I don't want to sound like the ULTIMATE internet bad ass...but I'd feel confident fighting ANYONE who weighs what Bruce Lee weighed...especially with my wrestling background, which trumps his Jeet Kune Do, IMO. Wrestlers are the baddest motor scooters on the planet...Just wait until Brazil figures this out... Last edited by rico; 01-29-2014 at 10:48 AM.. |

depends on what kind of fight
You put them in a ring and the young Tyson wins. Not as much room to move, no weapons etc. In a no rules death match in the streets, then Bruce Lee.

And I'm certainly not carrying a flag for Bruce Lee..not for his character nor to being the best in karate of all time. Top 20 in the past 50 yrs probably. #1 not a chance just the most dramatized/commercial in modern times. |

You actually dont' get a sense of Tyson's Speed or head movement from that Vid because they are knockouts and he's in finishing mode.
My brother and I have been pretty much studying Boxers for the past week or so. Trying to see who the true Pound for Pound best fighter was at his peak. After watching them ALL. This guy stood out above the rest. He tarnished his legacy by just collecting huge purses and trying not to get hit later in his career, but this is the most unbeatable fighter at his peak I've ever seen, and This is who I would really like to see Lee fight. I think he might match Lee's speed if he was bare handed. Check this out. Before you see the name and say "meh" Watch The Video. |

Bruce Lee was a charismatic caricature for the ninja genre movies he starred in. Nothing more, nothing less. |

The problem is people are forgetting the physics. The size difference is just too much to over come.
Lee was what under 145 and Tyson is at 220 to 230, just too much difference. |

Tyson would win. He'd pin Lee and pound the shit out of him UFC style, game over.
Not to mention, how hard could it be to beat up a corpse? |

I missed this 2 years ago (random bump?), but it is quite the interesting question. Tyson was a ****ing marvel. I mean Christ. He was just a ****ing animal. An insanely fast, brutal, mean son of a bitch. Now, there is a lot of shit that martial artists do that is absolutely devastating, and that can offset size difference on normal people. Tyson was not a normal dude. He was a ravenous animal. I've spent (thankfully a small amount of) time around livestock, and even cows or pigs, there isn't really much to offset tremendous physical size/power. 235 pound pig says "I ain't going." He ain't ****ing going. What's worse is if he says he is going, and dump trucks your ass because he wants back in the pen with his buddies. You have use panels and corral them, they'll just run right through you. You can knock them ****ers in the head with a bat and they'll just run through you. This is the way Tyson was to a far far far more fast, explosive, angry, vicious kind of way. That power is unfathomable. I took Lee in a close one. I think he's got the speed to stay the **** away and kick low and do the martial arts shit that Tyson isn't trained for. I'm with the rest though, if Tyson ever even got 25% of a punch through to Lee, it'd be devastating and he probably wouldn't be able to land the next one. I may be wrong and it may be Tyson, but it's closer than you think. |

Tons of wrestlers go try their hand a MMA and get the shit kicked out of them. Boxers as well. Because your experience in wrestling was one of structure and rules. Holds that aren't designed for another guy being able to hammer punch you in the face. And you have to actually get the guy on the ground to start wrestling. Good luck "shooting" when the other guy can just knee you in the ****ing face and start elbowing you in the back of the head. Obviously, you can get guys on the ground, but it's much, much, much harder. And even then, there are counters to your wrestling holds that weren't legal in college so you never had to prepare against them. However, the most basic rule of MMA is that anyone has a puncher's chance, and Tyson is the greatest puncher ever. I'll take Tyson at 225lbs of solid anger vs. 135 pounds. Sometimes size just makes a difference. |
