic bunch and I hate this era to be honest and it's only going to get worse.
@@gqloc6768 exactly
True that, his record speaks for himself and that’s just that.
@@noelcurtis5439 I'm a huge Bruce Lee fan but I'm wondering what RECORD you are referring to?
@@vedder10 sup marlon, lol 😆. Misunderstanding, I do t believe he competed professionally ( correct me if I’m wrong ) but growing up and admiring Bruce in film and learning that he took on other skills sets so he can be the best Bruce lee he can be, is all I meant by his record speaks for himself. You may know even more than I do but I’m definitely and respectfully a fan myself, since a kid and I’m 45 now so. God bless you marlon.
Another problem with this is that Kareem Abdul jabber wrote in his book about sparring matches between Bruce and a lot of these karate guys from Norris to Lewis and he said that when he saw Norris and Bruce spar Norris face looked like an apple.
That's funny. In a recent interview, Lee historian John Little said when he mentioned Bruce and Joe never sparring to Ted Wong, Ted told him Joe and Herb Jackson (the student who build a lot of Bruce's training equipment) were sparring one day when Joe threw a wicked open-hand slap that almost busted the man's eardrum. Bruce was not happy about that, asked for Herb's gloves, then, in Little's words, “showed Joe that he didn't have all the answers." As for Kareem, he laughed and said they were training at Bruce’s house when it was suggested that Joe and the big man go at it. Bruce then whispered to Kareem exactly how to handle his opponent and, according to him, Lewis couldn't do a damn thing.
Haha
Yes norris looks like an apple although he is or the title that he hold but in real life confrontation we may not know the fact is he able to react to real fights.As what he assume to everyone that he has and does in real life conforntation...
As for lewis he is a worn of man with a big mouth but lucky he manage to have his collections of his teeths until now as the title he said he hold was presume but not to be..Sometime in life do be honest ofwhat you have and not that you dont have ..

I'm just going to leave this here. "Bob Wall, USPK karate champion and Lee's co-star in Enter the Dragon, recalled one encounter that transpired after a film extra kept taunting Lee. The extra yelled that Lee was "a movie star, not a martial artist," that he "wasn't much of a fighter". Lee answered his taunts by asking him to jump down from the wall he was sitting on. Wall described Lee's opponent as "a gang-banger type of guy from Hong Kong," a "damned good martial artist," and observed that he was fast, strong, and bigger than Bruce.
This kid was good. He was strong and fast, and he was really trying to punch Bruce's brains in. But Bruce just methodically took him apart. Bruce kept moving so well, this kid couldn't touch him...then all of a sudden, Bruce got him and rammed his ass with the wall and swept him up, proceeding to drop him and plant his knee into his opponent's chest, locked his arm out straight, and nailed him in the face repeatedly". - Bob Wall
Nice 👍. Another story of Bruce lee beating up a movie extra actor . When you hear a real story about bruce lee fighting a pro let me know 😂. Incredible Bruce beats up an actor . And the one telling the story tries to enhance the actors credentials as a fighter 😂😂. I wonder one thing ? What was the actors name? He took time to articulate the ass whipping but no names right ?
Just saying the kid was good and strong ? Yeh ok. 😂
Was told that the challenger on that set was actually bolo Chen . Of course by delusional lee fans. Till it was debunk and came out that bolo was the one telling the story of the fight with the extra actor.
Bob wall and bolo spoke of the same actor brice lee beat up. 2 different stories. Bolo didn’t say the actor was good and strong and all that crap. Bob wall did 😉🤔🤔.
Wall was a strong Bruce lee protagonists for many years. So I’d imagine he’d spiced up the story just a little bit for bruce lees bennifit😉😉😉.
Trying To make the actor a hard fight for lee 😂
While bolo story made more sence . Lee whipped him and the kid didn’t have a chance. He was an actor and nothing more 😂
@@eddieberrios5626 OK! I know of a few , Ernest Lieb the first man to ever take the Korean championship away from the Koreans in his weight class, Lieb is in the karate hall of fame, he wS also in black belt hall of fame, Lieb also trained with superior Bill Wallace, Chuck Norris, Lieb was not only a champion in full con karate but he also started his own style called," The American Karate System. " Lieb tells the story of when he fist met Bruce Lee in his karate manual, Lee was telling everyone about his system, Lieb hearing this and just taking the championship away from the Koreans thought he could easily beat Lee, so he asked Lee to show him . They went to a nearby dojo and started to spar , Lee knocked Lieb down as they where coming up from the bowe , Lee telling Lieb never take your eyes of an opponent, even in a bowe. Lieb thinking now I'll show him what I have! Lieb say he was throwing everything he had at Lee and that he was trying to hurt Lee, lieb states in his Manu that while he was giving Bruce everything that he had Bruce was just playing with him and was talking all the time telling lieb what he was doing wrong. Lieb was built a lot like bruch but heavier muscled. Lieb could not believe what had just happened, he ate a whole lot of humble pie. They became good friends and I believe he even trained with Lee some after that. Lieb has pictures in his manual of him and Bruce. So there is your one champion who Bruce easily wiped . But if you listen to all the world champions who did spar with Lee they all pretty much said the same thing, he hit as hard as any heavyweight and was faster. I have even heard a open mic recording of Chuck Norris being asked if he thought he could beat Bruce in a real fight, he said absolutely not. This is when Bruce was alive. Now Chuck Norris avoids the question, for obvious reasons.
@@rupertboy3921 please. 😂😂. I’m so tired of these fantasy stories. 😂.
Please direct me to that account by earnest lieb. Where did you read this story from. 🤔🤔🤔
Because I can’t find it in mr liebs whole bio .
And if you don’t ? That means yiur just hyping up some bullcrap story you read from another lee fan.
@@eddieberrios5626 My mother got her black belt from Ernest Lieb, I took it for awhile and got a certificate signed by Ernest Lieb, I read his story in his manual. You can Google his name and read about him, you even might be able to get hold of one of his manuals if you write to one of his dojo, though he was killed in a train accident in Germany a few years ago I'm sure he still has karate studios around that you might be able to get one of his manuals to read it your self.
@@rupertboy3921 I did. There’s no story about him getting bested by Bruce lee .
Indont make comments if I don’t know the story. And so far there’s nothing.
You saw it somewhere. Just tell me the title and where you saw it. I googled already and there’s nothing.
So in his manual your saying he tells a story about a fight he lost with lee?😂🤔🤔. In a manual?
Your the first person ever that I’ve read in 7 years to tell that story. I searched. There is no story of what you wrote. If you ever find it please share.

He said "Chuck would have hurt Bruce IF he could hit him". A lot of people would have hurt Bruce IF they could hit him.
If chuck would beat lee
@@castlewoods4753 Which he would, the guy was being polite about Lee
Check my post I've just done
@@simonhengle8316 Just saw your videos, disliked em al. What terrible training. Better off doing Yoga and Pillate's as that's good for your health. Training technique without training the basics is just a no no. Especially if the technique is just hilarious bad. Saw some of your students throw kicks and go off balance, even your kick was unbalanced as you lean too far backwards.
Have them throw punches at the same speed (slow is fine, but both should be active, not one) or defensive techniques. Stationary isn't training. They're not even exercizing.
Also did you use real Kukri's? That's very fucking irresponsible. Use wooden or plastic weapons that cannot slice or pierce. But even those are dangerous so using rubber weapons is better. You don't get used to a weapons weight, that's for actual weapon training. In unarmed defence never use real weapons or on any person, at all. If you want to spar use bamboo swords or weapons that are heavily taped or rubberized. As anything of a weapon can cause serious damage. Especially if you have no clue wtf you're doing with those.

Amazing to see how fast Bruce Lee could kick above his sparring partners head in the sparring video. He didnt even struggle. All we see is a flash of his leg. And thats all I need to see to know how lethal Bruce Lee was. A kick so fast you cannot even see coming upside your head or under your chin... well folks, it would be game over.
Cameras 50yrs ago were cheaper in focus than todays cameras
Chuck never beat Bruce in many of the sparring sessions. Bruce had a short period where he was absolutely phenomenal at sparring and could beat all of his group! He had great power and timing in all four limbs! His development on top however, was due to the talent of the Men around him. You only get called good, by your training partners!
not true, they had a real match Bruces mom and brother were there and they talked about it once... it was a fight behind closed doors because chuck wanted to see if he was a real world champion but he lost AND when he's asked about it later on in interviews chuck says he didn't wanna go their with bruce lool
Just face it you boy got his ass kick
@Silver Stacker bruce was a street fighter omg you don't even know his history.... plzs go look up some or the heavyweight boxers that are interview he beat... bruce wasn't an actor... Joe lewis couldn't even touch bruce like come on ..
@Silver Stacker if you really can't look past your ignorance that's sad... so much proof your blind to
There's guy such as Norris, moore,, Joe lightfoot, Kelly etc.. but there will never ever be a BRUCE different league n speed.. it like those guys are ncaaf football team vs Bruce nfl superbowl team nothing to compare
According to real fight channel.
One of the students of Bruce Lee's have witnessed that, Bruce Lee's beat Chuck Norris in a sparing. Since then that's when Chuck Norris became Bruce lee's student for two years. According to other videos, even Jim Kelly have said, no one could beat Bruce Lee. And he's said that, he wasn't gonna name names. Because that would embarrass them
Yes, Chuck was a student of Bruce Lee and became so after Bruce beat him in sparring and in this recording Bruce says he's taking them like kids coming to learn ua-cam.com/video/xB5ljsQFSZ8/v-deo.html
@@DinamBigny I remember listening to the audio of Bruce Lee,saying that teaching them its like teaching a child. And that, he had to retrained them all over again.
Hilarious, Jeff Smith told me that both Chuck Norris and Bob Wall beat Lee in sparring, and Jeff knew all of them well
So sorry for the delayed reply Dinam.
I also recalled Bruce Lee mentioned that as well on his audio. Bruce Lee has also said that, he had to teach them in a correct way.
@@chili40m 😂
My TDK instructor was a ranking instructor at Chuck Norris's 1st degree black belt test at Osan base in Korea. My instructor tells us stories of how hard the training was in those days in Korea. Right there where Chuck got his roots!.................On another note, a kid from one of our satellite schools had a young kid with very severe burns from a BarBQ grill at a cookout using gas fire starter. Norris somehow got word of this and invited the whole family to his ranch in Texas while the kid healed. His mom told me they were at his ranch a long, long, long time! And Chuck treated them just like they were family!
The only people that don't like Chuck are the extreme Bruce Lee fans
Why is this even a question ??? Chuck Norris said in his own autobiography that he never could beat Bruce Lee but he felt Lee might have learned there is a place for high kicks in real combat sometimes from training with him. That’s in Chucks own words. Done. Talk about not doing research…
Wonder how much Chuck payed him to say this nonsense
Lmao stupid comment

Interview with Inosanto and Joe Lewis where Dan out right said Bruce didn’t think much of Chuck... what else do you want to hear? Name anyone ANYONE that said they beat Bruce Lee in a challenge or in sparring. One. Chuck wouldn’t even say it. Duh
Bruce could send a man back with a one inch punch .he had power and speed. The legend.
Bruce Lee was an awesome martial artist on film 🎥 and behind the scenes from what I understand. They can come out with all the nonsense about Bruce they want, you can’t rob him of his talent and skill set, period. Chuck Norris is the man too. 2 👍🏼👍🏼 thumbs up to them both.
I've heard several interviews where Chuck Norris was asked if he could beat Bruce Lee. He would usually laugh and say, "Are you kidding? Nobody could beat that guy."
Humility is part of martial arts
Beautiful expressions from a Master Pugilist.
Did you watch the video where chuck was ask why he didn’t fight lee ?
Chucked laughed and said because I’m a real pro fighter and Bruce lee is not 😂😂😂
And he got a lot of shit becaise he made a real obvious comment . Then 20 years later he apologized about that comment in the interview. He should not have . It’s was truth.
The interview your talking about ? Where is it. I’ve never heard chuck Norris say nobody can beat bruce lee . Please post the link , please😂😂😂
@Silver Stacker yes. Chuck praised him as far as his fitness and his practical martial arts fighting’s and teachings . But actual fighting brice lee did not do .
So many fans can’t come up with actual fights involving Bruce lee so they have to tell you what other fighters said about him😂.
Wich would mean wayyyy more if any of these guys actually say bruce lee in a real combat fight .
Fans hear these guys praise him and don’t understand that they are talking about Bruce lees practical martial arts concepts.
Because let’s be real , none of them saw him in a real fight 😂😂. So they can assume that brice would have done good in actual fighting 😂
This past week a ton of pro fighters assumed that rolly was gonna beat tank 😂😂. What happened. Rolly got knocked out 😂.
Nobody knows until they see this man in a real fight . Again none of them saw that .
@Silver Stacker 😂😂😂.
Because Ed Parker was an actual fighter 😂
He actually has a fight history around the world . Even as a teen 🤔
Lees delusional fan want to think lee trained Ed Parker. But that not true. They trained and learned from each other. But never was lee his teacher.
You know how delusional lee fans think 😂. If anyone was around lee , lee was their teacher 😂. Mostly fighters who were already champions before lee even touched foot in America . Some how lee still got credit for their success 😂😂😂
Ed Parker was just a real fighter. Not a Hollywood created myth 😂😂
Chuck would have a good chance in a controlled fight. U put them both in a room. Bruce is the only one coming out alive!!! AND THATS THE BOTTOM LINE.....
You got THAT right, DSarg1.
Agree. Norris was a traditional karate fighter. Lee quickly identified his opponent’s weakness and then exploited it, doing whatever was necessary to win.
Sorry but one man saw combat in the military and one did not.
@@chachiarcola3208 which opponents did Bruce exploit their weakness ?
Grandmaster Jhoon Rhee said Bruce Lee was untouchable unhittable and was like a literal fighting wizard need more be said about Bruce GM Rhee said he taught kicking in 1970 in his garage and in no time Bruce was kicking faster and more powerful than him just goes to show how talented Bruce was nuff said
Bruce clearly was better than Chuck although I have admiration for Chuck . Chuck tried to say he was better in an interview but later admitted he didn't beat him as he couldn't, Brue will remain the king of martial arts , now he's gone he'll be slandered . Sad days for those who want to put him down as they have little else going in their life , but if they have the should get on with it 💪
Bruce Lee was an actor, not a fighter.
One touch point fighting doesn’t make Chuck Norris a fighter! Bruce never competed at the time when he we in the states because there wasn’t any competitions where his particular art would fit in.. It was only karate v karate or judo v judo only etc… etc..
@Silver Stacker You keep telling yourself that! 😂 Bruce had more street life confrontations than Chuck ever did and that’s a FACT! Do you think a real street fight is one touch? 😂 Anyone can do touch fighting, but to commit to full contact with no holds barred and no rules is real fighting, none of that Nancy mamby you touch me and ill touch you back shit, or even worse on the floor rolling around like girls tugging and pulling on each other isn’t fighting!

Dear Bruce,Just a note to wish you great success on the movie and to clarify any misinterpretations you have heard about our training together.I have told hundreds of people I have trained with you.My ego is not such that I am
ashamed of it. It was a privilege learning from you. One thing I never do is mention you in the same breath with Kung Fu. I mention you as a master of the Martial Arts because of your
proficiency in all of themso I always say you are a master of your own Art.Anyway that is enough of that.Bruce, I hope 1973 is a great year for you and give my regards to Linda and the kids.

@@itubecollection1623 that's an understatement! There's an interview on UA-cam where it's revealed that Bruce made comments that Chuck's not really a fighter. Joe Louis and another guy interviewing Dan inosanto for a book they were working on
People are so naive if you have two skilled fighters such as Chuck and Bruce there will always be back and forth. Some days Bruce gets the better of the sparring and some days Chuck. People that think Bruce just dominates everyone all the time understand little about fighting.
working for hours on basics punches and kicks is one of the most importaint things in martial arts, you have to be able to hurt people when you strike
Chuck would smoke Bruce in a real fight. People dont realize how good Chuck is.
Joe Lewis is better competitor then Chuck Norris , but Bruce Lee is a phenomenon so I dismiss this guy saying otherwise .
Chuck Norris said Bruce Lee was the best of the best.
Interesting story that I recently read and apparently it was confirmed by Jackie Chan and Bolo Yeung himself.
On the set of Enter the Dragon, Bolo actually doubted Bruce Lee's strength. He said because Bruce was so light and fast he couldn't possibly possess alot of strength. Bolo approached Bruce and asked him to spar. Apparently they got into a heated debate and Bolo grabbed Bruce in a bear hug. Bruce apparently got free and struck Bolo in the chest with a punch. Bolo dropped to a knee and waved his hand in typical Bolo fashion saying that was it. He knew right then never to question Bruce's strength again. This was confirmed by Bolo himself, Jackie Chan and a few others who are still alive who were there. If this story is true and Bruce could drop a 240 lbs. Bolo with one punch, there's no question Bruce could do that to Chuck.
You are so right
Please provide a source and link to this story.
@Bigger Issues That's what bothers me, it's 2022 and there are still people who are stupid enough to believe and regurgitate anything they hear without verification or source. Truly pathetic how they are going to soil someone else's reputation for attention.
No it was alittle more to that story. Bolo was beat bloody in a submission!!after Bruce smacked his ass straight to the wall with a pin kick,and he starting hitting bolo with a straight right left punch until bolo then tapped saying that was it. And that's when he became friends with Bruce and Bruce I believe became I don't want to say his teacher,but he. Learned some things from Bruce Lee.

Just based on the footage of bruce in the TV show long street " -eye gouges, lead hooks, guillotine chokes, oblique kicks.
And this is in 1968, the guy was a little beast.
I think Chuck would beat Bruce, but Chuck said they never fought, they joked about it according to him
Chuck [martial arts-wise], learned WAY more from Bruce than Bruce learned from chuck.
The best martial artists are open minded enough to want to learn from others.
The problem with this is that he said early 70s and Bruce was living in Hong kong by that time and he didn't get back to the United States except once to get a medical check up after he fainted in 1973. And Bruce trained with chuck Norris in the late 60's and they didn't have contact except for the way of the dragon fight scene which was done in Rome. And that was their only contact. And they didn't spar each other. They just choreographed the fight scene.
exactly. chuck even said in an interview that neither of them "wanted to go there" ie spar, coz a result either way would have been bad for their friendship and ego. so either Chuck was lying or this guy is
@@austinsavage the dude is lying because it doesn't fit the proper time frame..
@@ArmandoAlejandro2014 ppl will say crazy shit just to get their 15 mins of fame
@@austinsavage I followed Bruce since the 70s so I know a lot about him. Kareem Abdul jabbar wrote in his book about seeing Bruce and chuck spar and Bruce was getting the better of chuck. in other words Bruce was beating the hell out of him.
I'm sure that both Chuck and Joe had some great sessions with Bruce. No Damn WAY did they NOT SPAR some times. No way, not with those ego's. Interesting to hear so many takes. I would imagine that its like anything else. Sometimes Chuck probably did "score better", BUT for him and Joe Lewis to CONTINUE working with this Man?....Means Bruce beat both their asses pretty good.☝
Bruce and Chuck used to train together and sometimes had private sparring going on but both respected each other and were good friends. All Chuck Norris said was "Bruce was the real deal in martial arts ".
The big question nobody asks, chuck took many beatings in the ring, and survived and thrived, how much could bruce take without the ring experience.
Bruce and Chuck were like the 2 sides of a coin. Let's call that coin: martial arts.
Bruce was a top athlete who constantly strove to take various martial disciplines and apply what he found useful to actual hand to hand combat. He incorporated taekwondo kicks, western boxing handwork, Wing Chun center line theory, judo throws etc with the purpose of application on the street.
Chuck was a top athlete dedicating most of his effort to sport karate, and was extremely successful at it: 6 time world champion. He adapted his martial arts to the quick pace of international competition.
I'm sure their sparring sessions were very interesting since they were both at the top of their game. More importantly, they really liked each other and had alot of respect for each other.
No they weren't...stop it. In fact Bruce said he wanted to kill Bruce Lee not in real life but on camera what he represents. Thats why all of Chucks movies & shows sucked. Thats why Bruce casted him...to beat the living snot out of him & his image.
Bruce was a Hollywood created myth as far as actual fighting. Practice fighting he was the best. Actual fighter ? Never.
Hasent prove a thing. Chuck would have whipped his butt if they fought.

number 2, Bruce chose Chuck to be in the climactic fight in Way Of The Dragon because Chuck was the current middleweight champion. Bruce wanted the best, most talented opponent he could find. I think at that time Chuck was a 4th or 5th dan moo duk kwan. He was technically advanced, and an actual competitive fighter. The 2 of them did work out together when they had the chance, and Bruce respected Chuck.

If he was just talented or even if he was a fake, someone would’ve called him out after how many decades now. That’s kind of mind boggling. Remember, he was a nobody during a racist time period. And he made such an impression to gain everyone’s attention.
And all these stories about someone beating Bruce, were never told when Bruce was alive.
Bruce’s student developed the fighting style taught to SEALS. I think that gives a little credit
THE INTERVIEWER DIDNT KNOW HOW TO ASK PROBING QUESTIONS,,
I saw in an old interview where Chuck was asked about Bruce. He was trying to be nice, but eventually said, "Bruce was is an actor, I'm a world champion."
No way in the world Chuck Norris could have beaten Bruce Lee, in a real fight or serious sparring match!!
You might be right, but tell me, which real fight of Bruce, do you base that assumption on ?
It was said in many intimate circles that chuck was no where near level of Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee was fanatic way before his time, 30 years while chuck was just a Point karate champion. Joe Lewis was much better true fighter than chuck Norris ever was. Bruce trained 40 hours a week in the 60s…
You obviously didn't watch the video lol
@@simonhengle8316 u obviously haven't done any true research if u think Chuck beats Bruce. No way. From the apologetic letter Chuck wrote to Bruce to all the stories from ppl very close to the situation. According to Dan Inasonto (Dan said this on camera and in front of Joe Lewis) Bruce told him Chuck was a good martial artist BUT not a good fighter. At that time, 1973, Bruce beats the dog shit out of Chuck!
@@jeffoconnor8159 don’t talk rubbish, Chuck best Joe three out of the four times they competed against each other, btw I knew Joe very before he died
@@simonhengle8316 that's nice u knew him. RIP Joe Lewis. Chuck couldn't and didn't beat Bruce Lee. Chuck besting Joe means nothing when we're talking about real fighting. I stand by what I said, again there are very reputable ppl who knew them all at that time and say/said all of this already. Nothing I said was rubbish. Bruce would've beaten the dog shit out of Chuck Norris in 1973.

Utter tosh, Jeff Smith World PKA Light Heavyweight 1974, said Lee couldn’t handle Chuck Norris or Bob Wall
Jeff Smith (whom I knew and stayed at my house) who knew Lee was a student of Jhoon Rhee, who tutored Lee on kicks as Norris had commitments else where. It was Norris that started Lee on high kicks after showing Lee their effectiveness.
Stop talking nonsense
You can easily draw your conclusion. After Bruce made Chuck an actor, Chuck constantly self-claimed he taught Bruce how to kick and fight. Bruce can take down any Karate championship in no time. If Chuck can defeat Bruce, pigs can fly.
I got the impression that he wanted to say Chuck won but didn't want to actually say it.
In a real fight Bruce would have used eye gouging, kicks to the groin etc and all kinds of things that end fights quickly.
But the truth is he wouldn't even need to fight like that. He was that good.
Why people believe a good martial artist like Bruce can't lose a sparring match against a champion with 20 pounds on him is beyond me. Bruce was great, but he was just human. Weight and height makes a difference when you have two good fighters .Why would that be different for Bruce?
no, Bruce is untouchable
bad judgment: Lee was Norris's instructor. Lee was better
@Dooray MArshall well...I have looked at several documentaries and read the biography written by his wife, and Chuck, which was a champ before meeting Lee, took courses (afterward)
with Lee
Wow, this gentleman not only could he remember those wonderful and most memorable scenes in the past he's also a great deal of Understanding...!!!
Bruce was 40?? He died when he was 32!?!?
They meant 140 pounds…
who are we to believe? there are two sides to every story. One side says Chuck and the other side said Bruce. Who's telling the truth and who' lying? Jim Kelly? William Cheung? Sam Spira?
Is simple was lee a real fight like Norris answer is no

I read that Chuck Norris said in a real fight against Bruce Lee that Chuck said he wouldn't stand a chance against Bruce Lee and he's right Bruce was faster stronger more skilled
Jackie Chan who was in enter the dragon and became friends with Bruce said Bruce Lee was the best period and he saw what Bruce Lee could do and Jackie is an expert himself and he's an honest man .
chuck Norris was interviewed he himself stated that Bruce Lee would beat him in a real fight to fast and strong.
Joe Louis addmitted before he passed that Bruce was the top dog know question!
Strongest man iv ever meet reflexes of cat quick as lightning and he punched like a heavyweight! He could grab you and you couldn't get away .
Sorry but chiuck was just not that good, and i have not once heard anyone talk about his speed or power!
You are either remembering it as you want to remember it or your lying, you are literally the only guy except Chuck himself that mentions in any way that Chuck did or even came close to Bruce, yet there are countless interviews from fighters of that time to back up the fact that Bruce was to good for all of these guys!
It doesn't matter who beat who. Fact is fact. This is the greatest duo ever in the martial world. This history will never repeat itself again. In the world of movie & martial arts these 2 have an unbroken record as the greatest.
Wrong!!! It does matter. And it did happen!! These guys just have a problem with the truth......bottom line
That was the issue I had with Bruce lee Movies. He never really had a knock down drag out fight scene with anyone and the Dragon movie with Chuck was about as close as you were going to get. Could it be EGO on his part? Was he that good that there was NO one in the martial Arts world capable of beating him? I doubt that. Even his respected Teacher, IP Man told him, it doesn't matter how good you are, there's always someone out there that can defeat you! I personally believe Bruce Lee feared that and he was very selective or fortunate enough not to find out!
@@ralphsanchico2452 You are correct bruh. Well said. Well that Hapkido guy in Game of Death gave Bruce a run for his money but I agree with you.
@@karriemburton9024 How do you know what happened ?
@@stevo62ful I'm not teaching you. Do your research......how do you know he didnt?
Bruce Lee kicked the crap out of mr norris.and I think most people know that.
In another interview, Chuck Norris was asked, if he could beat Bruce Lee, Chuck replied, Oh, i was a Professional, you know, and Bruce wasn't, so that says it all. Chuck has always been on an Ego trip, to say, i was a professional, i would have killed Bruce , no respect ever, when it comes to Bruce Lee .
"Bruce was incredibly strong for his size. He could take a 75lb barbell and from a standing position with the barbell held flush against his chest, he could slowly stick his arms out, lock them and hold the barbell there for 20 seconds, that's pretty damn tough for a guy who at the time only weighed 138lbs. I know 200lb weight lifters who can't do that." - Joe Lewis
He's also been filmed do 50 reps of one-arm pull ups, and jamming his fingers into pressurized steel cans (very thin steel, but still).
Dana White has called Bruce Lee "the father of mixed martial arts". Jeet Kune Do by it's very meaning is not a strict style but more of a philosophy. Lee has described it as "style without style", the whole point is do whatever works. It takes the most direct and effective route to the opponent known by the individual. Many UFC fighters take several styles of martial arts and make them their own, combining them all, this is Jeet Kune Do.
Gene Lebell even stated Bruce was the best martial artist of his time.
Bob Wall didn't fight Bruce Lee seriously. Chuck wrote about Bruce again in his WorldNetDaily column in 2011, describing both his skills as a martial artist and his physical gifts in a very complimentary manner;
“The truth is, Lee was a formidable opponent with a chiseled physique and technique. I totally enjoyed sparring and just spending time with him. He was as charismatic and friendly in the ring and at home as he was on film. His confidence and wit were dazzling, and sometimes even debilitating to others... Lee was lightning fast, very agile and incredibly strong for his size.” (Black Belt Magazine)
Chuck Norris also recounted that he thought Bruce Lee would have been the undisputed world champion if he ever fought professionally.
So it is very clear that Chuck still has great respect for his friend and the impression that Bruce made on Norris still lasts to this day. Bruce would go on to become an icon to millions around the world as his martial arts movies completely redefined the genre and captured the imagination of old and young alike. Norris achieved great on-screen success in his own right and I’m sure that he is secure enough in his own skills and his own legacy to not worry about whether Bruce was “better” than him in the ring, on the big
They only trained together, they never actually fought.
they tried not to hurt each other. So both would get the best of both at times.
You do not KNOW that!
this is a man who is lying
Bruce Lee and Chuck
hat real fight and Chuck Norris Lost the fight
you can't find out if you researching it
And you called that a believable source? I like you because you have a great sense of humor. When do people finally understand that Bruce Lee never had a real fight against a top fighter. Benny Urquidez would have destroyed him and Benny had Bruce´s size and weight.
@@Katzenhase i believe they wont understand sir...cos Lee had become billion dollar product...everybody would maintain the value of the product till the end of time...funny thing is lee only encounter with striking MA, never with Hybrid MA, which existed looooooong time before lee showed up, such as pancrase, vale tudo, combat sambo
Bruce Lee was young, and still learning so much. But 1 thing for sure, almost everyone challenged him. There was always someone trying to see Bruce lees strength, there are more stories of Lee being an absolute monster and solid as granite than not. I’m not saying that Bruce beat chuck. Because they never really fought.
Bruce is a legend but in mma today I really don’t think he would last. Those guys can take a beating and just keep coming forward till they take you down.Bruce was fast for sure but when using your speed you will not have the power behind.When Bruce did show his power punching a heavy bag the speed wasn’t there.
No way can Chuck Norris Chuck Norris cannot be the Bruce Lee
You mean there is no way lee con beat Norris
I could tell in one second that this guy knew what he was talking about, especially regarding the importance of bodyweight in an actual fighting situation. Bruce did some personal training in grappling with "Judo" Gene LeBell at his mountain dojo, and when I asked Gene how tough Bruce actually was, he told me that, "he knew several men who could break him in half like a toothpick." He stressed that movie fighting is quite different from street fighting, and that Bruce was an extremely small guy. But he also was amazed at his quickness, and one technique of Bruce's that he thought was particularly "inhuman," HIS SIDE KICK. He recalled that when he held up the bag to protect himself, "when Bruce kicked me, it felt like being kicked by a mule."
bruce also trained with hayward nishioka in judo too. go check what nishioka said about bruce. any of those wrestlers, judo, etc could break anyone that size but the question is can they touch him
MMA has been around since the earliest of times even back in the 1800s
Chuck competed. He was a fighter. Bruce was an actor and a martial artist. He has no fight record. Zero. All this stuff about what a great fighter he was is anecdotes and speculation. People need to get real. There are tons of guys from that era who put themselves out there fighting in the ring. Bruce was not one of them. Benny the Jet was a fighter. Joe Lewis. Bill Wallace. You have to do mental gymnastics to vault someone who had the opportunity to do something but didn’t over people who actually did.
Then why did Chuck become his student ? Joe Lewis too. Sure Chuck could hurt Bruce, if Bruce just stood there. Bruce was too fast and could be elusive using his footwork. Wouldn't have been easy to land a good shot on Lee. Also remember what Jim Kelly said " No one could touch him."
And what do you think would happen if Bruce hit or kicked Chuck ? He would get seriously hurt too, LOL. He had tremendous power especially for a guy his size.
You can be good at teaching, but you dont need to be good at fighting just because of that.
Chuck was always jealous of Bruce because he knew that he could never beat him let alone no one could beat him and still to this day no one could beat him. Also no one coulf even hit him. He was deadly fast. Supposedly they really did fight it's somewhere on UA-cam and Bruce Lee beat him in like 2 seconds.
Are you seriously saying that a real fight between Bruce and Chuck is here on You Tube ?
“Control” is a euphemism for not exchanging contact. It doesn’t represent virtue, it represents a failure to engage.
He couldn't remember the year . Early 70's he said . Jeesh, Lee went back to HK in 1971 .
Have u seen chuck back spin kick it's slow as hell
No it wasnt.
Chuck Norris slow? He could turn off the light and be in bed before the room got dark.
He’s slow with everything he does. It’s like watching paint dry. The guy is nothing more than a glorified point karate “champion”
For the camera it has to be slow. In reality Korean martial artists kick very fast. That is the styles strength.
This all a lie chuck came after steve McQueen
he became an actor after Steve McQueen, Norris taught many celebrities. Chuck Norris joined the U.S. Air Force@18 in 1958. While stationed at the Osan Air Base in South Korea, he began studying martial arts. He left the service in 1962, and started working as a karate instructor. He had over 15 schools in the 60's.
Chuck would beaten lee
There is an interview out there where someone asks Chuck if he ever fought Bruce and Chuck Norris him self said that “No” they never fought.
Bruce is not only the father of MMA but also Bodybuilding, Arnold spoke highly of the man
You’re nuts…there have been great bodybuilders around before Bruce Lee was born.
@@westyraviz yeah alright 🤣😂🤣
I see the guy was being kind about Bruce, but he gave enough hints that if they fought for real Chuck would have beaten Lee. This confirms what Jeff Smith told me, that both Chuck Norris and Bob Wall beat Lee in sparring, and Jeff knew all of them well, and Joe Lewis told me privately (never in public as he didn't want the hate mail) that there's no way Bruce would have beaten him.
Well, Joe was a heavyweight . No 135 lbs HUMAN BEING would have beat Joe . Joe found out Mike Stone taking lessons from Lee and showed some new moves .
@@joeygonzo
He thought Lees might be a way into films
There's no way that Chuck Norris could ever beat Bruce Lee. I have respect for both martial artists but Chuck Norris couldn't hold a candle to Bruce Lee. In fact he learned a lot from the great Bruce Lee. Other martial artists that were in Bruce's time said that Bruce unmatched, that he was the best. Those that claim to have ever beaten Bruce, was not man enough to even insinuate that they have beaten him. They waited until he was dead to make the claim. Bruce was the best.
The fighters of today from top Muay Thai, kickboxing and MMA promotions are light years ahead of the American point fighters from the 1960s. The best lb for lb stand up fighter (with punches and kicks) to ever live is arguably Samart Payakaroon. He was four time Lumpinee Stadium Muay Thai champion and professional boxer who won the WBC Super Bantamweight title. He fought in the 1980s and 1990s.
WTF has your post got to do with THIS post? WTF mentioned Muay Thai or fighters of today?
How could chuck norris beat Bruce Lee and he couldn’t even last for 10 seconds with rickson Gracie I was a big Bruce Lee fan and I must admit till this day chuck is in great shape and a great martial artist but I seriously doubt that chuck could have beat Bruce
Steven Seagal: Don't forget about me, I sparred with Bruce Lee and both of us couldn't hit each other. I can't remember what year it occurred. But he did say that some day I would become a great Sensei.

Best tanks to do was perfected along with his footwork if you read his book back in the seventies and I practice with that book for a while I couldn't believe the power that you're a get from the step punch step through punch lunch punches you covered the different types of fighting caught us a punch cardas you would learn how to use your footwork along with the kicks with the essential part of what's close in the cap so a lot of fighters they know how to fight and they know all the moves but close in the cap and keep them distancing from your opponent is the most important aspect of all how fast you are in your ability to close that Gap so it doesn't really matter whether the guys a great kicker puncher or a great fighter if he doesn't have the ability to close the gap as fast as you can if you can move away and distance yourself from a good fighter that really is the key footwork in a line because they almost anybody can just throw a real powerful punch in what she steps in it's like you hit a tennis ball I mean anybody's capable of just ripping the cover off that ball if you can step into that ball and really get your weight behind that it's more agility quickness and speed

What people should appreciate BL is his contributions to MMA.
Back in those days, everyone practise their own style and stuck to it, thinking no other styles were better and it's absolutely blasphemous to learn other styles.
BL broke that traditional thinking, he believed that every style has their advantages and disadvantages, hence the famous quote:"take whatever is useful and reject whatever is useless."
This philosophy brought about many criticisms in those days and people actually send him death threats and challenges, things actually got worse when he even chose to teach any race, white, yellow, black doesn't matter.
Fighting techniques are always gonna improve over time, and you can't compare today's techniques against people from half a century ago can you?
Without a doubt, BL kinda laid a foundation for MMA fighters today. If some of the all time greats like Anderson Silva idolised and adopted BL fighting philosophies, what are we keyboard warriors arguing about?
As Chuck Norris’ son, I can confirm this
What can you confirm, Dakota? We all know that your dad trained with Bruce Lee for 2 or 3 years. But what it´s more interesting that your step-brother Mike Norris told Alex Jones(the video is here on youtube) that Bruce Lee would have had no chance against your dad in a real fight at the time. He can only come to that conclusion if your dad told him that, right? By the way, Gene LeBell also said in the Bruce Lee documentary "Iam Bruce Lee" that he would put all his money on your dad in a real fight against Bruce Lee. The whole documentary was on youtube but last time there were only small clips online.
Bruce Lee was an actor while Chuck Norris was a real fighter, though he only fought on points because full contact karate wasn´t around when Chuck was fighting.
Again Bruce Lee was not just an actor he was more then an actor ip man taught him wing chun Bruce Lee taught celebrities he had a martial artist school he had students he taught his wife and son martial arts i know in my heart true martial artist he really was chuck norris workout with Bruce Lee for 2 or 3 years and I know he even knows Bruce Lee was a martial artist Bob wall give Bruce Lee his respect one question why do people wait for someone to die to talk negative about them who ever wanted to know who the late great little dragon was all they had to do was asked him i believe they knew better they knew what time it was bob Wall knows it and so does chuck norris even Jim Kelly said it best they all know most of all the lord knows everything how and when it all happen if the world can lie about our king in heaven then why wouldn't they lie about Bruce Lee he was faster and powerful more then any of them no disrespect to chuck norris he is a real martial artist as well if people want to really know something about Bruce Lee if he was just an actor asked the people who was around him like his wife his students and some of the celebrities they knew and know the truth rest in peace master Bruce lee 🙏 1940 1973 I love you man and I don't care what the world say or think I know a real martial artist when I see one 💥💯💫💦👊✌👍

Chuck Norris was not a real fighter. Even MMA competitions are not exactly real fighting. A real fight does not have a referee and rules. Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier fought in the UFC under MMA rules. Jon Jones won both times, even though the 2nd win was later vacated. Those competitive fights that we watched on television between those two is not the same fight that would occur if they both crossed paths in a dark alley. In a real fight, anything goes. Maybe Chuck Norris has been in a real street fight. I think Bruce Lee had been in a couple. People should not use sparring, martial arts competitions, UFC, etc to judge who a better fighter is. From my experience, I’ve found that the individual usually left standing is the person that is more ruthless and vicious. It’s like fighting a vicious pit bull or other wild animal. Those animals don’t know martial arts but they’ll tear a MMA fighter to pieces. I’ve always suspected that this is why Bruce Lee did not do competitions and why he mentioned to one expert that he’d bite him if he were held down (or something like that). There was a martial arts school I wanted to join when I was younger and I remember the instructor making it known to me that they were not in it for competitions, that they were the real deal and what you learned there was practical stuff you’d use in real life situations. Unless Bruce and Chuck actually fought one another for real, it is useless to keep questioning who would win between them. And people have to remember that though they were both born in the same year, Chuck Norris has now lived almost 50 years longer than Bruce Lee. Chuck has had decades longer to refine and perfect his skill. So be mindful of which Chuck Norris you’re comparing to Bruce Lee.
@@westyraviz I agree with you 💯
A lot can happen in 2 years of training, a lot of losses and wins
Norris had a ''super fast spinning back kick''?...
The man had obvious flexibility problems at head-high kicks ...

Can't remember the year, but was a young kid, and totally remembered the reference to them fighting? And vivid memories of that. But dunno what year...
Bruce Lee.
Jimmy Wang Yu was a Taiwanese actor, film director, producer, and screenwriter. Wang rose to fame in 1967 with his starring role in One-Armed Swordsman, a martial arts film produced by the Shaw Brothers Studio, and The Chinese Boxer
One guy has a professional fight record and the other guy only had anecdotal evidence and legends of fighting.
Are you saying that Bill Gates is no business man as he's just a university drop out? What proof of fight record do you need? Listen to the world champions and master talking about Bruce; Bruce sparred with word champions not once or twice but systematically over the years, summarized the essence and philosophy of fighting (can this be done without first-hand experience?). Bruce grew up as a street fighter, and that's why he learnt Wing Chun - close combat fighting style.
Winning the Respect and Friendship afterward with all these World Champs, Grandmasters and Masters are on the much Superior Level !
It’s funny how when Bruce was alive, no one had the balls to stand up and confront him and here we have everyone coming out of the woodwork trying to defame the guy!
So I’m not buying this entire story! There’s a lot of creationism going on to fit this guys own agenda or narrative and you can see it in the interview and every time he’s asked a question!
If you compare Bruce’s techniques and particular execution compared to Chucks movements it’s like chalk and cheese! You can see the amount of time that Bruce put into his training and the self perfection he achieved which is way beyond and by far superior than like the likes of Chuck, Labelle, etc…
Great video great history great legends
