Far fetched Thought:Could Bruce Lee have been a Lightweight Champ??

[JT Rock]

i think its true he may of had the fastest hands EVER.

Have you seen featherweight boxers(Pacquio) without their gloves on shadowboxing? Half of his movies Bruce used angles to make his punches look faster and he still looks slower than Pacquio or Mayweather do shadow boxing.

Again this a speculative thread not based on actual fact,you just like me cant say he could or would of done anything  this was designed to stimulate an intelligent conversation not a thread so people would  discredit and put Bruce down or Worship him...Stick to the format and the facts

You stick to facts... You are labelling him as tremendous power, and super quick hands, but its based on what you've seen. How many knockouts does Bruce Lee have? WHo has he foughten? I am only discrediting Bruce Lee when people say his the best fighter to ever live and that he is a god of martial arts because he wasn't a god.

Not taking the word God literally...But who is?? in the last 40-50yrs who has been better The point of JKD was to be profecient in all ranges combat and to be able to survive in any circumstance...

Look around you man his style is condusive to MMA isint it they can fight close range medium range,grappling range to be a complete fighter who can thrive in any circumstance

In whoever said Bruce was all about forms is BULLSHITE!!!!! Bruce was all about handling biz not just meditating under a waterfull...He was a non conformist and hated the politics in the martial arts community at his time.He was always being chastised and Attaked Literally by his own countryman for teaching the arts to us americans!!!!! He was constantly evolving up into his death and his ways are still evolving and being carried out thru his original students and proteges.....

Best way to put it "he planted a seed many years ago and has grown into the way martial arts are viewed and taught and done!!!! I am not talking about the way they teach at the YMCA,or the gross marketing of posers and diluted McDojo's that exist today

Back years ago Before there were law suits if you thought someones style was inferior to yours you would send a student or even go yourself and challenge in a real fight...Trust, Bruce was a real fighter and defended his Ideas he was a marked man,funny as that sounds but it's true
