What if Bruce Lee Competed in the UFC

- The age-old question. Ask anyone who is remotely interested in martial arts, especially UFC champions themselves and they will list above all others Bruce Lee as their main inspiration. And as a personal role model of mine; let me shed some light on what I think he would have been like if he was born today.
I don't think anyone else had the discipline that he possessed...He really took it to the next level.
Not just to the next level but he is the league of his own
They don't allow killing
Final Form Dan lol. yeah
didnt he die of a freak allergic reaction to like aspirin
Final Form Dan how did swag Kage bring you here
Final Form Dan 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
bruce would be heavily restricted
Bruce Lee was a philosopher and obsessed with being the most complete martial artist he could be. I believe he would maybe dismiss the UFC at first, but eventually he would have the desire to compete. And then the sport would be on the next level.
He told you that?
It would literally be some Mortal Kombat Shit and I see Bruce lee as Johnny Cage. "Oh yeah"
@nai nai in fact, he fought almost all of his adolescence, in street fights, that's why he moved to the USA.
yea no wonder he never fought professionally...there's no record, the guy was an actor, you should watch the old Shaw Brothers Kung Fu
movies from the 80's, you would think twice about calling bruce great.
David Westhoff the man fought in hella tournaments. What are you talking about
I think his speed and power would overwhelm a lot of ufc fighters because they are fast but not like Bruce Lee was
It would be epic to see bruce lee at ufc but i think he would not be so invincible as we think but his physique is awesome and i dont think any ufc fighter can land a kick faster than bruce. I am sure bruce would learn ground games also as we see him using judo moves in his movies and he likes to practice other styles as well. he would have hard times but i think he would be champ because if you are as strong as bruce lee and fast as bruce lee you can ko people with kicks and punches. And his punches are devastating. As we can see his one inch punch that powerful we can assume that he can hit like heavyweights. Imagine a guy that is fast as flyweights and hit like a heavyweights. And in ufc he will have to face only his weight class so i can say that he will dominate his weight class like aldo and mcgregor did with their ko power .and many people may say him fake but he is being praised by many world karate champions of that era who saw him like joe lewis, mike stone and chuck norris. And his speed, world records, strength and physique tells us easily that he could be very dangerous fighter in ufc. But i think bruce would be in serious trouble if he dont learn ground games before going to ufc. But after he masters ground games i dont see anything stopping bruce lee in his weight class.
@@parasstone8414 Bruce Lee is god of mma,say whatever you want but that man is to much fast and that's it
@@parasstone8414 bruce les wasnt just good at fighting, he was a literal genius who knew his body and would kill anyone
@Zeek Banistor he never fought alot of people because he knew he could literally kill them and that wasnt what he was fighting for, he showed what a real man was like by knowing that he was above the skill level of others and still not fighting, there is video proof of his insane speed and power aswell as technique
@Zeek Banistor yes, completely bypass half of my reply and go back to your same incompetent argument and point
legends are not meant to compare .
respect bruce lee
Your "legend" isn't as good as you think.
maxdrags3 really u know there is a quote "haters will hate and fuckers will fuck"
he still beat your fav fighters ass and your dads ass
Johnson Tang Ok kid, believe the lies you want...
maxdrags3 no.he is alot better.oh dont tell me you compete in martial arts and you could go the distance with bruce lee.😂😂.i think knot.
I can't believe there are people out there that doubt this man's abilities.
Mostly UFC fanboys.
I can't believe that there are fanboys who can't accept the truth.
He was great and worthy of being a legend. That is the truth. There is no other way to look at it unless you're in denial, jealous, or insane.
maxdrags3 So much of a legend that you don't like him and still have to talk about him 40 years after his death
Mr E Because he isn't the legend you think he was.
He was in UFC , he was just too fast we didn't see him
Dominus Reign
I slow down the camera with a lot of frames
I saw a blur
he'd be killed....tiny guy
he was too fast really fast whatever we see on the video is it been slow down or he did not strike that fast so people can see it film companies still hiding the real videos for some reason !!! my teacher trainer teach the head of KGB and GRU in old Soviet union and they were talking about Bruce Lee was really high high level of knowledge intelligence and speed !
😆😆😅
He was not so OP everybody claims he was, total BS
Everyone can look good in a movie
everyone talking about different things on how bruce would win or loss I just like him for who he is
yep just another great ACTOR!!! NOT A FIGHTER HE WAS A CHICKEN
@@stacystacksbeats999 In what respect ? He taught the art of fighting without fighting . You think he would even contemplate getting into the octagon with these egotistical , self hyped big mouths ? They are not his equal either intellectually , spiritually or equal in technical ability . MMA fighters train to win mma matches . Bruce Lee did not learn martial arts to fight , rather the art and philosophy of fighting !! Now show some fucking respect !!
@@darrenagnew7098 well said Bruce Lee was the man who had real people and famous people come to him to be trained. Names like Joe Lewis, Chuck Norris, and they are title holding kickboxers and they weren't hype they like Bruce Lee were the real deal and that's just a couple names I could go on with more but no need to. I don't know if he would have competed or not but he would have been involved one way or another to add to the MMA!! He truly was the best!!!
@@stacystacksbeats999 you fucking kid get the fuck outta here
@@stacystacksbeats999 I know pro fighters are. but what is Bruce Lee.
McGregor adopted his style from Bruce Lee. He even said "If he competed, I have no doubt he'd be UFC champion".
I'll give you a pass since you made this before Conor got mauled by Khabib
@@aaronscott4984 doesn't mean anything for Bruce... just because a "student" couldn't. Bruce would have mauled whoever stood before him.
@@MrJerryluckey okay but khabib has arguably never even lost a round in the UFC so his legacy as a FIGHTER is levels beyond Bruce Lee because Bruce Lee wasn’t a true fighter he just trained like one
@@umarc4248 This is only called speaking before knowing anything,Bruce lee was a believer of shaolin rules even though he did not train there,shaolin rules say that’ a true champion never needs to prove himself until it is to do justice for a living creature,not to earn any laurels ‘, so I think now u understood ,I know this because my grandfather met Bruce lee twice and even enquired about him in the shaolin temple as well as his master
@@bollywoodblockbusters1582 brother I am not speaking before knowing anything. I have read the book warrior within: Philosophies of bruce lee. His philosophies are interesting, but you can't use his philosophies, no matter how respectful they are, to claim him superior as a fighter than a battle tested warrior like khabib nurmagomedov. Khabib has earned his name as one of the best fighters by dominating his opponents. Perhaps bruce lee was a fighter who could've held more regard than khabib if he showed his skills, but you can not use mere speculation to justify putting a man over someone who has proven his strength In the martial art. It is like calling Usain Bolt not the fastest man in the world because there may be someone out there in this large world with superior running capability, but they never chose to run professionally and have now passed away. You can't use speculation over proof brother. I respect bruce lee but you have to be logical and fair to the real fighters. It is simple. Fighters fight. Philosophers think and develop philosophy. the fact that bruce lee prioritized his philosophical ideals to not fight every opponent proves he was a philosopher before a fighter.
Bruce Lee. I will remember you !

bruce lee would kill all the ufc fighters hes too quick
@@sayedrohani2457 I would just one minute and he knocked out
@@sayedrohani2457 stop, Bruce lee would get trashed
If Bruce Lee was still alive he would be an announcer for UFC right next to Joe Rogan.
He would be president of UFC
No! He might be more of a trainer like Greg Jackson, or a bigger businessman and MMA might have taken an entirely different course. Bjj would not be this popular, he would have already mixed up grappling and standup fights by the early 80s under Jeet Kune do. And instead of zuffa LLC, there might be Bruce Venture LLC.
I think all the Joe Rogan comments got into your head. 😀
JOE ROGAN Dismissed BL as a fighter
he would be world champion for decades lol. tyson couldn't even beat him. He's faster than tyson and just as strong. he could punch you once and you'd die
That would be pretty awesome.

Bruce Lee with a ground game is scary as fuck.
leslucas Bruce did have ground game. He picked up grappling from Gene LeBell and Filipino ground work as well. It just didn't look so good in the movies so we didn't get to see much of it.
he had a ground game, he trained with Gene Lebell
that was dragon the bruce lee story, that was Jason scott lee you idiot, not bruce
Alvaro Buendia you're full of shit. You're telling me Judo isn't on that list? And Bruce trained with Gene Lebell. Does Judo Gene not have ground game? Bruce trained with martial artists from multiple backgrounds. He already had phenomenal striking, yet he continued to learn more from arts like boxing.
You can doubt his legitimacy as a real fighter. That's fine as there is no real proof. But keep in mind, I also have no footage of street fights I've been in. That doesn't mean I can't fight worth a damn just because I have no proof. But I get it, it's difficult to believe someone when there is a lack of evidence.
However, we have ample evidence of Bruce's training and his dedication to martial arts. Imagine if Bruce was alive and in his prime today. He would undoubtedly be learning everything you see in the MMA world. And if he chose to fight in it, since we have so much evidence of his speed, form, and power... I think it's fair to say he would have done pretty damn well in his weight class. I'm not saying he would be undefeated, but at minimum he would have been a great fighter.

Yea the point is, Bruce Lee used Martial Arts as a way of life. A philosophy so to speak. I am not trying to down play people in the UFC or any MMA, but I believe in reality they fight for waaaay different reasons than Bruce Lee.
Honestly, even if Bruce Lee knew he could injure his opponents somehow, he still would not go into competition because it just wasn't his way of life. He could have, but it wasn't HIM.
I think you're right, and I think if he were still alive he would likely take to training professional fighters.
Lee Everett very believable
Facts 100
Lee Everett Exactly!
Bruce Lee loved fighting he like challenging himself with other fighters
He made mma
Slazer418 YT is this a joke?
*Zeke* no I didn't mean he made it fully but he was the first one to really bring out the fact that there should be no styles only what you feel is best for you so he did different martial arts and made he's own mma jet condo and he was the only person really to do that sorta stuff
No he didn't there were tons of styles out 40 50 years that incorparted 3 to 4 styles in there fighting vale tudo barjuitsu not to mention all the different variations of Okinawa karate etc he didn't event MMA because mixed martial arts where around he just was a mainstream person who got to much credit for things without proff I mean to say he's the founder of MMA is the most stupid thing ever
This is false.
Bruce Lee is the first 'big name' martial artist to adopt multiple styles into one.
Anyfighter nOw or then to fight him, they would have fear in their heart..Believe that!!
okay let me get this right! He fought pro fighters, And he made movies with cameras that the whole world went to see. However there is no video footage of these so called fights with pro fighters. bra youve been brainwashed youve been had by another movie director and with another tv episode. Believe me if that were true every news station would have been there to cover it... lol Bruce fooled millions of people.
Bruce lee would get his ass kicked in the UFC
@@stacystacksbeats999 kiddo get a fucking life grow up
@@stacystacksbeats999 DAMN YOU ARE AN UNEDUCATED DUMB FUCK. Go do some of your own RESEARCH and then maybe it will stop the pure Stupid that is pouring out of your mouth. He wanted FULL CONTACT FIGHTS but back then No One was Willing and the laws in place would have Never allowed it. He Said No Rules, no gear and Everything goes. He is the Only man that the film makers asked him to slow down his movements because the cameras could not pick them up, even when they tried to slow the shots down he still moved so fast it appeared like just a blur. And those Are Facts, Documented and proven Authentic. If a 138 lb man could generate enough force from just 6 inches away that scientest and many well respected Doctors verified that his 6 inch punch to the solerplex or even areas of the chest had enough force to stop the persons HEART. Read a little more before you Let Stupid Spill Out.
Also there is a video of him fighting in a Mixed Martial Arts Match(I Just Watched It) and is known today as the Birth Of the UFC! But back then the rules made opponents wear heavy protective gear, and he hated it.
@@jakedooley7530 Bro go sit in a time out you are to STUPID to Speak!
Excellent video and well documented facts about Bruce. Glad to know there are some people out there who know and tell the truth about Bruce Lee.
Thanks : )
LoneWanderer my friend he said "sadly at the time of this recording Muhammad Ali has died..." meaning June 06, 2016 the upload date of the video, three days after Ali passed last year 03 June 2016. Not before Bruce Lee please listen again
He didn't invent the concept of MMA there were plenty off styles and people who talked about mixing martial arts the closest thing to modern day MMA back in the day which was Vale Tudo and it litterly uses Muay Thai capoeria Brizilian jujitsu jujitsu Savage wrestling boxing I mean if you read his stuff you'd know where he got his ideas fro
There has never been a martial artist in history with Bruce Lee's ability and we will never see another one. We have witnessed martial artist with spectacular skills like Jet Li, Chuck Norris and the Gracie's but none of them even comes close to Bruce . The true GOAT !!
The swiftness of Bruce Lee was amazing he is so trained he is a LEGEND i wish he was still alive i wanna hug him and say he us the best martial artist ever and he is no one can denie it :)
he practiced martial arts since he was a child, he just happened to make his fortune by working in the movies due to his exceptional skills but that doesn't makes him just a on screen fighter.....how dumb can people be
Yes, apparently technology makes people dumber
Finally, someone who has a brain!
You sound so rediculouse Just another fan boy. 👍👍👍👍. Bruce lee was impressive in his movies for that era. But how can you rate a fighter who you have never seen in an actual fight ???? Can you imagine if people did that today with any sport 😂😂
What you say makes absolutely no sense at all and you got 3 other idiots following the leader 😹😹😹.
How would we know if Tyson was a beast. Or Muhammad Ali was the greatest.? Of course watching them in actual action.
Can the person who taught Serena William how to play tennis actually beat her in a game? Of course not. The guy who trains Tyson do you think he would beat Tyson in a match ???? Of course not. I fact those poele didn’t compete. They just trained.
That’s what Bruce lee was . A philosopher and a teacher. I’ll give him that much.
He spoke a bunch of Chinese secret bullshit that would not work in the fight game then or now.
I love watching these so called Chinese master of kung fu getting thier asses kicked all over social media by Mma fighter. Boxers and ufc fighters. That wing chun bullshit Bruce lee learned as a kid . Might work against another wing chun fighter. But not against boxers and mma fighters.
Bruce lee was just an actor and a great show man. That’s it. He’s not a fighter. He never was. Unless your counting fights he has as a kid. We all did that.
Bruce didn’t fight because he know deep in his head that he was not that good. He just talked a good game and knew how to work the Americans and made tons of money off of his bullshit. He had a great hustle and the suckers where the fanboys. 😂😂😂😂. Gullibles.
Eddie Berrios Bruce lee did have a fight he was blind folded and used only 1 hand and won, we did not see his full strength but the fact he lit matches using nunchucks and the matches was being thrown: he had the best focus every fighter respects him and copy’s his why of life he earned the respect of everyone so why can’t you respect him he knew every fighting style from kung fu to jujitsu he master all so tell me who can possibly do all that
Doctor7681 you saying Bruce lee fighting was fake?
Bruce lee could punch at a speed of .21 seconds. I would LOOOOOVVVEEE to see an MMA fighter try to block it.
In a real fight, people don't stand there and let you punch them.
Many people can punch like that when there is nobody punching back.
Joker...nope the record is held by a little girl and its much faster than Bruce. Her time is .125 which is alot faster.
Joker because there was no one at the time to take the record you idiot
You gave a number that is slower than the little girl who actually has the world record, its not even relevant anyway, little girl isnt a fighter and Bruce wasnt a proven fighter either no matter how fast he was.
bruce lee in ufc would hv been boring
fights end in seconds with deaths ofcourse
LOL
True lol
Correct answer, Wingchun only has several death punches, pure science..
lol
Not true, Bruce lee would be a mediocre fighter if that in the ufc
Bruce Lee in the UFC woulda been the most incredible thing ever. Bruce was practicing Bjj towards teh end of his career, he was way ahead of his time, his stand up and gas tank were top-notch his accuracy and strike power is impeccable, he would have been something truly special.
BJJ? He was practicing judo
he was practicing BJJ yes, Judo aswell as he was a master in in Japaneese jiu jitsu
Bruce never heard of BJJ.
The fundamentals are the same. Bjj derived from jiu jitsu and judo.
Based on what evidence? Who did he fight to show all that?
Bruce Lee was so fast that when he ran he could see his back.... damn, it's Chuck Norris joke
"Not many know he was a badass in real life." Not many know? Are you KIDDING me dude?!
He is right
@jpssteveshanahan9572 Jim Kelly came along late in Bruces life and never saw anything and couldnt name anyone or give any details..."Trust me" doesnt fly.
First of all, Bruce already fought liek todays fighters 50 years earlier... if he was here he would already be 50 years ahead of UFC.. ufc is not in his league this guy was an artist in every way.
These ufc fighter only talk about money, this and that..
Bruce Lee aimed to master the mind, body and spirit liek a true martial arts warrior.
Plus he dident belive in Martial art as a sport, he trained for real streeet fight he even trained all kind of combats, bodily and with real weapons.
How can anybody compare Bruce to Ufc fighters.
They all look up to him, Bruce is greatest influencer if u can use that ''word''.
Im glad he is not here, because this day and age is just a joke.
Kawa Rezayi so much ignorant disrespect towards the dozens of hard working individuals sacrificing their bodies for the craft they love
you are disrespecting the mixed martial artist that dedicate their life energy into martial arts. not all of them are there for money some are there because they love martial arts and fighting
Yeah bruce lee is a glorified body builder if he was to come across modern fighters or hell Chuck Norris in his prime he would legit lose
BotherMeSilly i don't even think so even bruce studied grappling in his arsenal mentioned in the Tao of Jeet Kune Do, he even lessened the use of trapping range if necessary and used a lot of elements from Boxing, Fencing, And other arts that comprehend the principles while his Art directly keeps the center line protected at all times and waits for his opponent to attack or move so that he can reach them in long distances, think about it why did bruce nearly abandoned Wing Chun and almost all its roots? Its cause of too much limitations and restrictions from moving freely hence expressing him self through combat form, theres one video that bruce had punching what looks like to me is around 80-180 lbs well the man is good but I'm not even gonna justify the way he punches cause even bruce himself will loose in the UFC, not saying that he could completely destroy them considering his only around 180 lbs more or less he could punch as hard as for his size saying he could put up a decent fight just saying
Kawa Rezayi god you’re stupid too smh
00:28 Jackie Chan is the stuntman flying through the window.
''your blow is meant to be felt before seen'',that was his speed,blinding speed,ask anyone that knew him,chained blue lightening
Folks let's stick to reality. Bruce Lee was a man of combat not competition. If he fought with any MMA fighter, he would jab their eyes, kick their balls, strike their throat, and yes even bite them. He would use lethal force. He created a system of no rules. Therefore, we shouldn't try to compare him to the MMA fighters. Totally different reasons for fighting.
this
I totally agree he wouldn't be allowed to compete because he would injure so many people.
Yea, and Bruce Lee is the only person who could employ those techniques. There no way Tony Ferguson knows how to eye poke, bite, and groin strike.....
Bruce Lee was an ACTOR.
THE STUDIO Could still beat their ass, without those rules
THE STUDIO so you are saying Bruce is too retarded to understand what rules are.
Guys comparing MMA and UFC to what Bruce Lee did is stupid. They fight for the money and such while Bruce did it as his lifestyle, it was his way of living. We will never know how it would be if he competed but srsly comparing these totally different forms is just plain stupid. MMA and UFC have Rules and such whereas Bruce created a field with no rules at all.
I read Bruce's recent biography: 'Bruce Lee, A Life'(2018). When Bruce first came to the U.S,(he was born here when his dad was touring w/ a Chinese performing group but left when 2 years old to Hong Kong, and came back to go college in Seattle where he met Linda Lee), He first was in San Francisco basically working as a bus boy at a Chinese restaurant there owned by his father's friend. He lived in a single room above the restaurant and HATED it. He eventually started teaching Gung Fu. A few guys that eventually signed up for lessons,(forgetting the names, but some are very well known, o.k. Joe Lewis for one...), were already very good at karate but had taken the watered down Americanized version. Lee was hated by many for freely sharing his direct Gung Fu knowledge to Americans. Anyway. A couple of Lee's students were at least twice his size, former college football players, a local bouncer who also knew karate and beat up people w/ ease. Guys not to be trifled with! Lee pissed them off because he would stand right in front of them and dare them to lay a single blow on him. He would stand arms at his sides only 2 or 3 steps distant. Not only could none of them lay a glove on him, he also told them to take a fighting stance and he would come at them, hit them in the face,(obviously NOT full power!), and they wouldn't be able to stop it. None of them could. And these guys were used to absolutely dominating people in fights. A couple of them never admitted it until after he died. Chuck Norris also took a few lessons from Lee and they liked each other. Chuck was obviously a cut above the previous guys I mentioned though.
Bruce didnt fight as his lifestyle. He barely fought anyone.
cuzz63 facts. Today’s wrestlers would shit kick him
@@motler7334 I think even a Muay Thai fighter would have busted him up bad.
@@cuzz63 he was a student of Ip Man and he did fight
Every one who trained with him and all the actors who knew him confirmed that Bruce Lee was the real deal.
Even the Gracie brothers.
And Chuck Norris and Bob wall.
You name it.
lol, bullshit..Joe Lewis stated Bruce was not a fighter..Chuck implied it. Gracies never met Bruce nor saw him fight/
Bruce Lee was 50+ years ahead of everyone. After watching his moves, I practiced the head lock on kids at school and let out a crazy scream... I made my own nunchuks. Those were good times when two kids can agree to meet at a specific place after school and duke it out. Good times!
5:40 you said Muhammad Ali had died by the time Bruce Lee saw the recording.... WTF?!?!
Muhammad Ali died in 2016...
and bruce died in 1973, almost 50 years ago.
Well I'll put it this way his pushups alone are legendary. To do 200 on one hand and 2 fingers or to do pushups fully extended 100 at a time most guys can't even do one. His record of 9 punches in a second will likely never be broken by someone that could hit so hard. In many opinions he was the the strongest man pound for pound in modern times. Modern MMA fighters could only kiss his boots. Any idiot aka MJW that says they could beat him due to size should learn humility because he is a student that exceeded his teacher. MJW is an actor that believes his press and choreagraphed scenes. I great martial artist no doubt but couldn't hold Mr Lee's jockstrap.
The delusion is real. LOL
dkblade27 ikr. This guy actually thinks that Bruce would’ve been a good modern day MMA fighter
people are stupid
Michael Jai white is actually a bad mo fo. Not Just a actor.
he squatted less than 200 pounds.
I want to travel back in time and meet this legend!
He'd get in trouble for decapitatating every ufc fighter
Eh
He would wreck every MMA fighter

100%
Tane Sorby BJJ is an absolute joke kid. Kung fu, wing chun, Jeet Kune Do, taekwondoe, tongbeiquan, etc. destroys BJJ. BJJ is for wanna be martial artist that couldn't handle the real ones.
wing chun probably useless in mma or any street fight..but not jeet kundo combine with bruce lee's strength
Saying Bruce Lee was just an actor is a really fucking ignorant statement.
Seriously, Bruce Lee would have killed every single UFC fighter today in their prime.
yh and artem lobov is the GOAT. lmao, you don't know what you're saying, stfu
his power an reach was compered 2 like mike tyson 220lb pro heave weight boxer and chuck and him trained with the gracies so they both would of had good bjj if they got in 2 ufc
hahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahha, Hey yeh, you're not too intelligent are you?
hahahahahahahahaahhahaahah you're hilarious man
Just so you know... Lee hit harder than heavyweight fighters (about 350 pounds force harder than Frank Bruno who was comparable to Mike Tyson). It's the speed.
Velocity contributes more to force than mass. Force = velocity * velocity * mass. So sufficient speed makes up for mass quickly.
Lee also hit so fast that you couldn't block him. And other fighters have said from personal experience lee's blows to their arms and legs were numbing and made their arms and legs less usable.
And Joe Lewis said Lee was unreadable. You couldn't predict when Lee would punch because Lee was always ready to throw a maximum force blow.
And finally, Lee's crazy fanatical training meant his endurance was also crazy high.
Lee had the respect of serious fighters who he sparred with privately. This includes boxers, black belts, and grapplers.
Lee was incredibly open to picking up the best from any technique. He was water without ego in that regard.
Max Shmelling knocked out Joe Louis because from studying footage and found a weakness.Bruce Lee would have studied his opponent and then he,d beat the shit out them.Way of the exploding fist.They should be glad he ain,t around.R.I.P.To a legend.
+Hassan Syed I haven't seen anyone in mma with the foot work or hand speed that it would take to keep up with bruce lee, I'm not gonna say he's unbeatable because we're all mortal but he was a talented fighter.
worldaiduk Network International Mohammad he wasn't a real martial artist! He didn't even fight in real tournaments! Won all his fights, yeah, in movies! Rocky won all his fights too, is Sylvester Stallone a great boxer? No!
Actually, shaolin monks have competed in MMA and Kickboxing fights. The one I remember is a shaolin monk fighting Buakaw, the Muay Thai legend. The shaolin monk literally got knocked out. Shaolin monks aren't made of steel and if they can be knocked out by people of the same weight, so can Bruce Lee.
Twan van der Donk you must have not been watching closely. In the first match Yi Long allowed buakaw to win. If you ever notice Yi Long lets the other fighter hit him in the head. He literally puts his arms down and lets himself get hit. Then there was the rematch with buakaw and Yi Long went all out and destroyed buakaw. made buakaw look amateur.
I don't see how he "destroyed" him considering there wasn't a knockout. Lowering your hands isn't "letting your opponent win", it's taunting your opponent to throw them off and/or show your resilience. It is an arrogant move and if you get knocked out from it, you weren't as resilient as you thought and you just weren't the better fighter that day.
We honestly will never know how he would do in ufc, he is amazing in his martial arts but there are some good fighters in the ufc who learned in different ways. He would rather learn techniques from the ufc fighters and improve his skills before entering the cage so that he doesn’t kill anyone. There’s no end to learning martial arts
Man his feints are so quick, it's almost no human.
If Bruce Lee competed in the UFC, he would be the best pfp by far
based on which movie?
These other martial artists that claim they could beat Bruce need to STOP they need to stop looking at the past if Bruce was still alive he would be even more advanced his past martial art is even hard for people to achieve today but imagine how advance he would have been may the dragon be with you RIP Bruce Lee
Nio vix you're delusional honestly. Bruce lee was an actor. He wasn't some demigod who would kill everyone in a fight. Realistically Bruce would be terrible in UFC. He would get taken down and mauled every single fight. You're so gullible to movies
Garrett Casteel I'm listening to the facts if you think bruce ain't badass why don't u think pro fighters like such as mcgregor dk yoo and more idolize him cause I think you're the one that's gullible cause I knew and more people knew that he was more than an actor
Garrett Casteel had u even heard of wong jack man and I don't think he's immortal cause I knew that he had limits you probably think I'm gullible cause you thought that his feats of strength was fake
Bruce lee's job was acting.. he LIFE was martial arts.. thats a fact..
Just an actor that had every martial arts champ who knew him say he was phenomenal. Take idiots like seagal who never even knew him to diss him ffs anyone who did and fought him all said he was one tough s.o.b so I guess all them lying now too?. Actor and real life fighter too. That's like saying any fighter who made a career in movies can't fight lol
I like that you mentioned, not just speed. His power was severely under-rated. In an interview with Stephen Thompson, he revealed that the late heavyweight Joe Lewis said that Bruce hit him the hardest. Imagine that from a 140lb man. There are lots of factors in a fight, but it seems the haters and even some Bruce fans sleep on Bruce's power and strength conditioning.
I do think Bruce was a extremely talented fighter but tbh some tough guy like Nate Diaz would probably box his face off.
Mate Diaz will kill Bruce lee. Very easy
@@TonyStark-rg5zm So would someone else kill Diaz in 30 years, people evolve. Lee would have quickly adapted into submissions since he took everything from other good styles.
"hE WaS aN AcToR nOt a FigHt3R"
Yes he was, it was the 70's there was no high paying UFC or MMA back then, it was too brutal for Americans back then to be a live show. Only way to become rich was movies.
Yet all the best pros in the world say he was legit... funny how key board warriors say he wasn’t.
see all the interviews of his friends or people who had worked with him//////he as a real fighter that's he was offered for movies,,,,,he had more real fights....but not in camera. footage....
He was way more than a actor. He was a master martial artist in it's pure form. His mere obsession with martial arts made him a phenomenal fighter
Let's be realistic, he would get his ass kicked in seconds.
Guys, as a 51 year old dude who grew up in awe of this man, what made him exceptional compared to fighters today is that he was EXCELLENT in all forms of martial arts not just one. Say you are a champion Jujitsu fighter. He would quickly adjust to your fighting style and beat you at it
the way of intercepting fist......nuff said
guess u guys dont watch any chinese documentary about bruce lee
this is some random fact about him
bruce lee have only about 2.4% fat
bruce lee train his even when he is eating (according to his friend , steve lee)
bruce lee punch is almost equal to a bullet speed of a pistol
bruce lee can hold 2 man (about 140 pounds ) at the same time easily (according to his friend , steve lee)
bruce lee open a tin by using his finger (according to his friend , steve lee)
bruce lee kicks is not as fancy as u c in the movie , in the movie they actually use stand-in for kicking scene
bruce leecan punch 400 pounds and kick about 1600 pounds force
bruce lee can punch 9 times in 1 sec and kick 6 times in 1 sec
have fun (sry for my broken english)
Get the hell out of here no way!!!!
So people say there is no proof of Bruce ever winning or actually fighting ya da ya da
But if you can't find proof, that doesnt mean it isn't true, Bruce Lee in fact may be able to take down Mma and ufc fighters, simple as that, stop getting fucking butt hurt cause a legend kicks your favorite Mma or ufc fighter😍
SakeIsHere he would get shit kicked by a 300 pound wrestler so easily. It’s basic logic.
@@motler7334 weight doesn’t matter in martial arts,the force u r producing is important,Bruce lee who is just 175 pound could produce a maximum force in his one inch punch which anyone till this date did not or even a 700 pounder did not
He hasn't kicked anyone's favourite MMA or UFC fighter. wtf are you talking about ??
Mr. Gregory Cappitte, you feel the water sir, please continue to share your wisdom please stay on point many need your thoughts... Thank you
Did he say enter the dragon was bad? I liked that movie haha
That movie had the best fight scene in the whole of the action film industry all over the world. The fight scene with the guards was so unique and had a deeper meaning than everyone thought.
There isn't a fight in UFC that wouldn't be over in less than 20 seconds against Bruce in the UFC
You forgot the legend who can destroy him, Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Bruce Lee was ahead of mma
You are being duped by Hollywood. He was behind the curve when he was active, let alone modern mma. He never had a pro fight in his life and barely knew basics about wrestling, bjj/judo, kickboxing.
At his time he was ahead if he still alive he would be more ahead then any mma fighters
MugenDBZGTS that's completely false.
MugenDBZGTS fucking child
You act like a child first
I just love Bruce so much I’ll watch any and everything on him that pops up!! Thx for the vid bro
I don't believe Bruce Lee would have even liked UFC matches and they way they do things. He's a pioneer in fighting. I believe he would be too hardcore for UFC. UFC is okay... but Bruce wouldn't waste time with it.
Ufc is hardcore af, anyway even if he were to be in the ufc he would lose MOST matches, he doesn’t hav any grappling and ground fighter experience, so he would hav to take up bjj and/or wrestling otherwise ufc fighters, like khabib nurmagomedov, would exploit his lack of ground fighting and win by ground fighting
Jon-Mark W lmaooo you’re so stupid
One Angry Gamer you’re dumb asf
@One Angry Gamer
You don't know what you are talking about Bruce was not a ground fighter Jeet Kwon Do he added some submissions but it is a far cry from Wrestling. The fact is nobody considered wrestlers to be a threat until MMA was invented when Olympian Mark Coleman came to UFC and dominated every style it was a huge wake up call that wrestlers could control the tempo and where the fights took place. I'm a huge Lee fan but even he wouldn't of stopped a 250lb Olympic Freestyle wrestler from taking him to the ground and pounding him bloody
Most hyped man ever. He was an artist first and foremost.
Some fanatic clowns even bring up Ali vs Lee and question who would win!!
Ali, a 225 pound heavyweight, skilled and actual fighter, would destroy Bruce Lee.
And even Mike Tyson!! Come on!
Tyson might have killed him. Bruce Lee, weighing in at 135 pounds against a heavyweight world champion Mike Tyson 220 pounds.... Poor chinese.
You fanatics must come back to reality.
In UFC he would not have had the time to trick and jump around. He would be taken to the ground and beaten.
I see this post is 2 years ago but correct ..Tyson would have annihilated Bruce In a ring
Ali is a weakling for Bruce. He is so weak that his actual punching power is equivalent to that of Bruce's one inch punch power. Bruce would annihilate Ali. The same goes for Tyson. He will get destroyed in 10 seconds
@@phoenixj1299 lol, yeah. And he will fly back to China and kick all of their asses before Sunday.
0:29 That's Jackie Chan flying. :P
Thank you! First person who gets it when it comes to Bruce Lee.
The cold hard truth is that to become an elite fighter you have to fight other good fighters, which Bruce didn't. So its extremely likely that Bruce couldn't hold his own against any elite fighter.
I like Bruce Lee but I can't imagine a fight between him and a decent UFC guy being too different to those videos showing kungfu masters getting destroyed by random MMA guys.
Naru Kami You do know he has fought Chuck Norris off cam? Even Mike Tyson credited him.
OMG Finally someone who is not delusional
Your like the guys who said Ichiro and Ohtani wouldn't hit in MLB..
Lol..😂😂😊😊😊😊
@@kilomaster Mike Tyson was like 2 when Bruce died tf you talking about lmao
@@kilomaster There is no evidence Bruce and Chuck ever fought. stop talking fanboy shit
"What if bruce lee went to the ufc"
Me" he whould be in the ufc"
Ever wonder who's faster than Floyd mayweaher......duh fuckin Bruce lee
On what evidence is this claim based and so what? A mosquito is faster than a human.
Plenty of fighters have been faster than Mayweather
Mike Tyson is faster than floyd
Still fuckin no way mike Tyson is faster than mayweather
Tyson's hooks and head movement was probably on par with mayweather with out a doubt... Now on to the Bruce Lee mma.. Bruce Lee as strong as he was and as fast he was then.. Put him in this time with how training is done and. Nutrition and how they break down so many moves now Bruce Lee would probably gone on as the only undefeated fighter in the world in mixed martial arts..and retired that way..
any1 who thinks he could not compete in the ufc has no clue of martial arts. If this man had the motiviation (well he is dead so he cant have it) to compete in mma he would have found his own way to compete on the highest levels in mma since this man was an absolute genius he is like the einstein of martial arts. you think he wouldnt have the ability to adapt to the mma style? thats nonsense man.
Conor mcgregor:
*Pulls up middle finger*
Fusion Gamez he would shit kick Bruce lee
@@motler7334 You don't know the true potential of Bruce Lee lmfao. Bruce can drop kick them easily.
Fusion Gamez lol bro just cuz he’s famous for wat he did . Doesn’t mean he will defeat him. Connor will destroy Bruce. Don’t get me wrong Bruce lee is a badass but he wouldn’t hang in ground game
@@beastlyjoke8379 dude Bruce might have had a really really bad chin
Justin Crespo bruce lee too fast for conor and floyd mayweathwr beat him
He would beat anybody
x_Johnny_ Glo, Bruce Lee will beat anybody? That is the illusion he projected on screen and he was very great at doing that. There is no such thing as a person being capable of having anyone beat. By the way, Bruce Lee was not even a proven fighter, that's a fact.
Sunday Aito he said 'would' not will lol
Sunday Aito, Bruce Lee was not a proven fighter as you said but that is only because he did not compete in karate tournaments he was more interested in finding a better way to improve himself and did not believe in colored belts and one can not compete without color belts that is a fact
Sunday Aito, as a matter of fact he was always fighting proven fighters of high rankings off the mat and went undefeated in that manner
Jerry Gutierrez, what better way to improve one self than to compete in a tournament to find out how good one is? Bruce Lee should have done this regardless of what other ways he was looking to improve. Only way of knowing how good a fighter is, is to prove it either in a tournament or in an actual fight. Bruce Lee is not immune from this universal law. Again, Bruce Lee is not a proven fighter.
Bruce Lee would be one of the best strikers in the ufc but would get starched on the ground if he were to go up against Khabib or even Covington
The prblem would be he would nvr be on the ground
Indeed, we don't know much about his ground game. He's got a good understanding of how body mechanics work so I'm sure he'd be able to learn quickly. With his explosive speed and power, I'm sure if you managed to get him on the ground, he'd be a pain to keep down there.
@@kuldipkalita2926 True. You can't be on the ground unless you actually fight, and Bruce didn't
People really doubt bruce's skill just cause he was an actor. His whole life was based on martial arts. He was so obsessed on getting better, he literally would challenge martial arts masters of all backgrounds, win or lose, to learn there special techiniques in order to improve his jeet kune do. Many people dont realise that he fought alot of skilled martial artists in private. That was the traditional martial arts way. He didnt really care much for acting until he knew it was a chance to show the world how great his jeet kune do was. I highly recommend you watch "the legend of bruce lee" on netflix. It shows every detail of bruce's life in 50 episodes. Truly an inspiration.
Nice man. Good video
if Bruce Lee was in UFC he could beat anyone no joke fr
Meme God bullshit, Khabib would fucking maul Bruce lee. I don't think he could handle the wrestling or grappling of any top level grappler.
Unidentified User you are right bruce would kick the fuck out of khabib as soon as he try to get hold of bruce .
Donnie Yen would wreck him.
Mathew Dix, Donnie yen will wretch Bruce? you are just a delusional fan boy, sorry...
Meme God, yeah, he could beat anyone in his weight class....
Wrestled to the ground and choked out probably.
deathfromabove592 yup by most blue belts😉
Nikki Butterfly, For some inexplicable reason I cannot reply directly on the thread, maybe the moderators have called a halt to any more comments.
I can only apologise if by offering your own opinion on this thread that you have encountered someone who has taken the comments way beyond normal and acceptable debate. Regrettably, Tane Sorby cannot help himself, where his sole aim is to drag others to the sewer level he himself exists at, I have no doubt that you are not overly bothered by him, but for my part, I cannot accept such utter disrespect and disregard for others who contribute normally and effectively.
I entered this debate initially, in defence of a man, "Bruce Lee" who I have admired throughout my lifetime, and to defend and uphold everything Bruce Lee was about, and everything he believed in, morally, spiritually, and in the realm of martial arts. I have no issue with a differing opinion, it is the way that opinion is put across which is my contention. Mr Sorby does not know any of the contributors he so openly abuses, and that is his first disrespect, one would not write to a stranger with such overt abuse, there is no cordiality, no warmth, or acceptance of another's view.
I have posted the final comment to Mr Sorby, and I really no longer care what he comes back with, I am done. I thank you for your kind support and comments, and would hope to speak with you again on any number of subjects on You Tube, please take care.
Kindest regards.
Then everybody will leave the match immediately.
Bruce Lee is great
Tane Sorby, Wing Chun( F= MX ) Accelerations or force is equal to mass multiplied by velocity,squared,if you increase the velocity of the punch, you've increased the power much more.This style was founded by a Buddhist Nun.Speed,knife hand strikes, simultaneously strikes and blocks of hard and soft harmonized techniques that are felt before seen is Wing Chun.If you practice this from a Wing Chun teacher and absorb only what is useful and discard what is not,Evan if it is only a few techniques or for speed,add them to your arsenal can only perfect your own style for the street.If one practice only one style of forms in a street fight your put in a box and your rehearsed rythem is BROKEN and you have to find the cause of your own ignorance.
Gregory Cappitte lmfao u tell him bro😂😂😂😂😂
I believe no matter what Bruce Lee turned his hand to he would have been up there as the best in the world his personality and determination was his most impressive characteristic he possessed not his physical skill all that can be built up but the will to do it and commit and never give up that is what separates the men from the boys that is what we should learn from Him not just martial art. He was and still is a true inspiration.
Bruce Lee was an actor not a fighter. Most MMA guys would walk right through him.
Exactly, he would have never undertaken any activity that would mess up his face or body. He was making money as an actor. If he would fight somebody like Tyson - the question would be how many seconds he has to live. One head shot would put him in a coma and a follow up would be a brain hemorrhage.
This grandmaster says otherwise ua-cam.com/video/_Yf-Cpvvucs/v-deo.html
@@vrokhlenko Many people have more than 1 profession. Thinking Bruce Lee couldn't fight is absurd. Talking about a man who did push ups with 2 fingers. He basically created sparring. Created the 3 inch punch. Showed the world MMA. His philosophy regarding what works and what doesn't work. Every fighter back in the days say he was legit but sorry your statement doesn't matter compared to them. Only you 90's baby is talking this shit but when Bruce was alive & walking around nobody was talking that shit. Plus Bruce Lee was a street fighter. He hated rules. He believed it limited a fighter.
He was first a fighter then an actor....
Ngura Sailo Bruce had no fights. So no, he was not a fighter.

Ufc rules: only two fighters go to fight
Bruce Lee,: plz can u lend me 10 fighters for the match
Bruce was decades ahead of everyone else. The ones who compare him to fighters 45 years after his death have missed the point. He laid the groundwork. Fighters today are good because of him. If Bruce were around today he would be decades ahead of everyone else just like he was back in the 60s/70s. Do these people really think his skill level would've remained exactly the same as it was in 1973? Of course not, he was always evolving. If Bruce Lee were born in today's times would be paving the way to yet a new unheard of level just like he did back then. Sure, Bruce was an actor because acting paid the bills (we all need to make a living), but he was a martial artist first.Throughout history there have always been haters who are just blind to, jealous of, or just under appreciate the gifts that the world gives them. Haters will see a man walk on water and criticize that "he can't swim". It's fine though..the Bruce Lee admirers far outnumber the haters. They only show up on these channels to criticize then fade back into obscurity where they belong.
Bruce Lee in ufc he would defeat everyone easily because he was too fast to get Hit and because his speed his punches are powerfull as fuck. He was so fast because he was on a Fitness lvl no human ever reached.
And all the fighters i see in ufc or in the World are not even close to him. He would defeat everyone easy going.
Also a karate champion I forest who it was said he hits as hard as a heavy weight
bruce lee would get destroyed in the ufc and it wouldn't even be close
He would be the god of UFC.
You wana see Game of Death Wikipedia it they give you Bruce's story under the 1972 tab. The 40 minutes of footage shot by Bruce are on youtube. That's all you need to see
Gone tooooo soon
Royce Gracie also had bare knuckle fights
Bruce Lee:- God of humanity
Period
Only thing i critizie is that we just see his skills in Movies and on Seminars but never in a Fight
Exactly, we may never know how good he actually was.
He gona get beat to a pulp...Bruce was a good teacher and actor nothing more
"be like water my friend" Bruce Lee.
Bruce Lee was an expert in mma... Movie martial arts. And nothing more. At this point he is no more proven or accomplished than anyone else who has never stepped in the ring or cage.
He was a martial artist who devoted his life to developing his own form of martial arts, which is essentially MMA generally.
We can speculate all we want on how he would fare today, but it's like comparing pro athletes from different eras.
Just enjoy his art and genius to serve as a legacy for others.
To answer the title of this video. Bruce Lee would get destroyed in seconds by the lowest ranked UFC fighter.
I always tell my boxing friends that if a young Bruce Lee walked into your Gym you trainer would get dollar signs in his eyes because the future super featherweight champion of the word just walked in. He was 5'8" sub 130lbs in his prime. 5'8" is a huge for a super featherweight, lomo is 5'7".
Lee was genetically the top 1% of the top 1% and then some. He has everything you cant coach. The boxing is the easy part, finding the freak of nature is the hard part. Hell the history of boxing is littered with champions who made it on natural gifts while having below average boxing skill (for elite fighters).
The other major plus is that he is choachable. The biggest hindrance to genetic freaks achieving their full potential is that they are lazy. They have so much god given ability that the develop a bad habit as kids to not work hard and learn their craft because everything comes so easy to them. They are so much better than their peers that they dont have to work to win. Lee never showed this tendency. His history is one of a fighter always learning, seeking out older mentors to learn new styles. He would take to MMA training like a fish to water.
UFC fighter- What’s your style?
Lee- I have no style. Following routine won’t allow you to adapt 🤨
If bruce lee 1 inch punch can drop a big man (much bigger than Bruce) on a chair and slide back wards and then fall. What will a normal punch do to a heavy waith. And will any 1 in MMA be able to catch bruce lee with a punch even once ??
If Bruce Lee would join UFC, he would get his ass handed over in a roll of toilet paper. Yes, he would get his ass kicked very easily.
There would no longer be a UFC, only smears on his fist.
Ha, that's a joke, Bruce would get smoked in the utc
bruce lee would get submitted in the first round
jason73 o look, an intellectual
This man was an actor and all his fights we're in a movie. Although his fights where in the movie and he was a good guy so he had to win
He fought outside alot, but wasnt into competitions
