I just have no idead and that all bruce Lee hype ended long before 90's when i was born, thats why im asking.
He not looking like much of a fighter in the videos, so i thought he might be just a scum artist.
he got fraud checked as soon as he got to the USA. He DID popularize the concept of MMA but that was because he got absolutely shit stomped by boxers, wrestlers, jiu jitsu gays ect. He realized kung fu was dog shit and had to adapt. But that's why he started learning all the western fighting arts.
ah yes, like american karate and canadian tai kwon do.
some miserable stinking ghetto favela larpers didn't invent anything apart from ramming their faces into sweaty men's crotches.

ju jitsu is japanese.
self promoting favela monkeys pushed it like they push drugs, and their story is full of lies and fakery.
like I said, america karate exists, but I wouldn't ever say it is a 'western' martial art. it's karate, japanese.
if a pack of stunted apes start shooting each other with bamboo blow darts, then I'll accept that as a South American martial art.

If you wanna be like that Jiu Jitsu is just a derivative of sambo, which predates it, and sambo is just a derivative of pankration which predates both of those. Which means it's heart and soul is greek
back then kung fu was the closest thing to mma, moron.
technically bruce lee did mma since he created his own style called Jeet Kune Do by mixing different martial arts.
compared to his peers at the time not at all.
He tried to move on from the silliness of eastern martial arts and his philosophy is relevant in the contest of martial arts even today. There's a reason many regard him as a pioneer of mma
This is an important point. Eastern martial arts were indeed fricking stupid and fake at the time, but he made a conscious and concerted effort to try and develop a system that actually works. Now compared to what we know now would he just Michael Jordan over everyone in the UFC effortlessly? No, of course not. But being willing to get shittalked by all of China just to try and develop something that wasn't fraudulent was a huge deal at the time and helped move the field forward.
It's either he dabbed on China or he is a "chink" himself and therefore was a "fraud". No matter what your opinion on the Dragon, you have to showcase a stance against China.
Look I frickin love Chinese history and think some parts of China are rad, but martial arts was genuinely a joke for hundreds of years and is only just now starting to regain some semblance of credibility. Chinese Kung Fu actors were and are amazing but you gotta call a spade a spade sometimes, China had been happy to coast with martial arts being smoke and mirrors to the Western world as being an actual effective thing for a long time before Bruce came around
No. It's just midwit redditors trying too hard to look smart that say he was just an actor. He was a world class athlete and phenomenal martial artist, and his martial arts philosophy was way ahead of his time. He was basically advocating for MMA 30 years before MMA even existed, and probably would have went further down that path in his own training if he hadn't died so young. Contrary to popular belief, Bruce actually did train grappling, and acknowledged its usefulness after getting manhandled by Gene Lebell. This is the reason that the opening fight in Enter the Dragon had grappling in it. He was also aware of Muay Thai to some extent due to his filming in Thailand, which is rather impressive, because that shit didn't really become well known until a decade after his death, at least. He was undeniably influential in the earliest foundations of MMA, along with, of course, the Gracies (who made a more practical contribution than a philosophical one like Bruce did).
>never fought
He was his high school boxing champion, fought in street fights (basically gang violence), took challenges from random morons on set, fought Wong Jack Man, sparred with champion karate guys. He fought plenty. He just wasn't competing. There's a difference.
Just because your riced up civic is fastest in your town doesn't mean you have shit to say at a formula one race.
There is no proof whatsoever that he was a very great fighter, surely he was good but so are millions of people.
true. which is also why no-contact sports point 'fighters' like charles norris are just guys doing a little sports hobby and have never been in a real fight.

exactly. which is why all the no-contact competition sports gays from the 70s/80s in the US are thought of so highly by the same ones that think wrestling is real and follow all the drama plots.
They weren't real fights, like MMA. Where you can win just by leaning on an opponent without even attempting to hurt them. Where title fights are contested by punching air for 25 mintues. And blocking knees with your face default defense, if your opponent knocks you out, they lose.
Real hardcore fighting for real hardcore fans.
he lost a lot of fights so he had to start learning early mma concepts but he still got his shit rocked. I mean think about it, he was like 90 pounds and a manlet. Realistically you can't do much like that
>the scene was meant to be funny
It was literally because Tarantino thought Bruce Lee was arrogant in real life which he wasn't.
Lee said the exact opposite and Tarantino, being American, didn't bother to read anything
I can barely remember the plot of this movie. The most memorable scene in it is a random fight that exists to insult Bruce Lee. Tarantino used to be a good director.
tarantino is a butthurt homosexual with an extremely fragile self esteem.
look at how he reacts to criticism in interviews, throws a fit and starts swearing. look also at him using a fake Black voice when talking with Blacks.
pathetic.
he was bragging about learning "eagle claw style" while making his hack ripoff second hand martial arts films. he's a meme
They aged not so well. But they were the first to introduce those tropes to cinema, so it's understandable. Bruce Lee was the best martial artist however.
imho they aged better than tarantino movies
I used to love them but now when I see them I can't take them seriously, don't know why, maybe it's because they are overacted, artificial, seems like tarantino tries too hard to make his movies BADASS, dunno
Why would that moron admire Cassius Clay? He ruined boxing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcHQkxs97aM
And changing his name, without even realizing who the person he was named after was. Pure ignorance.

He got easily punked, robbed, and duped by the Nation too. Was a stupid nog.

That's how regular humans look. What you see now in movies are roided apes, with the exception of great Christian "The Body" Bale.

But why did he never fight if he was so good?

Yes there i a large difference.

More of a distribution of the concept/marketing. It is a sign of how unhistorically people think when they call this Brazilian jujutsu.

Ironically I'm a fan of both Tarantino and Lee but this was just Tarantino being an american moron
Tarantino has forgotten more than you know, chink
nobody wanted to talk about how Chuck Norris would've chinned him irl
I can barely remember the plot of this movie. The most memorable scene in it is a random fight that exists to insult Bruce Lee. Tarantino used to be a good director.
wrong the most memorable scene was brad pitt driving around
Not surprising you didn’t appreciate the film if you’re a moronic plotgay that can only think in those confined terms.
The movie was a boring piece of shit. Unless you like people smoking in cars, driving around listening to shitty oldies. That was half the movie.
Better than nearly anything else released that decade, cope.
