Mike Tyson vs Bruce Lee

quote from the other thread

Hmm... an Actor vs the best fighter of our generation. I can see how this can be tough decision. Or hear is an even tougher one: A prime Mike Tyson vs Sylvester Stalone

I believe the post was "Bruce Lee Vs Manny Pacquiao" Lance. So let me re phrase what you said. "One of the greatest boxers in our generation with hands only, vs a man that is a pure street fighter, naturally a bigger man, that can curl 80 pound dumbells, do 2 fingered one hand push ups, and widly regaurded as one of the baddest real life A$$ kickers of all time." Study the life of Bruce Lee before you make insulting comments like this!

I kinda hate this comment. If we take his point of view, it's almost like anyone who beat tyson at arm wrestling could beat him, or like anyone who run faster than Mayweather Jr. will be able to avoid any of his punches (Yes I'm being sarcastic, but you get the point).

Physicals Feats are "not" a way to judge someone's ability to fight for God sake.

I never said Physical Feats meant everything in a fight, but they are deffinitly the most important in a fight. (Being in shape that is). I'm kinda confused about which post to respond to,tyson or Pacquiao? I agree that if Tyson connected cleanly to Lee it would be lights out, I just dont think he would connect. Theres a reason there is a seperation between the sports of MMA and Boxing. I don't think the best in one sport can beat the best in the other. I take it that these fantasy bruce Lee vs fights were if the 2 bumped into each other on a back alley and didnt like the way the other looked at them. To respond to your post, "Having gloves in a boxing ring with hands only is not a way to judge someones fighting ability either." For Goodness sakes have you watched Kimbo Slice? He is the prime example. He fought only with his hands on youtube and when he comes to MMA he gets embarresed because he wasn't seasoned in the whole game of a street fight! (By the way, I am not a Meat head MMA fan, but I can respect their talents.) I dont' really want to use a washed up James Toney as an example but he was younger than Couture, and he couldnt last one round. I love Boxing but respect both sports but the facts are that MMA is a much more realistic street fight setting and If you put Bruce Lee in the Octagon I think he beats Pacquiao without breaking a sweat and takes a long two rounds to get past the weight issue with Tyson, but still puts him away. Even tho small Bruce Lee was a physical specimen and until someone could deal with that speed they would have extreme problems. Sorry for the long post.

P.S I'm gonna go Friggin Postal on the next person that says Bruce Lee was just an actor!
