Yeah but I heard an unsourced quote from an internet person that Lee could kick faster than the eye could see. That seems like a pretty legit advantage.

mike tyson probably punches faster but bruce lee knew a better variety of martial arts whereas tyson can basically just do the one thing so i think lee would win

Lee said boxers were dangerous since they just focused on knocking people the gently caress out. My money is still on Lee though.

Ali Vs. Lee

That's the fight I want to see. I'd put money on Ali though.

I'm sort of channeling a thread from like three or four years ago, in which someone said that a blow to the head hurts, no matter who you are. Mike Tyson, thousandTime Heavyweight Champion of the World, would be totally useless if you got kicking involved.

i don't know much about lee but wasn't he mostly an actor? like how many people did he literally fight in his life while tyson did nothing but be in real fights as a living and was super good at it

It would be unfair to Lee to just make it a straight up boxing match. Let's say it's no holds barred.

Fei Long vs Balrog is 5-5 or 6-4 depending on who you ask. It's possible for Tyson to win but he probably has to work harder for it than Lee.

Yes, according to one of Bruce Lee's books.

Bruce Lee emphasized the importance of punching over kicking as it doesn't put you as off balance and allows you to more quickly strike and maneuver.

Probably not. For the privilege of getting retarded they also earn millions of dollars so hopefully they'll die of an overdose or from super hooker aids or whatever.

Just not this year..

Mike Tyson probably had 100 pounds of pure muscle on Lee. He was a professionally trained athlete and among the best fighters of all time. I have a hard time believing that Lee could even hurt Tyson, let alone win a fight. Literally nobody beat Tyson in his prime. He was 37-0 with before his first loss and 33 of those wins were KO or TKO.

Well, Bruce Lee is dead and Tyson isn't so I guess Tyson wins by default.

I don't really understand, then. It's clear to me that Bruce Lee would beat Mike Tyson in a NHB throwdown. But if your're just keeping things to punching then it seems like Tyson would have a clear advantage.

How though? Some martial art move that breaks Tyson's leg before he punches Lee or what?

yeah if it was sport fighting rules (no eyes, balls etc.) I'd say tyson but if you're allowing them to do any hosed up poo poo they want I'm not sure
