It's unfortunate that Bruce Lee is now being compared this way as a fighter and everybody has over hyped his status in the wrong way. People who say he ain't shit now are missing a huge point in that it is like saying "I'm a better driver than the guy who developed the racing engine" You wouldn't be driving that fast today if that guy didn't step up and create a different dynamic that changed the standards. Pioneers and people who raise the bar are the ones that point the way so people have a level to reach and surpass. That is what Bruce was and is the guy that said "It can be done".
One thing I will add in defense of Bruce. Michael is bigger and stronger yes, but Bruce's greatest asset was his speed. He had demonstrated many times how much faster he was than the majority of the fighters of his time. Plus the fact that he had stated he would use anything to win a fight in a hand to hand and that one of his favorite weapons was the finger jab to the eyes. If Bruce did land that blow, which I think he definitely could, it would cause any sized fighter a damage that would hinder him to the point of leaving him wide open for a punch to the throat, a kick to the groin or liver shot. No fight is 100% certain until the fight is over. The street don't have no rules.
PREDATOR11910 Yea i know but still semi contact can just as easily be full contact + it takes more skill to pull your punches than it does to just let them carry through. BTW i got a video of me fighting to prove that i do fight. I lost but it was a pretty good fight. I'm still training. It's s.o.s round rock vs taylor. Trey vs Bankroft
I don't watch UFC so i don't know that much about the history of it. I just know that if Michael is able to go from semi contact to full contact easily and properly with the same skill then he would make a formidable fighter
***** Bro i never said anything about lee's skill and size. And i honestly dont give a shit. All i did was state an opinion which last i checked is legal
Michael Jai White is the monster here. You are talking about a guy that is 100 kg of muscle mass which have 8 black belts and doing movies, but he has used his fame to train with masters from all around the world in several disciplines. Even UFC fighters respect this guy. Speed, accuracy and techniques is something this guy knows very well. I have no idea how a fight between Bruce and Michael would end up but someone that massive with tons of martial arts knowledge is extremely dangerous. I have not seen anyone like Michael.
Bruce lee was able to fight somebody that was like twice his weight & height and used it against him. I know size is important but it still don't mean everything especially if your opponent is Bruce lee, he'd figure that shot out before the fight would even start
But if he were put on his back in full guard what would he do? A real fight can take place anywhere. It's not just about the stand up like some people like to believe. He would have lost on the ground and then picked it up afterwards because he was a student of the game. Always learning.
Avean did u see bruce lee training partners bone? they got bruises and crack just from bruce blocking, his bones are as hard as metal if udk, as he eats raw meat
Dk Soulstice Hahah, unless he probably could, no disrespect to Bruce Lee, but for some reason, when someone is a badass and is dead, people overestimate them, you got to remember Michael is a black belt in 9 fighting styles.
THEIAN11 maybe in the ring..but remember michael is a heavy weight,,so in a street fight stamina is important. so i would say in the ring michael maybe,,street fight bruce would win
THEIAN11 well, as respectable as that is, that also puts some conflict there since "styles" are so structured they cannot adapt to a scenario that the creator of the style had not thought of, Bruce Lee did no legit style for that very reason, and White is definatley stronger than Lee, but Lee is a lot faster than White, and Lee is unpredictable due to his unstructured form of fighting
ProScourge I know, I'm just saying, people blow lee up so much because he is dead, and yes, I'm not going to sit here and talk shit on it, but you know how people are, when someones dead and they are great at something, apparently that makes them the best there is and ever was, no disrespect was meant.
@@yassirelgazari4497 basically, anything that has done in the past can improve in future. Fighting styles has been improved lately if you know MMA which means Mix Martial Arts.. MMA vs Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do lol. Which one do you think will win lol? I mean Michael Jai White has facts but the truth is, we will never knew until the fight happens. Lol
@@mamia06 yea but bruce is one of the best fighters all the time if u see his speed and power whats in the past doesn't have to do anything with now. strength is strength. bruce wouldve been a world champion if he competed in mma he trained more then any mma fighter he is 130 pounds and move a punch bag from 200 like a 1 punch bag
@@yassirelgazari4497 I’m not being bias or any but this is reality. He won’t win because he only has one martial arts which I said of what he created, Jeet Kune Do compared to fighters these days with MMA which is not only knowing 1 Martial arts but much more than 2. Lol
@@yassirelgazari4497 he is the best fighter, he’s the goat but it’s better not to be delusional and denial tbh. Since, his weight is not overweight so it’s obviously he has speed and power but what gives to someone who has more than knowledge of Martial Arts.
Jaime Becerra eminem is doing things that no other artist is doing. . .and he is quite consistent. . .bruce lee never did much besides straight punches and side kicks. . .
Bruce is 135 lbs and never fought anyone. He never had not one single professional fight. There is no footage of him fighting yet you think he can cause Hollywood movies 😭
@@sitoperez3715 he was just a martial arts inventor, practitioner, philosopher, actor not a REAL fighter nor as good as in films. Complete bull-shit. I grew up as a kid watching his movies, emulating his style and thought he was "unbeatable" and a "grandmaster" above all prior to him and up til now I realised that martial arts and traditional dogmas and doctrines are useless in real combat form of fighting. Bruce Lee was just "good" and better amongst his students - everything else about him being superior is speculations, insinuations and hearsays....
@Vincent Preston ua-cam.com/video/aHRA0PIQeeY/v-deo.html not much but more than Bruce besides I'm smart enough to know they make weight classes for a reason. Not saying White is on a Jon Jones level
I used to box, and I weighed in at 170 lbs. I once sparred with a 225 lb guy who had less sparring experience than I did and much worse technique, he pretty much only threw overhand rights and straight rights at me while I hit him with everything I had. We sparred for 7 rounds and I landed way more shots than he did, but he basically walked right through most of them, and the few times he caught me it really shook me. If this were a real fight without gear there's no doubt this guy would have knocked me out even with his weak skills. We'll never know who would win but you can't be serious is you think size doesn't matter, especially if you have never been in a fight, and this is a 100lb difference we're talking about.
He means size doesnt matter when its a guy who is 5'9 225 lbs vs a guy who is 6'2 240 pounds.. But for fucks sake!!! a 135lbs man vs a 240lbs man (of Muscle!! not fat) fuck man. Mayweather vs Tyson.. size fucking matters.
Bruce is not only faster, he hits really hard. He trained for pure strength while not building size so he can keep his speed. He can kick you AND already retract the leg before you finish blinking. Everyone who eye witnessed him said he can do everything he is known for. And don't forget this was a time where he was very hated by Westerners and Easterners due to envy. But Not a single person from his time era dare came out and said he was fake. They know better then to fuck with him.
the main reason people respect bruce lee is that he ADMITS his limitation. he NEVER says he is god. watch his movie, learn his philosophy, he has shown thousands of times in his movie how to fight an opponent much bigger than him in LIFE-THREATENING scenarios! below are the methods: 1. kick him in the nuts 2. confuse him with fake punches and kicks 3. bite him in the legs 4. tear his chest hair off he will turn DIRTY and NASTY when necessary. so rather than considering him a professional fighter, i would say he is a SURVIVOR. we are talking about real fight, not competition with a set of rules!
i don't think child knew professionally how to utiliise all his weight and muscles to throw out a punch. if u really practie kung fu or other martial arts, u know even western boxer will not ultilise all his muscles to give out a punch. so there's always a difference between child street fight and bruce lee's street fight
@My Name Is I am indeed a rare person. I've also done my fair share of stupid. And it's clear you're fair share is still occurring 😁 Bruce was more than a one inch punch. His mind and his words were more powerful than martial arts and more meaningful than a who could beat who pissing contest. That's my point. That's, for those who care to look deeper, my point. And that stands not only for three years but, like his legend, forever. Stop being butt hurt 😂
Man, we should let the dead rest. Goddamn it. Dude's a legend, respect that. Move on. Beat who's alive and make a name for yourself. Become a legend yourself.
@@vinnicinhus44 Oh yeah show me? I've looked everywhere and i can't find any evidence he's competed at all... You idiots don't know what real is you're deluted .
@@MrTubeWizard Besides the fact that he is a graduated black belt, you got this ua-cam.com/video/nMLX4KO2Vv4/v-deo.html And this ua-cam.com/video/aHRA0PIQeeY/v-deo.html
Speaking the truth You know those old type condensed metal milk can. One of the stunt guy mentioned Bruce used to show off to them how he used 1 finger to poke a hole in the metal can, so I think is this a feat which a human can do.
@@ThePharaoh87 with two fights. A sanctioned three round youth boxing match. He won on the cards. And his fight with Wong Jack Man which, despite winning, disappointed Lee in how ineffective his kung fu was, claiming he won merely by being the more athletic of the two. Somehow, his fans have exaggerated these into him being a boxing champion in hong kong and besting a bunch of kung fu masters that challenged him.
***** Thank god. I was starting to think this new age that ignorant ppl had forgotten. I'm sure me and MJW will meet one day if he really believes he's better than Bruce and we'll see what happens. I think it would be pretty cool. Ppl should be able to dream. What he said is disrespect.
EMPEROR K00L I would like to see him challenge a legit fighter. Do movies with legit fighters. Jackie chan and Jet Li went at it. Mike Tyson showed he hadn't lost touch with his fighting spirit against Donnie Yen earlier this year. Hell even Jason Stathem went at a bigger stronger Dwayne Johnson tho it was scripted the other way cause he was the bad guy. MJW needs someone somewhat youthful, experienced, with clout not a deceased legends.
Don Mateo83 umm your joking right lol he could kick a 300 pound bag to the ceiling and he was literally to fast to react to one kick to the mma fighters head game over
I doubt either of them would have been afraid of the other because they are both actors. They both have the same professional record as far as I know 0-0.
Tai Gethan The difference is Michael jay white did compete and you have recordings of that Bruce lee on the other hand only has demonstrations of some moves most amateur mma fighters are capabele of.
Bro said the same thing about Floyd Mayweather and you didn't hear Floyd say shit back. He's a true martial artist at 230 pounds, he won't feel bruce Lee's attacks, I'll take his and Joe Rogan's expert opinion over the opinion of Bruce Lee stans, Chuck Norris and Ip Man also said something similar by saying that it should be obvious because they're martial artists and he's an actor
If I’m going to break it down. The only fighter on planet earth that I think would have a chance at beating Bruce Lee was Mike Tyson at his prime - in a no weapons fight. Bruce was a master of trapping and direct attacks. Tyson was a master of evasive entry with round attacks. The evasiveness of Tyson would have made it near impossible to trap him since his defence was not with his hands. Tysons defence was only with movement. When His hands were revealed - it was only to deliver a deadly blow. I can’t believe I’m saying this but in a fist to fist fight - I don’t see Bruce beating Tyson. But anyone else - the fight won’t last more than a minute. He would trap you and you will not be able to take his barrage of punches that will be coming at you like a Submachine gun. Wow I just developed so much more respect for mike Tyson.
@Fred Forbes you think I’m young - thanks. There are many things you do not understand and you probably never will. It’s line saying a small bullet cannot kill an elephant.
@Fred Forbes these 3 art forms of which you speak are currently primitive still evolving and even now are not at the level that Bruce was soo many years ago. This is not about street fight or wealth. You simply cannot fathom what I’m trying to tell you. Ok currently Jackie chan is one of the best martial artists - Jackie said it was impossible to see Bruce’s attacks. Samo Hung said - Bruce used to go from school to school and fight everyone usually except the teacher so as not to disrespect. A home raised fighter does not create his own artform. Even what you call mma was created by Bruce lee. And mma today is still primitive and still evolving. Yea you were bouncing and street fighting for 100 years but a fight between you and Bruce would have taken like 20 seconds. The fact that you are saying what you are saying tells me you don’t even know. We are talking about principles and artform you are talking about size - for a true master - size is totally irrelevant. I did wing Tsun for over 12 years, i did kempo jujitsu and I’m one away from black. It was when I tried to learn Silat that my mind opened as I was under the tutelage of a spiritual master and realised what true martial arts was. I immediately stopped training as I realised that as a Christian I could not partake in this. So again like I said - you don’t even have an inclining of understanding what you are talking about. After over 18 years of training - one day with this spiritual master changed my whole life. Just one day. Let’s leave it there.
Bruce will always be pound for pound the best. Michael after you find out that you couldn't hit him Bruce would go in for a kill. Speed matters too. David vs Goliath.
Michael, I could say a million things but i'll just say this - Bruce was the reason you're relevant today. He was the reason martial artist got all the exposure. It's not about Bruce being able to beat everybody. It's about respect, which you obviously know nothing about. Pay credit and respect where it is due, like the thousands of fighters better than you who respect Master Bruce.
@Brick Schitthouse so you say michael can defeat any one like Donnie Yen, Jet Lee, Jackie Chan, Chuck Norris, IP Man, Mas Oyama and so on. Because he has more weight among them ? I think you guys are delusional. Because you are comparing sports with martial arts where even the mind matters
@@AntonPerera Michael Jai white is a legit fighter, he did more tournaments than Joe Rogan and bruce lee. And all three are respected in the martial arts world.
Bruce Lee has beaten plenty of people with 100+ weight advantage.. What made Bruce so special was that yes.. In most situations size makes a great deal of a difference.. But Bruce had unparalleled speed, timing, and technique to make up for the shortcoming of size. What good is that 100 weight advantage if you can't land a blow?
My brother delivered flowers to bob wall, the big white dude in enter the dragon. Bob wall told my brother that Bruce literally kicked like a mule. The directors wife of entered the dragon touched Bruce lees arm and retracted in fright saying my god, it feels like warm marble. There are Korean soldiers that take bladed axes to their stomachs and don't bleed. The human body is capable of a lot. The great Miyamoto Musashi weathered extreme elements.
wow that's crazy, nice story man. But yea it seems like a lot of people underestimate/ don't understand the power of MMA and limits of the human body. Bruce Lee was one of a kind
+Eclipsen Gaming he was. His fastest reflexes were recorded at 5 hundredths of a second. He even said there people faster than him. It's just that he was more deceptive with his feints. If you look closely and in slo mo he'll pull off two or three feints before making contact in his films.
He's a well trained Martial artist who outweight Bruce lee by over 100 lb. There's a reason why they have different weight levels in MMA, boxing etc... Size does matter. It's simple physics.
alan boardman I'm a martial artists. Those who really are know what bruce is like being he is a kindred spirit they walk in the footsteps of. He trained all around the world, studied Muhammad Ali's boxing, fencing, wing chub, shaolin kung if I'm not mistaken, Japanese styles as well. He made his own fighting style. He accepted challenges from many ignorant belligerent ballroom brawlers that thought it wise to pick on those physically outclassed by them.
+Katy Lee I agree 100% and yes the black guy is right, size does matter; that's why Bruce cut weight from 170 to 125 because being lighter with no fat and all muscle meant he could move faster than anyone else while still maintaining and incredible amount of power. For example: A bullet is super thin and light, but that's what allows it to move astonishingly fast, and we all know the formula for force right? Acceleration x Mass = Force so in essence the lighter a human frame is the faster it can accelerate which can lead to higher force being exerted on strike as long as the human frame is incredibly muscular for it's size, because we all know muscle weighs more than fat (mass). That black guy probably has like 10% body fat.
+Miles Hamblen big George Foreman was slower than all his opponents . Yet Big George Foreman defeated all his opponents except for Muhammed Ali. If speed was everything and strength mentioned nothing, Big George Foreman would have never beaten all those guys.
You can't have it all, Michael Jai White. Are you talking about back in the 70's when no one but Bruce Lee knew anything about MMA? (Because he basically created that). That would mean Michael Jai White wouldn't know shit but basic karate. America didn't even know about Kung Fu yet. So Bruce is basically everyone's teacher, show some freaking respect. A teacher and a leader is always ahead of the student.
@@tybiasbutler6745 because kung fu isnt fighting , its Chinese culture, there is martial arts to it but not entirely martial arts, so when it comes to just fighting, boxing or kick boxing is preferable because its designed in a way to use maximum potential by exerting minimum energy, dont get the 2 mixed, never has any Chinese person said kung fu is just for fighting
Wow these comments are so funny. I wonder what people would do if Bruce were still alive and these two actually did fight each other in their primes and Michael managed to put Bruce on his back, then what? Just because Bruce was a great master, doesn't mean he can't be beat, he was human like the rest of us. He may have been a bit super human, but unfortunately his death proved that he was human. Bruce was a master of so many different disciplines, and he was such a great person as far as I've seen on t.v., but surpassing most in your craft, doesn't make you invincible. As history has proven over and over again, the best of the best have met defeat at some point in their lives and careers. No one has been or will ever be unbeatable, no matter how great they are in what they do. I think we call that perfection, and so far, no one has been proven to be perfect. Anything is possible, Bruce could've made one wrong move that Jai could've capitalized on and triumphed because of, or vice versa. Even though I feel jai is incorrect in saying he could beat Bruce due to size difference, I don't feel it would've been impossible for jai to beat him if they were to fight in their primes.
Lee was no master. He wasn't old enough for one, and he simply didn't do it long enough to be a master. Hell, he wasn't even certified to be teaching people. He didn't even have William, or Ip's blessing to be doing so, either...lol Lee was an actor dude, that enjoyed working out, and was NEVER a fighter outside of his films. His demo's and training video's CLEARLY show to even a blind man, that he wasn't anywhere near as good as his fanboys claim....I have seen green belts with better form, and more power than Lee...He couldn't even beat little 120 pound sopping wet Wong Jack. Lee never fought any real fighters in his life, and the few he was in were all bums, nobodies....Woopitty Dooo. White would fucking slaughter Lee. Lee couldn't even begin to hurt White. Not a chance.
but what evidence does mjw have to say that he can beat bruce lee? not that there's no chance but it shows his low iq to say that "size" is what matters most.. bruce lee might be too fast & skilled for a 200 pound guy like mjw.. but u never know who'd win, either one of them could win, but he sounded a lil too confident, thats the issue about this guy..
They're both Martial Artists. Michael Jai White is a Black Belt in 8 Martial Arts disciplines and has sparred with world champion Boxers and Mixed Martial Artists. Why would you think that someone with that kind of skill who is obviously strong and fit could not beat Bruce Lee? You're talking about the MMA equivalent of a Bantamweight fighting a Heavyweight. He could manhandle Bruce Lee and knock him out with one strike while Bruce would face enormous difficulty doing anything to hurt Michael Jai White.
Size kind of does matter; I'm not saying Bruce Lee would lose or win, but Bruce Lee did say that Muhammad Ali would beat him in a fight because he said look at the SIZE of my Chinese fist compared to boxer Muhammad's fist. Either way, my full respect to Bruce and Michael Jai
I think what Bruce said about the SIZE of his hand was a joke not real because I or my friends sometimes said like Bruce to the people who we are sure to beat too. I a new documentary " I am Bruce Lee ", one witness told Bruce intended to fight with Ali one day ( it prove Bruce was not really afraid of Ali), but unfortunately he passed away.
"Everybody says I must fight Ali someday," Bruce said. "I'm studying every move he makes. I'm getting to know how he thinks and moves". Bruce Lee knew he could never win a fight against Ali "look at my hands", he said."That's a little Chinese hand. he'd kill me"
ninjanizzle You are wrong or misunderstanding. What Bruce said was just a joke. When I watch new documentary " I am Bruce Lee ", one of his friend asked Bruce " Why did you have so many Mohamed Ali video and watch his video so many times ? ". Bruce answered " Because one day I would fight him ". He meant he can fight Ali with boxing, when he is ready. He watch Ali 's fight in order to get familiar with Ali's style as you wrote "I'm studying every move he makes. I'm getting to know how he thinks and moves" and find a way to neutralise it. Bruce Lee defeated 3- time Hong Kong Boxing Champion in his fist time before. Bruce was a genius as many people witnessed. Ed Parker, the father of American Kendo Karate told " Bruce was the best martial artist I ever seen and he is one of 2 billion ". Others such as Jhoon Rhee ( Ali's master in Taekwando ) , Chuck Norris, Jim Kelly, Dan Inosanto, Louis Delgardo etc.....said similar. I think Ali, Tyson or anyone would dare not underestimate Bruce's ability in a boxing fight, otherwise they would be lost for sure
+Lap Vu according to u its a joke, and who r u? bruce never said it was a joke, so he was dead serious. u r assuming because u dont want to accept the truth. bruce knew size mattered. that documentary is on youtube here titled "2012 I Am Bruce Lee" so tell me what exact minute i can see his friend saying this? theres no way they would allow bruce lee to fight ali, he was way too small to face a heavyweight. a fight like that could end in a fatality. fights against fighters of equal weights have ended in deaths. he copied alis boxing because ali was 1 of the best boxers at the time, so who better to learn from? bruce lee defeated this so called 3 time high school boxing champ called gary elms, but if u look for any info on him u find nothing. no records, no interviews not even a single picture. i find that very strange. ali was an olympic boxing gold medalist, a high school tournament isnt worth spit compared to that. also hawkins cheung said he and bruce were using wing chun in the tournament, so their opponents cant have been highly skilled to lose to guys with no boxing experience. bruce lee has no official amateur boxing records to verify anything. ali does. watch the video titled "Bruce Lee, Ted Wong & Dan Lee Hitting Heavy Bag HomeFootage 1960's" on youtube. it should be obvious to u bruce doesnt have better boxing than the first guy on the bag. who trained bruce lee in boxing? even the best fighters had good trainers. go watch ali and tyson on the heavy bag, bruce cannot compare to that. bruce was not a professional boxer and he damn sure wasnt a heavyweight. for u to even think he would stand a chance against ali or tyson is highly delusional. that would be a mismatch of the highest order.
I can sense it as a joke and I strongly believe it's the truth. In my life, I met many people talk like what Bruce said as a joke. Bruce think size matter only when both have the martial art skill and speed. At the time of the boxing with Gary Elms, Bruce were only18 years old and not prepared well for that tournament. I accept that Bruce's boxing skill at the time were not well and he used Wing chun in the tournament. To learn that bad experience, Bruce study Ali's fight very carefully and copied Ali's boxing. It was true that Bruce admired Ali and thought Ali was 1 of the best boxers at the time, so Bruce learnt from Ali to prepare for the fight with Ali. I believe Bruce has the chance to beat Ali when he had more experience in boxing. He was faster than Ali and powerful enough to knock down Ali. If you look back at the Rio Olympic at the swimming event, a young man from Singapore beat Michael Phelp ( his idol ) in 200m butterfly ? The same thing happen I other sport like tennis. One young one came up like Roger Federer beat his idol Pete Sampras in 2001 Wimbledon and so on. I did not hear what you report in " I am Bruce Lee" I got a record and the photo of the tournament in Hong Kong. Bruce was a rarely genius and very fast learner and I am very sure he would be a threat to Ali and Tyson. I am sure that Ali and Tyson would not underestimate Bruce in a fight. Are you aware that Ali and Tyson respect and admire Bruce ? Bruce may have to fight other boxers ( assume 4 or 5 boxer from his weight division and up to higher division ) first to get experience as he have more experience than he would feel confident to challenge Ali or Tyson. Bruce would challenge Ali or Tyson when he feel his boxing skill would be well enough to beat them at the right time.
From the information that's available, Bruce Lee is the reason why so many martial artists have made it, both in the sport and in movies. He cannot really be compared to these others. He studied and mastered all sorts of fighting styles, technics, and was a freak when it came to his craft, including his workouts. He wasn't the biggest on the block, but was fast as lightning, had very powerful punches and kicks, much more powerful than guys twice his size. I think for anyone to be even close to his abilities, that person must have crazy OCD for winning, but also masters of their expertise. Most all-time greats (I.e. Tyson, Ali, Jordan, Gretzky, Pele, etc.) in any sport or other profession (I.e successful Entrepreneurs, best Doctors, best any type of Worker...) for that matter, have this characteristic that is similar to Bruce. He was also intelligent to figure out that he could make WAAY more money displaying his skills in front of a camera. Search interviews with many who learned from him, trained with him, or sparred with him, and I think most (if not all) will tell you Bruce Lee was "the real deal..." Additionally, in Bruce's day the performance enhancing products that many athletes have been using was not available. I don't think we'll ever see another Bruce Lee.
@Clench Chad Man Bruce Lee was the fastest. And was not your average man. One kick to Mike's head or chest, that he wouldn't see coming, would put Mike in hospital.
@Clench Chad Man Are you saying that the testimony of James Colburn, Jim Kelly, Joe Lewis, Jackie Chan and other martial arts experts don't matter ? Nevertheless, Bruce Lee has demonstrated his ability by giving exhibitions. Plus his films, which show his technique and speed, reveal him to be unmatched.
Bruce Lee's heaviest weight was 160 Ibs. His lightest weight was 132 Ibs (Enter the dragon). Shortly afterwards he became ill. The 160 Ib Bruce Lee would give Michael Jai White a run for his money - in the cage and on the street. Remember when 180 Ib Royce Gracie was beating up all them 220 Ib guys in the first two years of MMA / UFC ? Or when Rocky Marciano (185 Ibs) was knocking out all them 210 - 220 Ib boxers ? Size is a lot but it's not the be all and end all.
Mathew Stovell...remember when Royce Gracie fought Matt Hughes in the same weight class and got the crap kicked out of him...hmmm...Royce was fighting fighters with NO Jui Jitsu capabilities that's why he won...if he stood with them he would have lost for sure...MMA fighters nowadays would have no problem with Royce Gracie at his best.
Matt Hughes was 32 and Royce Gracie was 39...get your facts straight...AND...Hughes was only 5'9" while Gracie was 6'1" with a 6.5" reach advantage over Hughes...AND he still LOST.
if i heard bruce say be like water .. I am water ..I would not fight his crazy ass lol ... hed win before he even threw a punch ... fighting a damn man thats built like a rock and says hes water ....shiiiiiiiiiit
bruce would've won hands down. Micheal says because he's bigger he'd beat him but his size would be his own worst enemy. Bruce will use it against him.i don't think Micheal can beat Donnie yen either
Michael Jai Fool show some more respect to a legend like Bruce Lee, u ain't got enough class or style to ever be on his level... Size doesn't always matter in a real street fight
LDN LONDON yep. and history proves it. David slew goliath, and Bruce Lee would destroy mr. white. when u have someone as disciplined as Bruce Lee was he would make you fight his fight, then toy with you and after that just straight take you out!!!
Bruce Lee had plenty of fights all over China to be well known in fighting circles off camera. How many real fights has White had to be recognized as a real fighter?
+scarred4evr03 He had to do a 20man kumite to get his black belt in Kyokushin Karate. Which is 20 1min fights in a row against Black Belts. Which is about 20min more fighting than Bruce Lee has been involved in, because he's never been in a fight.
Lie huh...Chinese fighters constantly take on movie stars especially during those days. Mr. White is obviously a talented martial artist however, he'll have to do much more than fight his classmates for a minute per to impress the Chinese people! There are plenty of Shaolin and wing chun masters that would gladly allow White an audience. American movie stars love talking but too pretty to fight skinny hungry Chinese men. If he fought in China he would be much more than " Great White lie".
Bruce Lee was more of an actor than a fighter. Michael Jai White has I think 7 different black belts and is more of a fighter than an actor. Michael is 6 ft tall, Lee is 5 ft 7 so Michael has a longer reach than Lee. Michael outweighs Lee by around 100 lbs. Although Lee is fast Michael is not slow. Michael is bigger and would last longer than Lee. Lee's famous punches and stuff wouldn't be effective against Michael because he isn't gonna stand there and let him hit him. Overall if a fight were to occur between the two it's obvious that Michael would win.
AJ Wash u no nothing about martial art u just got 2 shay something michael is good but bruce lee is the greatest ever and no one would no who will when u guys only saying that because bruce lee is dead
KERRY DAWKINS not only have I been boxing for 3 years I have a black belt in karate and jiu-jitsu now if you'd please stop assuming things and learn how to spell that would be great
AJ Wash Bruce Lee can backup his reputation, although it is exaggerated a lot. Bruce Lee did not master one single martial art, he incorporated many styles into his martial arts. Bruce would qualify to be black belt, but just because you have a black belt, it does not mean you are a good fighter. He even if invented one Jeet Kune Do, which is effective in a real fight, although Bruce Lee is not limited by it. Bruce Lee was familiar enough with the major martial arts, to fight against them, and also to use them in his advantage. Bruce Lee IQ is above Michael Jai White, even in regards to fighting. Bruce Lee does not even require the upper hand to win, he is fully able to customize his method to win the fight. This does not mean Michael Jai White is just Hollywood, but the truth is he has not shown he is able to fight the caliber of a fighter, such as Bruce Lee. Even by this short video, he relies upon weight as his upper hand, but that is counter acted easily by a skilled fighter.
MIDNIGHT EYE I think Bruce lee would destroy him and yes size matter but Depends on the factory and 100lb above Bruce lee is completely ok and Bruce lee is too fast and strong for his size and he can even break a board with just A few inch punch and the way he kick is unbelievable and Bruce lee is really skillful fighter and I understand why Michael said I can beat Bruce lee cuz he is smaller and think he can take him out easily or unless he want to be famous by saying he can beat Bruce lee and man I fought the guy that weight 270lb and I throw him on the ground and all it matter is if you really train yourself well and Bruce lee train every single day and until doctor said he has to stop training while he was injured and I think Bruce lee would destroy him for good.
The dude is half a feet taller and has over 70 lbs of weight advantage over Bruce, along with some fighting skills. He's not bragging. He's being realistic. Even Bruce would agree.
"I can beat Bruce Lee" He shows no class and lots of disrespect to say that, number 1 you talking about someone who has passed away and can't even defend himself against your moronic statement. Mike Jai White I hope you read this cuz I'll never watch any movie or anything else connected to you
You show dishonor and disrespect by trashing another man's name through assumption. Respect doesn't mean compromising your beliefs and disregarding actual experiences you have had that make you believe what you believe(his career around fighting doesn't afford him the whatever to ignore a 100 pound difference in size when sizing up a fight. Oh, and he never himself uses the words "I can beat Bruce Lee" as your comment let on
Disagree with calling him a 'small heavyweight'. At around 220lbs he wasn't small by any standards, most of his opponents were round his weight. Yeah, he gave up height and reach but size amasses to more than just that. Hence why we have weight classes, not height or reach classes. Cant use it as a Bruce Lee comparision who's literally around 80 pounds lighter than Michael Jai White😂
Bruce Lee could knock a 250 man back between 3-5 feet with 1-inch punch. He bench pressed 3 times his bodyweight. He could hold his on bodyweight with his arms extended for at least 20 seconds. His kicks had to be slowed down for cameras to see.
Michael Jai White can kick a punching back and bust it where its leaking sand. Bruce Lee can Kick a punching back twice Michael's weight and bust the entire contents all over the ground. I dont think size really plays a part here.
Stupido feckoff if you know anything about punching techniques how Bruce Lee is punching is Wing Chun Style. He does not fully rotate the palm facing down at the end of the punch. Wing Chun has always been his base of fighting where he reverts too. While the Wing Chun style does not have the same reach as boxing or other forms of fighting the snap is much greater and with the mechanics of this style more punches can be thrown in succession without telegraphing so much. Bruce was no armature at punching, he just didn't punch like everyone assumes one should punch.
only his palm position is 'wing chun style'. He is not using the retarded wing chun pigeon toed stance, or the retarded wing chun centre line. But he still ends up looking like a C class amateur. I thought you said he could destroy a punchbag?
Stupido feckoff I didnt say anything about destroying a punching bag. I'll let you re-read what I said if you can. All I know is when bruce was alive nobody was talking as much trash as they do now. There is something to be said about a guy who literally had to engage in real fights all the time because had that meany haters and he beat them all.
"Bruce Lee can Kick a punching back twice Michael's weight and bust the entire contents all over the ground." so then this must have been a joke. and not a very funny one.
Regardless of who wins, MJW shouldn’t have said that about someone who’s passed away. Not only is it a form of disrespect, he could never prove it he can beat Bruce too.
Bruce will fuck him up.. he might be a smaller dude but he is fast as hell.. the bigger you are the slower you are, its common sense, it don't matter about the size..
You are stupid if you think size doesn't matter even though bruce lee was fast as fuck mjw is one of the fastest big guys ever, clearly you don't know what he's capable of.
One thing that hasn't really been considered here is that if Micheal Jai White was around at the time of Bruce Lee he'd probably of been smaller than Bruce Lee (because of a lack of sports/nutritional supplements), also lacking in the physical abilities of him. And If Bruce Lee was around in this era he could of conceivably made better use of sports nutrition to be as strong as Micheal Jai White. So even Micheal Jai White's argument about size is wrong even if you take away the fact that Bruce Lee had created his own art before 26, which would probably adapt to the regimented arts that Micheal has stubbornly stuck too.
That's the most moronic generalization I've ever heard. It's got nothing to do with being black/white/Asian etc, it's about your genetics and how you are brought up. P.s: Saying no offense doesn't mean I'm not going to take offense, I find your view deeply offensive and Is one best left in the last century...
+Sam Mathews Michael Jai White would still be the same height as he is without supplements and as someone who has been training in martial arts a long time it is likely he would have a big frame too to support such activity. However, in my opinion, Bruce Lee would out speed him in every aspect, and if you can imagine what a kick from Bruce lee would be like (surely rock solid, plus Lee's force behind it which as we know, a one inch punch from him carries serious pounds of force) to any part of Jai's body it would surely cause as much damage if not more than anyone twice Lee's size. Because his body was so conditioned his attacks would much more felt, even if Jai was more powerful Force, plus lightning speed and rock solid limbs = Bruce Lee as winner -My opinion
you know what's so funny? he says he can beat Bruce Lee who never fought and everyone flips out but when he says he can beat the cast of expendables nobody bats an eye. Randy Couture is an expendable and he is a three x world Champion who is his size and an olympic wrestler lmao at how idiots base opinions.
Bruce Lee’s fights are never recorded. Street fights. Those are real legitimate “records” of a true fighter. Fighting in the ring with RULES , doesn’t equate to a true fighter although I won’t discredit their fighting capabilities , in a ring LOLOL
Too many butthurt Bruce Lee fans. I mean to the point that they are trying to calculate and theorize how the fight would go. You people need to relax. Bruce Lee isn't fucking Superman and Michael Jai White is allowed to speak his peace.
Incessant Wake people are only choosing Bruce lee because of his fights in his movies. They don't even know Michael Jai White background. They wanna write and talk about what they heard. Lol I agree with you man.
fuck that mothe fucker u you never beat bruce lee in your dreams bruce lee always be history no matter what but jet li would fuck you up o what abot jackie chan
***** SO LET ME GET THIS RIGGT......YOU SAID PRETTY MUCH THAT THE BIGGER MAN WILL WIN RIGHT.BUT IN SOME OF THE FIRST UFC FIGHTS THE SMALLER MEN WAS WINNING AND THERE WHERE NO WEIGHT LIMIT TO WHO FIGHTS WHO.SIR WHAT YOU SAID MAKES NO FUCKIN SINCE.NOT ONLY DOES THIS APPLY TO THE UFC BUT EVERYDAY LIFE.SMALLER MEN HAVE BEAT MEN MUCH BIGGER THAN THEM OVER THE TIME OF HISTORY.SO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING MAKES NOT A BIT OF SINCE!!!THIS IS FACTS!!!!!PROVEN FACTS!!!
But they lose right and to a smaller man right fighting is fighting.Now think if Bruce Lee was still alive there's no telling to what he would know and that's where everyone gets lost at he was ahead of his time then and I'm pretty sure he would be today as well!
omnitrix152 Core strength? Yes but Michael Jai White is stronger than Bruce overall. If both were to fight it'll be a good fight to watch but I just think Bruce has more fighting experience than Michael
for the people that think that White will stand a chance vs Jun Fan Lee (Bruce Lee) *Do you know anything about JKD or Wing Chun or Bruce lee's tendom* This man has one of the best techniques ever and he is lightning fast be aware of that.
people dont understand size only gives a weight advantage. every body type is different and give different advantages. micheal jai white is a big and very athletic man but we have to remember bruce lee would spent al day training. he found comfort in it. he was without a doubt the fastest puncher to ever live and had so much power he would send men flying with a punch that had barely any space to gain power imagine his real punches. im pretty sure i heard he would need to train with a punching bag made with metal because any other would break or sumn like that
@@shivamrawat7572 Bruce Lee learned from IP man whom taught wing chun and was regarded a Chinese hero for fighting the Japanese his first famous student was Bruce Lee way before his "actor career" try again in your 10.000th life homeboy
This guy deserves a lot of respect. He takes amazing care of himself and he certainly can walk the walk. But Bruce Lee had the power of a heavy weight and that’s documented among many fighters, heavyweights and others. I’ve seen how fast M.J. White is and I’ve seen Bruce lee’s speed, and Bruce owns speed. Bruce is lightning and could kick and retract before MJW could react. The other intangible is Bruce’s chi. He could move a man 10’ with the force of his punch from just a few inches away. 140lbs vs 225lbs. Typically you would say the 225 pound man has the distinct advantage. But Bruce Lee was not just a normal man, his mental and physical force was unparalleled regardless of what Michael Jai White says. Size only matters when you let size matters. Remember the old adage: Don’t judge the size of the dog in the fight, judge the size of the fight in the dog.
If you ever been in a street fight you should know size matter it doesn't always mean the bigger guy going to win but it means he have a better advantage but if you ever been in a real fight you know size Matters
A hundred pounds heavier means that you are a hundred pounds slower against a man that can break a bone or two, with just one blow. That you probably couldn't predict, or see coming.
@@wammygames7627 Conor and Bruce Lee are pretty much the same size AND he was trying to be respectful. Michael Jai White on the other hands is bigger than both of them combined WITH the skill to back it up. He'd wreck them both at the same time.
It's unfortunate that Bruce Lee is now being compared this way as a fighter and everybody has over hyped his status in the wrong way. People who say he ain't shit now are missing a huge point in that it is like saying "I'm a better driver than the guy who developed the racing engine" You wouldn't be driving that fast today if that guy didn't step up and create a different dynamic that changed the standards. Pioneers and people who raise the bar are the ones that point the way so people have a level to reach and surpass. That is what Bruce was and is the guy that said "It can be done".
***** Micheal Jai is a real fighter, he just also has an acting career. He was a fighter before he was an actor.
One thing I will add in defense of Bruce. Michael is bigger and stronger yes, but Bruce's greatest asset was his speed. He had demonstrated many times how much faster he was than the majority of the fighters of his time. Plus the fact that he had stated he would use anything to win a fight in a hand to hand and that one of his favorite weapons was the finger jab to the eyes. If Bruce did land that blow, which I think he definitely could, it would cause any sized fighter a damage that would hinder him to the point of leaving him wide open for a punch to the throat, a kick to the groin or liver shot. No fight is 100% certain until the fight is over. The street don't have no rules.
PREDATOR11910 Yea i know but still semi contact can just as easily be full contact + it takes more skill to pull your punches than it does to just let them carry through. BTW i got a video of me fighting to prove that i do fight. I lost but it was a pretty good fight. I'm still training. It's s.o.s round rock vs taylor. Trey vs Bankroft
I don't watch UFC so i don't know that much about the history of it. I just know that if Michael is able to go from semi contact to full contact easily and properly with the same skill then he would make a formidable fighter
***** Bro i never said anything about lee's skill and size. And i honestly dont give a shit. All i did was state an opinion which last i checked is legal
Size matters but so does power, speed accuracy and technique. Bruce Lee was a monster man.
Michael Jai White is the monster here. You are talking about a guy that is 100 kg of muscle mass which have 8 black belts and doing movies, but he has used his fame to train with masters from all around the world in several disciplines. Even UFC fighters respect this guy. Speed, accuracy and techniques is something this guy knows very well. I have no idea how a fight between Bruce and Michael would end up but someone that massive with tons of martial arts knowledge is extremely dangerous. I have not seen anyone like Michael.
Bruce didn't have much of a ground game though.
Bruce lee was able to fight somebody that was like twice his weight & height and used it against him. I know size is important but it still don't mean everything especially if your opponent is Bruce lee, he'd figure that shot out before the fight would even start
But if he were put on his back in full guard what would he do? A real fight can take place anywhere. It's not just about the stand up like some people like to believe. He would have lost on the ground and then picked it up afterwards because he was a student of the game. Always learning.
Avean did u see bruce lee training partners bone? they got bruises and crack just from bruce blocking, his bones are as hard as metal if udk, as he eats raw meat
Ask him if he can beat Meng/Haku and he will leave the Studio immediately
One does not simply say he can beat Bruce Lee.
Lol, the should allow mims to be inserted with text on UA-cam
Dk Soulstice Hahah, unless he probably could, no disrespect to Bruce Lee, but for some reason, when someone is a badass and is dead, people overestimate them, you got to remember Michael is a black belt in 9 fighting styles.
THEIAN11 maybe in the ring..but remember michael is a heavy weight,,so in a street fight stamina is important. so i would say in the ring michael maybe,,street fight bruce would win
THEIAN11 well, as respectable as that is, that also puts some conflict there since "styles" are so structured they cannot adapt to a scenario that the creator of the style had not thought of, Bruce Lee did no legit style for that very reason, and White is definatley stronger than Lee, but Lee is a lot faster than White, and Lee is unpredictable due to his unstructured form of fighting
ProScourge
I know, I'm just saying, people blow lee up so much because he is dead, and yes, I'm not going to sit here and talk shit on it, but you know how people are, when someones dead and they are great at something, apparently that makes them the best there is and ever was, no disrespect was meant.
I got respect for MJW but go listen to Jim Kelly. Bruce Lee was untouchable.
People said the same about Ali, who cares. Michael would beat him too. Believing in mysticism doesn't work in reality.

Nobody could stop him from testing in peace 🤣
bruce lee was light years ahead of white.
that dude isnt eating raw meat like a tiger.he's eating peanut butter and jelly
you can ask any martial arts master and theyll say bruce lee was overrated
Im sure you will be saying the same thing about eminem in 20 years also
Jaime Becerra eminem is doing things that no other artist is doing. . .and he is quite consistent. . .bruce lee never did much besides straight punches and side kicks. . .
I knew u would say that.so i already know how you think
This guy is awesome, but I still think the way Bruce Lee adapted and trained there's no way he would beat him.
BRUCE ALL THE WAY
Bruce is 135 lbs and never fought anyone. He never had not one single professional fight. There is no footage of him fighting yet you think he can cause Hollywood movies 😭
@@sitoperez3715 he was just a martial arts inventor, practitioner, philosopher, actor not a REAL fighter nor as good as in films. Complete bull-shit. I grew up as a kid watching his movies, emulating his style and thought he was "unbeatable" and a "grandmaster" above all prior to him and up til now I realised that martial arts and traditional dogmas and doctrines are useless in real combat form of fighting. Bruce Lee was just "good" and better amongst his students - everything else about him being superior is speculations, insinuations and hearsays....
@Vincent Preston ua-cam.com/video/aHRA0PIQeeY/v-deo.html not much but more than Bruce besides I'm smart enough to know they make weight classes for a reason. Not saying White is on a Jon Jones level
lol all you guys who never fought in your life man, you guys clearly don't understand how much of a difference weight makes in fighting competitions
I used to box, and I weighed in at 170 lbs. I once sparred with a 225 lb guy who had less sparring experience than I did and much worse technique, he pretty much only threw overhand rights and straight rights at me while I hit him with everything I had. We sparred for 7 rounds and I landed way more shots than he did, but he basically walked right through most of them, and the few times he caught me it really shook me. If this were a real fight without gear there's no doubt this guy would have knocked me out even with his weak skills. We'll never know who would win but you can't be serious is you think size doesn't matter, especially if you have never been in a fight, and this is a 100lb difference we're talking about.
Shit 20 pounds sometimes makes a difference. we're talking one hundred pound difference here with equal skill.
+dpillay009 That's why i'm saying Michael would knock his ass out.

“Showing off is the fool's idea of glory.”

“To tell the truth, I could beat anybody in the world.”

Amen a famous Bruce Lee quote nothing but Fools showing off.
Funny that Michael Jai White talked about Bruce Lee in the present tense as if he is still alive.
Michael respects Bruce Lee, he said it out of his own concept of always win. Same as our late Bruce Lee
Man, even Mike Tyson said size doesn't matter in a fight lol
Mike Tyson has a good balance between speed and mass. He was also not fighting guys 100 pounds bigger than him.
Size dont matter lmao yh u go try fight a giant...
Bruce lee cant take mike tyson punch
He means size doesnt matter when its a guy who is 5'9 225 lbs vs a guy who is 6'2 240 pounds.. But for fucks sake!!! a 135lbs man vs a 240lbs man (of Muscle!! not fat) fuck man. Mayweather vs Tyson.. size fucking matters.
U think Mayweather would beat Tyson? “Size don’t matter” right? lol
Those who speculate about Lee, seem to be forgetting, for all his talent, the man is dead and any agreement is mute.
Bruce is not only faster, he hits really hard. He trained for pure strength while not building size so he can keep his speed. He can kick you AND already retract the leg before you finish blinking. Everyone who eye witnessed him said he can do everything he is known for. And don't forget this was a time where he was very hated by Westerners and Easterners due to envy. But Not a single person from his time era dare came out and said he was fake. They know better then to fuck with him.
LOL The level of delusion surrounding Bruce Lee is hilarious. He was not a professional fighter. Stop it!
And That is on the "STRENGTH!!!!" BRUCE WAS THE BEST.
the main reason people respect bruce lee is that he ADMITS his limitation. he NEVER says he is god. watch his movie, learn his philosophy, he has shown thousands of times in his movie how to fight an opponent much bigger than him in LIFE-THREATENING scenarios! below are the methods:
1. kick him in the nuts
2. confuse him with fake punches and kicks
3. bite him in the legs
4. tear his chest hair off
he will turn DIRTY and NASTY when necessary. so rather than considering him a professional fighter, i would say he is a SURVIVOR. we are talking about real fight, not competition with a set of rules!
i don't think child knew professionally how to utiliise all his weight and muscles to throw out a punch. if u really practie kung fu or other martial arts, u know even western boxer will not ultilise all his muscles to give out a punch. so there's always a difference between child street fight and bruce lee's street fight
***** i'm not exaggerating bruce lee. i'm not overrating bruce lee. but i don't underestimate bruce lee. both extremes are not probable

Size matters when you are fighting humans amigo. Bruce Lee no es humano.
If I’m going to break it down. The only fighter on planet earth that I think would have a chance at beating Bruce Lee was Mike Tyson at his prime - in a no weapons fight.
Bruce was a master of trapping and direct attacks.
Tyson was a master of evasive entry with round attacks.
The evasiveness of Tyson would have made it near impossible to trap him since his defence was not with his hands. Tysons defence was only with movement.
When His hands were revealed - it was only to deliver a deadly blow.
I can’t believe I’m saying this but in a fist to fist fight - I don’t see Bruce beating Tyson.
But anyone else - the fight won’t last more than a minute. He would trap you and you will not be able to take his barrage of punches that will be coming at you like a Submachine gun.
Wow I just developed so much more respect for mike Tyson.
@Fred Forbes you think I’m young - thanks. There are many things you do not understand and you probably never will. It’s line saying a small bullet cannot kill an elephant.
@Fred Forbes these 3 art forms of which you speak are currently primitive still evolving and even now are not at the level that Bruce was soo many years ago. This is not about street fight or wealth. You simply cannot fathom what I’m trying to tell you. Ok currently Jackie chan is one of the best martial artists - Jackie said it was impossible to see Bruce’s attacks.
Samo Hung said - Bruce used to go from school to school and fight everyone usually except the teacher so as not to disrespect. A home raised fighter does not create his own artform. Even what you call mma was created by Bruce lee.
And mma today is still primitive and still evolving. Yea you were bouncing and street fighting for 100 years but a fight between you and Bruce would have taken like 20 seconds.
The fact that you are saying what you are saying tells me you don’t even know.
We are talking about principles and artform you are talking about size - for a true master - size is totally irrelevant.
I did wing Tsun for over 12 years, i did kempo jujitsu and I’m one away from black. It was when I tried to learn Silat that my mind opened as I was under the tutelage of a spiritual master and realised what true martial arts was. I immediately stopped training as I realised that as a Christian I could not partake in this.
So again like I said - you don’t even have an inclining of understanding what you are talking about.
After over 18 years of training - one day with this spiritual master changed my whole life. Just one day.
Let’s leave it there.
Lol at everyone in this thread….delusional Bruce Lee fan boys
Remember what Conor Said "Precision beats power timing beats speed". Bruce lee would beat the hell out of Michael.

Michael, I could say a million things but i'll just say this - Bruce was the reason you're relevant today. He was the reason martial artist got all the exposure. It's not about Bruce being able to beat everybody. It's about respect, which you obviously know nothing about. Pay credit and respect where it is due, like the thousands of fighters better than you who respect Master Bruce.
Bruce would destroy Michael. Size means nothing if you cant hit your opponent. Bruce Lee was so fast that he was nearly impossible to hit.
@Brick Schitthousedude I've fought guys bigger than me and won. Another internet thug lol.
@Brick Schitthouse so you say michael can defeat any one like Donnie Yen, Jet Lee, Jackie Chan, Chuck Norris, IP Man, Mas Oyama and so on. Because he has more weight among them ? I think you guys are delusional. Because you are comparing sports with martial arts where even the mind matters
Jon Samuel micheal Kai white literally addresses this in a vid and says Bruce lee was his role model....
@@AntonPerera Michael Jai white is a legit fighter, he did more tournaments than Joe Rogan and bruce lee. And all three are respected in the martial arts world.
Bruce Lee has beaten plenty of people with 100+ weight advantage.. What made Bruce so special was that yes.. In most situations size makes a great deal of a difference.. But Bruce had unparalleled speed, timing, and technique to make up for the shortcoming of size. What good is that 100 weight advantage if you can't land a blow?
+Eclipsen Gaming Come on maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan
My brother delivered flowers to bob wall, the big white dude in enter the dragon. Bob wall told my brother that Bruce literally kicked like a mule. The directors wife of entered the dragon touched Bruce lees arm and retracted in fright saying my god, it feels like warm marble. There are Korean soldiers that take bladed axes to their stomachs and don't bleed. The human body is capable of a lot. The great Miyamoto Musashi weathered extreme elements.
wow that's crazy, nice story man. But yea it seems like a lot of people underestimate/ don't understand the power of MMA and limits of the human body. Bruce Lee was one of a kind
+Eclipsen Gaming he was. His fastest reflexes were recorded at 5 hundredths of a second. He even said there people faster than him. It's just that he was more deceptive with his feints. If you look closely and in slo mo he'll pull off two or three feints before making contact in his films.
+Eclipsen Gaming exactly.. some say you can slow someones speed by hitting them body blows and some shit, but what if u can't hit your opponent??
I can beat Bruce Lee too...
He's dead, I win.
LOL this is so wrong..
BINGO!!! Best comment yet. LMAO
He's a well trained Martial artist who outweight Bruce lee by over 100 lb. There's a reason why they have different weight levels in MMA, boxing etc... Size does matter. It's simple physics.
+alan boardman he already has a well known name in Martial arts bro,not trying to be an ass,just stating facts...
alan boardman I'm a martial artists. Those who really are know what bruce is like being he is a kindred spirit they walk in the footsteps of. He trained all around the world, studied Muhammad Ali's boxing, fencing, wing chub, shaolin kung if I'm not mistaken, Japanese styles as well. He made his own fighting style. He accepted challenges from many ignorant belligerent ballroom brawlers that thought it wise to pick on those physically outclassed by them.
Bruce Lee can beat him from his grave.

+Husabceuoa Cieabcueoa no you stfu

+Katy Lee I agree 100% and yes the black guy is right, size does matter; that's why Bruce cut weight from 170 to 125 because being lighter with no fat and all muscle meant he could move faster than anyone else while still maintaining and incredible amount of power. For example: A bullet is super thin and light, but that's what allows it to move astonishingly fast, and we all know the formula for force right? Acceleration x Mass = Force so in essence the lighter a human frame is the faster it can accelerate which can lead to higher force being exerted on strike as long as the human frame is incredibly muscular for it's size, because we all know muscle weighs more than fat (mass). That black guy probably has like 10% body fat.
+Miles Hamblen big George Foreman was slower than all his opponents . Yet Big George Foreman defeated all his opponents except for Muhammed Ali. If speed was everything and strength mentioned nothing, Big George Foreman would have never beaten all those guys.
Legends never die! Bruce Lee is a legend, MJW is not!!!

Being in your feelings doesn't change facts.
You can't have it all, Michael Jai White. Are you talking about back in the
70's when no one but Bruce Lee knew anything about MMA? (Because he
basically created that). That would mean Michael Jai White wouldn't
know shit but basic karate. America didn't even know about Kung Fu yet.
So Bruce is basically everyone's teacher, show some freaking respect. A
teacher and a leader is always ahead of the student.
Bruce also indirectly created kick boxing in the US
Bro. No fighter is, never or never will be interested in Kung Fu.
@@tybiasbutler6745 because kung fu isnt fighting , its Chinese culture, there is martial arts to it but not entirely martial arts, so when it comes to just fighting, boxing or kick boxing is preferable because its designed in a way to use maximum potential by exerting minimum energy, dont get the 2 mixed, never has any Chinese person said kung fu is just for fighting
roronoa zoro ... I don’t give a shit.
@@tybiasbutler6745 refusing to accept knowledge probably explains why u stupid
Wow these comments are so funny. I wonder what people would do if Bruce were still alive and these two actually did fight each other in their primes and Michael managed to put Bruce on his back, then what? Just because Bruce was a great master, doesn't mean he can't be beat, he was human like the rest of us. He may have been a bit super human, but unfortunately his death proved that he was human. Bruce was a master of so many different disciplines, and he was such a great person as far as I've seen on t.v., but surpassing most in your craft, doesn't make you invincible. As history has proven over and over again, the best of the best have met defeat at some point in their lives and careers. No one has been or will ever be unbeatable, no matter how great they are in what they do. I think we call that perfection, and so far, no one has been proven to be perfect. Anything is possible, Bruce could've made one wrong move that Jai could've capitalized on and triumphed because of, or vice versa. Even though I feel jai is incorrect in saying he could beat Bruce due to size difference, I don't feel it would've been impossible for jai to beat him if they were to fight in their primes.
Lee was no master. He wasn't old enough for one, and he simply didn't do it long enough to be a master. Hell, he wasn't even certified to be teaching people. He didn't even have William, or Ip's blessing to be doing so, either...lol Lee was an actor dude, that enjoyed working out, and was NEVER a fighter outside of his films. His demo's and training video's CLEARLY show to even a blind man, that he wasn't anywhere near as good as his fanboys claim....I have seen green belts with better form, and more power than Lee...He couldn't even beat little 120 pound sopping wet Wong Jack. Lee never fought any real fighters in his life, and the few he was in were all bums, nobodies....Woopitty Dooo. White would fucking slaughter Lee. Lee couldn't even begin to hurt White. Not a chance.
but what evidence does mjw have to say that he can beat bruce lee? not that there's no chance but it shows his low iq to say that "size" is what matters most.. bruce lee might be too fast & skilled for a 200 pound guy like mjw.. but u never know who'd win, either one of them could win, but he sounded a lil too confident, thats the issue about this guy..
They're both Martial Artists. Michael Jai White is a Black Belt in 8 Martial Arts disciplines and has sparred with world champion Boxers and Mixed Martial Artists. Why would you think that someone with that kind of skill who is obviously strong and fit could not beat Bruce Lee? You're talking about the MMA equivalent of a Bantamweight fighting a Heavyweight. He could manhandle Bruce Lee and knock him out with one strike while Bruce would face enormous difficulty doing anything to hurt Michael Jai White.
Size kind of does matter; I'm not saying Bruce Lee would lose or win, but Bruce Lee did say that Muhammad Ali would beat him in a fight because he said look at the SIZE of my Chinese fist compared to boxer Muhammad's fist. Either way, my full respect to Bruce and Michael Jai
I think what Bruce said about the SIZE of his hand was a joke not real because I or my friends sometimes said like Bruce to the people who we are sure to beat too. I a new documentary " I am Bruce Lee ", one witness told Bruce intended to fight with Ali one day ( it prove Bruce was not really afraid of Ali), but unfortunately he passed away.
"Everybody says I must fight Ali someday," Bruce said. "I'm studying every move he makes. I'm getting to know how he thinks and moves". Bruce Lee knew he could never win a fight against Ali "look at my hands", he said."That's a little Chinese hand. he'd kill me"
ninjanizzle You are wrong or misunderstanding. What Bruce said was just a joke. When I watch new documentary " I am Bruce Lee ", one of his friend asked Bruce " Why did you have so many Mohamed Ali video and watch his video so many times ? ". Bruce answered " Because one day I would fight him ". He meant he can fight Ali with boxing, when he is ready. He watch Ali 's fight in order to get familiar with Ali's style as you wrote "I'm studying every move he makes. I'm getting to know how he thinks and moves" and find a way to neutralise it. Bruce Lee defeated 3- time Hong Kong Boxing Champion in his fist time before. Bruce was a genius as many people witnessed. Ed Parker, the father of American Kendo Karate told " Bruce was the best martial artist I ever seen and he is one of 2 billion ". Others such as Jhoon Rhee ( Ali's master in Taekwando ) , Chuck Norris, Jim Kelly, Dan Inosanto, Louis Delgardo etc.....said similar. I think Ali, Tyson or anyone would dare not underestimate Bruce's ability in a boxing fight, otherwise they would be lost for sure
+Lap Vu according to u its a joke, and who r u? bruce never said it was a joke, so he was dead serious. u r assuming because u dont want to accept the truth. bruce knew size mattered. that documentary is on youtube here titled "2012 I Am Bruce Lee" so tell me what exact minute i can see his friend saying this? theres no way they would allow bruce lee to fight ali, he was way too small to face a heavyweight. a fight like that could end in a fatality. fights against fighters of equal weights have ended in deaths. he copied alis boxing because ali was 1 of the best boxers at the time, so who better to learn from? bruce lee defeated this so called 3 time high school boxing champ called gary elms, but if u look for any info on him u find nothing. no records, no interviews not even a single picture. i find that very strange. ali was an olympic boxing gold medalist, a high school tournament isnt worth spit compared to that. also hawkins cheung said he and bruce were using wing chun in the tournament, so their opponents cant have been highly skilled to lose to guys with no boxing experience. bruce lee has no official amateur boxing records to verify anything. ali does. watch the video titled "Bruce Lee, Ted Wong & Dan Lee Hitting Heavy Bag HomeFootage 1960's" on youtube. it should be obvious to u bruce doesnt have better boxing than the first guy on the bag. who trained bruce lee in boxing? even the best fighters had good trainers. go watch ali and tyson on the heavy bag, bruce cannot compare to that. bruce was not a professional boxer and he damn sure wasnt a heavyweight. for u to even think he would stand a chance against ali or tyson is highly delusional. that would be a mismatch of the highest order.
I can sense it as a joke and I strongly believe it's the truth. In my life, I met many people talk like what Bruce said as a joke. Bruce think size matter only when both have the martial art skill and speed. At the time of the boxing with Gary Elms, Bruce were only18 years old and not prepared well for that tournament. I accept that Bruce's boxing skill at the time were not well and he used Wing chun in the tournament. To learn that bad experience, Bruce study Ali's fight very carefully and copied Ali's boxing. It was true that Bruce admired Ali and thought Ali was 1 of the best boxers at the time, so Bruce learnt from Ali to prepare for the fight with Ali. I believe Bruce has the chance to beat Ali when he had more experience in boxing. He was faster than Ali and powerful enough to knock down Ali. If you look back at the Rio Olympic at the swimming event, a young man from Singapore beat Michael Phelp ( his idol ) in 200m butterfly ? The same thing happen I other sport like tennis. One young one came up like Roger Federer beat his idol Pete Sampras in 2001 Wimbledon and so on. I did not hear what you report in " I am Bruce Lee" I got a record and the photo of the tournament in Hong Kong. Bruce was a rarely genius and very fast learner and I am very sure he would be a threat to Ali and Tyson. I am sure that Ali and Tyson would not underestimate Bruce in a fight. Are you aware that Ali and Tyson respect and admire Bruce ? Bruce may have to fight other boxers ( assume 4 or 5 boxer from his weight division and up to higher division ) first to get experience as he have more experience than he would feel confident to challenge Ali or Tyson. Bruce would challenge Ali or Tyson when he feel his boxing skill would be well enough to beat them at the right time.
No one in this world beat bruce lee..he was a human with superpowers..he break your all bones in one second
He has very little grappling knowledge how would he do that? BJJ allows you to do that.
Well, appearances can be deceiving... Just because you're bigger than Bruce, doesn't mean you can beat him... Mind over matter.
ignorance is bliss
From the information that's available, Bruce Lee is the reason why so many martial artists have made it, both in the sport and in movies. He cannot really be compared to these others. He studied and mastered all sorts of fighting styles, technics, and was a freak when it came to his craft, including his workouts. He wasn't the biggest on the block, but was fast as lightning, had very powerful punches and kicks, much more powerful than guys twice his size. I think for anyone to be even close to his abilities, that person must have crazy OCD for winning, but also masters of their expertise. Most all-time greats (I.e. Tyson, Ali, Jordan, Gretzky, Pele, etc.) in any sport or other profession (I.e successful Entrepreneurs, best Doctors, best any type of Worker...) for that matter, have this characteristic that is similar to Bruce. He was also intelligent to figure out that he could make WAAY more money displaying his skills in front of a camera. Search interviews with many who learned from him, trained with him, or sparred with him, and I think most (if not all) will tell you Bruce Lee was "the real deal..." Additionally, in Bruce's day the performance enhancing products that many athletes have been using was not available. I don't think we'll ever see another Bruce Lee.

Bruce Lee was the fastest. And was not your average man. One kick to Mike's head or chest, that he wouldn't see coming, would put Mike in hospital.
@Clench Chad Man
Are you saying that the testimony of James Colburn, Jim Kelly, Joe Lewis, Jackie Chan and other martial arts experts don't matter ?
Nevertheless, Bruce Lee has demonstrated his ability by giving exhibitions. Plus his films, which show his technique and speed, reveal him to be unmatched.
Bruce Lee's heaviest weight was 160 Ibs. His lightest weight was 132 Ibs (Enter the dragon). Shortly afterwards he became ill. The 160 Ib Bruce Lee would give Michael Jai White a run for his money - in the cage and on the street. Remember when 180 Ib Royce Gracie was beating up all them 220 Ib guys in the first two years of MMA / UFC ? Or when Rocky Marciano (185 Ibs) was knocking out all them 210 - 220 Ib boxers ? Size is a lot but it's not the be all and end all.
u are correct. Amen brotha

Mathew Stovell...remember when Royce Gracie fought Matt Hughes in the same weight class and got the crap kicked out of him...hmmm...Royce was fighting fighters with NO Jui Jitsu capabilities that's why he won...if he stood with them he would have lost for sure...MMA fighters nowadays would have no problem with Royce Gracie at his best.

Bruce Lee had plenty of fights all over China to be well known in fighting circles off camera. How many real fights has White had to be recognized as a real fighter?
+scarred4evr03 Good point!
+scarred4evr03 He had to do a 20man kumite to get his black belt in Kyokushin Karate. Which is 20 1min fights in a row against Black Belts. Which is about 20min more fighting than Bruce Lee has been involved in, because he's never been in a fight.
+scarred4evr03 I love how you added the "off camera" part to ensure that you don't actually have to provide any evidence for your lie
Lie huh...Chinese fighters constantly take on movie stars especially during those days. Mr. White is obviously a talented martial artist however, he'll have to do much more than fight his classmates for a minute per to impress the Chinese people! There are plenty of Shaolin and wing chun masters that would gladly allow White an audience. American movie stars love talking but too pretty to fight skinny hungry Chinese men. If he fought in China he would be much more than " Great White lie".
"Shaolin and Wing Chun masters" lmfao. Try and provide one piece of evidence that Bruce Lee had "plenty of fights around China". Go on just one.
Bruce Lee was more of an actor than a fighter. Michael Jai White has I think 7 different black belts and is more of a fighter than an actor. Michael is 6 ft tall, Lee is 5 ft 7 so Michael has a longer reach than Lee. Michael outweighs Lee by around 100 lbs. Although Lee is fast Michael is not slow. Michael is bigger and would last longer than Lee. Lee's famous punches and stuff wouldn't be effective against Michael because he isn't gonna stand there and let him hit him. Overall if a fight were to occur between the two it's obvious that Michael would win.
AJ Wash u no nothing about martial art u just got 2 shay something michael is good but bruce lee is the greatest ever and no one would no who will when u guys only saying that because bruce lee is dead

bruce lee hater
AJ Wash Bruce Lee can backup his reputation, although it is exaggerated a lot. Bruce Lee did not master one single martial art, he incorporated many styles into his martial arts. Bruce would qualify to be black belt, but just because you have a black belt, it does not mean you are a good fighter. He even if invented one Jeet Kune Do, which is effective in a real fight, although Bruce Lee is not limited by it.
Bruce Lee was familiar enough with the major martial arts, to fight against them, and also to use them in his advantage. Bruce Lee IQ is above Michael Jai White, even in regards to fighting. Bruce Lee does not even require the upper hand to win, he is fully able to customize his method to win the fight.
This does not mean Michael Jai White is just Hollywood, but the truth is he has not shown he is able to fight the caliber of a fighter, such as Bruce Lee. Even by this short video, he relies upon weight as his upper hand, but that is counter acted easily by a skilled fighter.

um he lost to a guy with less skill but a 12" reach advantage
Disagree with calling him a 'small heavyweight'. At around 220lbs he wasn't small by any standards, most of his opponents were round his weight. Yeah, he gave up height and reach but size amasses to more than just that. Hence why we have weight classes, not height or reach classes.

Bruce Lee can Kick a punching back twice Michael's weight and bust the entire contents all over the ground. I dont think size really plays a part here.
+Shane Rhabb and yet the evidence shows bruce lee to be a complete amateur on a punchbag /watch?v=aObGLTfJa1w
Stupido feckoff if you know anything about punching techniques how Bruce Lee is punching is Wing Chun Style. He does not fully rotate the palm facing down at the end of the punch. Wing Chun has always been his base of fighting where he reverts too. While the Wing Chun style does not have the same reach as boxing or other forms of fighting the snap is much greater and with the mechanics of this style more punches can be thrown in succession without telegraphing so much. Bruce was no armature at punching, he just didn't punch like everyone assumes one should punch.
only his palm position is 'wing chun style'. He is not using the retarded wing chun pigeon toed stance, or the retarded wing chun centre line. But he still ends up looking like a C class amateur.
I thought you said he could destroy a punchbag?
Stupido feckoff I didnt say anything about destroying a punching bag. I'll let you re-read what I said if you can. All I know is when bruce was alive nobody was talking as much trash as they do now. There is something to be said about a guy who literally had to engage in real fights all the time because had that meany haters and he beat them all.
"Bruce Lee can Kick a punching back twice Michael's weight and bust the entire contents all over the ground."

Bruce Lee was first a martial artist, then an actor.
TheEternalGamer that is incorrect. bruce was an actor since his infant years, he became a martial artist in his teens.
Bruce will fuck him up.. he might be a smaller dude but he is fast as hell.. the bigger you are the slower you are, its common sense, it don't matter about the size..
You are stupid if you think size doesn't matter even though bruce lee was fast as fuck mjw is one of the fastest big guys ever, clearly you don't know what he's capable of.
One thing that hasn't really been considered here is that if Micheal Jai White was around at the time of Bruce Lee he'd probably of been smaller than Bruce Lee (because of a lack of sports/nutritional supplements), also lacking in the physical abilities of him. And If Bruce Lee was around in this era he could of conceivably made better use of sports nutrition to be as strong as Micheal Jai White. So even Micheal Jai White's argument about size is wrong even if you take away the fact that Bruce Lee had created his own art before 26, which would probably adapt to the regimented arts that Micheal has stubbornly stuck too.
+Sam Mathews Ok, we feel you on that!
No offense but he's a black man and blacks on an average don't need supplements to be big.
That's the most moronic generalization I've ever heard. It's got nothing to do with being black/white/Asian etc, it's about your genetics and how you are brought up. P.s: Saying no offense doesn't mean I'm not going to take offense, I find your view deeply offensive and Is one best left in the last century...
+Sam Mathews
Michael Jai White would still be the same height as he is without supplements and as someone who has been training in martial arts a long time it is likely he would have a big frame too to support such activity. However, in my opinion, Bruce Lee would out speed him in every aspect, and if you can imagine what a kick from Bruce lee would be like (surely rock solid, plus Lee's force behind it which as we know, a one inch punch from him carries serious pounds of force) to any part of Jai's body it would surely cause as much damage if not more than anyone twice Lee's size. Because his body was so conditioned his attacks would much more felt, even if Jai was more powerful
Force, plus lightning speed and rock solid limbs = Bruce Lee as winner
-My opinion
+Sam Mathews
Most Asians do have less density in their muscles and bones and have a much smaller frame. Maybe that is what he meant
Size does matter WHEN YOU CONNECT, in terms of power, but what makes you connect your strike is speed, footwork and above all, your mind.
True, but Bruce wasn't your average feather/lightweight, he could hit as hard as a heavyweight.

@@pauloskidane2819 The idea of Bruce Lee has been romanticized over the years. I bet none of these fools have ever watched his movies
Too many butthurt Bruce Lee fans. I mean to the point that they are trying to calculate and theorize how the fight would go. You people need to relax. Bruce Lee isn't fucking Superman and Michael Jai White is allowed to speak his peace.
Incessant Wake people are only choosing Bruce lee because of his fights in his movies. They don't even know Michael Jai White background. They wanna write and talk about what they heard. Lol I agree with you man.
K
sorry mate lee was a superhuman.
RAY RAY but a little hash killed him? yeah real super
Still supa
I can't compare bluce Lee to any one coz master lee he was like amoving wind, he was not just a great martial artist but he was even a philosopher
Mostly everyone who says they can beat anyone gets their asses handed to em
I wish Bruce Lee was here to hear him say that .
And he would agree
Size Does Matter In A fight But When dealing with Marital art That changes things. Bruce lee Thats a different story
Whoever says michael would win has never been in a fight in there entire life. Still love Michael though.
Yall do remember when the UFC started and there was no weight match.SIZE DOES NOT MATTER!
***** have you watch the start of UFC because it sounds like you have no idea?!?!?!
fuck that mothe fucker u you never beat bruce lee in your dreams bruce lee always be history no matter what but jet li would fuck you up o what abot jackie chan
***** SO LET ME GET THIS RIGGT......YOU SAID PRETTY MUCH THAT THE BIGGER MAN WILL WIN RIGHT.BUT IN SOME OF THE FIRST UFC FIGHTS THE SMALLER MEN WAS WINNING AND THERE WHERE NO WEIGHT LIMIT TO WHO FIGHTS WHO.SIR WHAT YOU SAID MAKES NO FUCKIN SINCE.NOT ONLY DOES THIS APPLY TO THE UFC BUT EVERYDAY LIFE.SMALLER MEN HAVE BEAT MEN MUCH BIGGER THAN THEM OVER THE TIME OF HISTORY.SO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING MAKES NOT A BIT OF SINCE!!!THIS IS FACTS!!!!!PROVEN FACTS!!!
***** like I said HISTORY HAS PROVEN THIS NOT ME AND NO ONE CAN ERASE HISTORY!!!
But they lose right and to a smaller man right fighting is fighting.Now think if Bruce Lee was still alive there's no telling to what he would know and that's where everyone gets lost at he was ahead of his time then and I'm pretty sure he would be today as well!
We can all agree that Bruce Lee is faster, stronger and overall is supernatural he's not human
+Nazy Naz Did you actually just say lee is stronger than michael?
+ Nazy Naz if Bruce is so supernatural he would still be alive come on with the BS
omnitrix152 Core strength? Yes but Michael Jai White is stronger than Bruce overall. If both were to fight it'll be a good fight to watch but I just think Bruce has more fighting experience than Michael
+Edward McNeil His legend will live on forever.
for the people that think that White will stand a chance vs Jun Fan Lee (Bruce Lee) *Do you know anything about JKD or Wing Chun or Bruce lee's tendom* This man has one of the best techniques ever and he is lightning fast be aware of that.
_M_I_T_I__N-M- Damn Right!! 👍🏽
Lmao answer this question do you ever see Wing Chun in UFC? No because it's useless
wing chun only works vs asian martial arts when nobody tries to go to the ground
Let me make it clear no one in this world can beat Bruce Lee in a fight.
So true!
Maybe in his movies. They were pretty cool. But irl? There is plenty of people who would whoop the living sh out of him
@@Redbullshit.50 ikr they so impressionable they watch captain America and probably come out saying Chris Evan could beat up Mike Tyson
Size is not everything.
No one who wears diamond earings could've even touched Bruce Lee.
people dont understand size only gives a weight advantage. every body type is different and give different advantages. micheal jai white is a big and very athletic man but we have to remember bruce lee would spent al day training. he found comfort in it. he was without a doubt the fastest puncher to ever live and had so much power he would send men flying with a punch that had barely any space to gain power imagine his real punches. im pretty sure i heard he would need to train with a punching bag made with metal because any other would break or sumn like that
These comments are crazy. He's a hundred pounds heavier. There is no way Bruce would win. Study fighting instead of using your emotions.
MJW is ok but Bruce Lee is way beyond his category. Wow!
If he said size matter go fight pac man he only talk shit when the person already dead
There’s a lot smaller guy in ufc boxing. Try that see what happens
Gwen Kearney lol are u a god knows the futures ? Speed it’s everything learn it plus Bruce it’s 💪🏼
Gwen Kearney mjw can’t even beat Pac-Man lol
Gwen Kearney fingers jabs into your eyes it’s over lol
He disrespected THE LEGEND HOW DARE YOU.
Enter the Dragon time
Tell him go fight manny Pac-Man he will be the spawn in real life lol
When u disrespectful nobody respect you
He didn't disrespect anyone.
Michael Trumph if we are talking about Physics he did win but who would know what is going to happen so that’s his own personal opinion.
No matter how much you train Michael you'll never beat Bruce Lee because of he's incredible speed.
But Bruce lee was not a Fighter. Also Chinese didn't discover Martial acts it was a Indian brown guy who thought Martial acts to the Monks.
Bruce lee was an Actor
@@shivamrawat7572 Bruce Lee is like the biggest cult ever those people are clueless
U don't know the truth
@@shivamrawat7572 Bruce Lee learned from IP man whom taught wing chun and was regarded a Chinese hero for fighting the Japanese his first famous student was Bruce Lee way before his "actor career" try again in your 10.000th life homeboy
It's insane how many people are brainwashed into thinking bruce lee is some kind of great fighter. He trained, that's about it
"You really are a funny guy"
This guy deserves a lot of respect. He takes amazing care of himself and he certainly can walk the walk. But Bruce Lee had the power of a heavy weight and that’s documented among many fighters, heavyweights and others. I’ve seen how fast M.J. White is and I’ve seen Bruce lee’s speed, and Bruce owns speed. Bruce is lightning and could kick and retract before MJW could react. The other intangible is Bruce’s chi. He could move a man 10’ with the force of his punch from just a few inches away. 140lbs vs 225lbs. Typically you would say the 225 pound man has the distinct advantage. But Bruce Lee was not just a normal man, his mental and physical force was unparalleled regardless of what Michael Jai White says. Size only matters when you let size matters. Remember the old adage: Don’t judge the size of the dog in the fight, judge the size of the fight in the dog.
Well said, if size was everything than shaq is the greatest fighter ever
I wonder if he still feels that way about Bruce Lee today, or did he come to his senses and realize, "hey, I said something stupid."
I can beat Bruce Lee too... if he let me ahahaha
Amuana Gonmei good luck with tho delusions.
If you ever been in a street fight you should know size matter it doesn't always mean the bigger guy going to win but it means he have a better advantage but if you ever been in a real fight you know size Matters
Michael can't beat Tony jaa 😁 Bruce Lee will kick him out
2:27 For those interested to get to the point
Thank
You
He'll never beat Bruce Lee in his dreams
Forgetting he's a 100 pounds heavier; Fighters get better with time, MJW would beat him. Bruce Lee was a good amateur for his time.
A hundred pounds heavier means that you are a hundred pounds slower against a man that can break a bone or two, with just one blow. That you probably couldn't predict, or see coming.
Bruce lee would throw 10 side kicks before michael would even say bruce’s full name
Bru-
@Brick Schitthouse bruce laa fan look like delusional for me
No record whatsoevrr n fanboy claim he the best..hahaa
rarity6 No bruce lee would not kill this dude. Bruce lee would get destroyed by any decent mma fighter and that’s a fact.
@@supergangstar1234 bitch please...you say an mma fighter would destroy Bruce lee is a fact??...you should lay off that weed lad
Keep dreaming delusional fanboy.
You will lose (Ivan Drago voice)
"Bruce would break you" (Ivan Drago again...ehehehehe)
If he dies.....he dies(better Ivan quote)
This is that Connor Mcgregor attitude and we all know he got beat buy an old man
Connar literally said that Bruce lee could whoop him
@@wammygames7627 Conor and Bruce Lee are pretty much the same size AND he was trying to be respectful. Michael Jai White on the other hands is bigger than both of them combined WITH the skill to back it up. He'd wreck them both at the same time.
@Al Marcel Lol proof?
@@Smorgasvord Proof?
@@wammygames7627 how the fuck could I provide you proof? Its called having common sense.
The BruceLee fans will never draw any comparison between White and Lee in anyways. Because there is no one is good enough to compare to Lee. -Peace
“Showing off is the fool's idea of glory.”

He is not showing off. He speaks the truth, but people are blind.

“To tell the truth, I could beat anybody in the world.”

I don't agree with this!
+ninjanizzle did he really say that?
