Bruce Lee Vs Manny Pacquiao

[AdamGB]

My money is on Bruce Lee.

He could make Manny stand with his stance completely front on, put a chair behind him so that he can't move his back leg out and then knock him off balance by pushing him backwards an inch or two.

Sorry... I typed that wrong... what I meant to say was that Bruce Lee could generate so much force with only a one inch punch that he'd knock Manny over...



there is a reason you will never see footage of this being done when

a) the guy being hit is in a martial arts stance (ie a boxing stance(

b) he doesn't have a chair behind him

Anybody who can look at the feet in this video (ignore the upper body) and then choses not to see what is going is is a fanboy!

that one inch punch is bullshyt. its more of a push than a punch.

Jeet kune do seems to do just fine in the octagon , I saw a fast ko by one just last night on best ko's. A double knee to the chin left right leap.Forget the guy already but they introduced him as a Jeet kune do practitioner.

There is a jealousy toward favored styles, that's really quite strange, its like trying to prove someone wrong in one situation automatically makes your style dominant and correct. It just isnt so.

Think: if a fighter stays on his toes and another is a competent front kicker, leg kicker, sweeper; which one on average is likely to be going down with the added reach in leg contact being first before contact arm range?.

Think again : if a fighter is only into wrestling grappling and leans forward into a guy who is on his toes who can move and bang like a boxer in perfect timing (whos going down this time around).

Then think no rules, bare fists being outreached by fingers into eyes and legs involved first for added reach. the dude who makes a fist is out reached in two ways and his eyes are going to be watering at the very least.

Different fight rules suit different styles.

Its one tool for one job / one tool for another,

Ya just have to eventually get over being 'a real tool' for just one job.

i don't want to sound like a fanboy or anything. i used to practice JKD which got me to try out other arts, including boxing. it's my way of, spiritually speaking, taking a path to the truth. study the art as a whole, deviate from it and study aspects individually, then returning to the whole in anewer perspective. anyway, that's a whole different story.

my point for replying to this post about the one inch punch is that he didn't do it in his demos to show that "he just needs a punch to knock you down." that wasn't the point. he was trying to demonstrate how a punch should come from the ground up and you had to put your hip into it. he was showing how not to do an arm punch.

and to the ones saying that all he did were flashy moves in his movie. that's true. even he said it himself that what he does in his movies are flashy and that if he got in a real fight, it wouldn't look like that. he said it was gonna look ugly and not flashy at all because he was going to do all means necessary to leave unharmed.

[AdamGB]

Yeah, at the most its a demonstration of stance and balance versus no stance and no balance. It is not a physically impressive act of power, as it is seen by most lee fanboys.

("omg he could liquify your sternum with a 1 inch punch!!" um, no... He couldn't)

Cocking the wrist and firing it off that way onto the end of the movement; Bruce got that from the Wing Chuns Bil Gee form, the final form you learn. "finger thrusting form" . Its quite deadly when you hit the soft spots on someone, the spots with no muscle behind them.

the 1 inch punch or the finger thrust has been tested in the tv show sports science. it generated very little power.

Did Bruce Lee demonstrated it himself?

i got things messed up i think it was on mythbusters. but sports science did measured various types of punches though.

going back to the 1 inch punch, it looked really impressive if you see it for the first time. but him standing straight up plus messing with his brain by putting a chair behind him was actually the major reason why it looked like a strong punch.

you guys know how they sell powerbands? its pretty much the same trick.

i do know bruce trains hard and perfected his martial art cause he wants to be the best. no doubt about that but the 1 inch punch is just an illusion.

it doesn't matter, if I was to stand next to my bed (with both of my legs touching it) and get my grandma or my little sister to stand in anything even CLOSE to a boxing stance with their hand an inch away from me...

All they would have to do is quickly lean the weight of their upper body an inch or two past my chest and I would trip on to the bed.

PARTY TRICK

Finger strike is where it was all born from. Its utterly Useless in gloves and is used more to get someone off your ass if they are hanging off you. If used as an open palm straight into the face is actually better than the fist in my mind for that range anyway, but used with the right technique in the exact right moment as the original toe to fingers power as you move: then your eyes will be hanging off my fingers or your aorta blood flow will be mixing with your jugular blood flow or your exphixoid will will be piercing your lower heart chamber. There's a few applications and your not going to use them unless outnumbered or going for total vengeance and jail term.

Bruce Lee invented Jeet Kune do as an extension and a open path to lead on from the stilted traditional wing chun, there are Jeet kune do practitoners in MMA and they do very well. Bruce got picked on in Hong Kong when going back there because of his acting roll in the green man etc. He then went to Yip Man with William Cheung to learn Wing chun to protect himself on the streets when in Hong Kong. Which they both had to do back then.

They are both un liked in traditional Wing chun circles because of their adaptions to the tradition.

well then if you are going to kill someone by hitting then in the adams apple neck thyroid sternum or wherever pressure points. then do it with a karate chop or a proper punch. i mean it will definitely generate more power and most likely will kill your opponent quickly.

again i respect bruce lee's skills but the 1 inch punch is just an illusion.

It is, its a push with twist on the end. Im just saying where its from.

There are some men (not many these days who practiced iron palm they could push finger tips through some very tough objects. It (Iron palm training) used to go hand in hand with the Bill gee form. Im just sharing where he got the idea from.


Ive seen a mans face split wide open like a knife cut from a short snap from an iron palm trainee. So I view some of these posts as uneducated.
