If Bruce Lee was a boxer.....

[OCPancho]

hogwash he sparred with all of them

lewis still trying to sell his fighting systems in his old age

and wall stated a 300 lb bag not a 700 lb one

Well, according to Joe, Lee didn't.

Joe Lewis - I learn fast. I made black belt in one year in Okinawa in three different styles. I am a fast learning. I can get all your stuff in a matter of weeks, and I mean anybody who can fight. I worked with Bruce less than two years before we grew apart. We used to work together for 6 to 8 hours at a time. I would be at his house at one in the afternoon, and not leave until maybe ten that night. Is that one lesson? Bruce was not a fighter. He was an actor and a teacher. He was a great teacher.

And Lee was NOT A FIGHTER.

There are lots of stories about him having to fight on the set when he was in Hong Kong with lot’s of guys who came over to challenge him. Never lost a fight.

Lee kicking a very light bag .
Go ahead , argue he could kick a 300 lbs bag and kill it .

Yes.
He fought some extras in the set of ETD.
Bob Wall swears Lee fought 3 guys .
All Chinese extras .
You know, those fools who think their kung fu is great .
Except Lee already knew kung fu is worth sh8.

Sorry, not much accomplishments as those guys weren't really good .

And one story of him sparring with Trovador Ramos has many versions.
Ramos was a bad azz himself.

Dude, you can have confessions , more confessions, and more confessions, the video evidence shows he was not a better striker than most amateurs.
Go ahead, show me a video of him hitting that 75 lbs bag and tell me that he was even good as an amateur dude punching the bag.

Stop making stuff up. There were no COUNTLESS of people confessing they lost to Bruce Lee because Lee did not fight much.
Joe said he didn't even see him spar .

If that punch bag could talk im sure it would be saying ouch that hurt real bad. So enough talk of that one footage of him hitting heavybag.
Countless people have admitted sparring with bruce and being inferior. You can fill 1000s of pages with quotes and there are books upon books. The greatest testimonies of all time and your still trying to convince yourself there is mystery surrounding his ability to fight? Your punching way above your weight. There maybe mystery surrounding h ow tough his jaw was and people might wonder what happens when he takes a hard shot. But there's absolutely no mystery that Lee had no trouble whatsoever kicking backsides to kingdom come.
So stop trying to fool yourself your fooling noone

Right, you'd rather believe your " countless" of confessions.

While a video clearly proves he was an average amateur boxer at best .
And Joe Lewis said he never saw him spar.
And if you believe some leetardation stories, Lee knocked out Norris, Lewis and company .

Video shows there was nothing special in his hitting skills .
And he was one handed.

Bruce was fanatical about all forms of martial arts and the ability to amalgamate them organically. I doubt he’d just practice boxing, so he probably wouldn’t find himself boxing at the elite levels. He’d probably be more likely to fight in mma, but even then he didn’t care for competition or rules.

Yeah, the bag hurt .
Keep denying the fact that the video shows he did not have much punching power and snap.

And you fail to mention, in the 60's and 70's, martial arts was at their infancy in the US. So much of the stuff they practiced was just concept .
You move here, I move there, you do this , I do that .
Even world champions looked like sh8.

One can argue the first really great karate people were Joe Lewis and Benny the Jet Urguidez because they really fought full contact kickboxing . Benny fought Japanese and Muay Thai boxers .
While so many were stuck in point fighting and conceptual martial arts .

Lee was a hard worker and a student of the game, he understood fighting very well. There is no doubt that he could fight, but I hate when people ask how he would do against an elite boxer who actually fought his entire life. We have no idea how Lee would handle a punch and he was not a boxer. Now if he dedicated himself to the craft who knows, but that is just like asking if a top level boxer dedicated themselves to be a king fu master...

My thoughts exactly. That's why I hate questions like this.
