had a Roy Jones vs Bruce Lee argument and it pissed me off

No it doest. Speed can be trained, but is also relative. When you take Capoeira and Tae Kwon Do, and even some more abstract arts like Snake style into account, many of the trainers would be faster than Bruce Lee. That's not trying to discredit Jeet Kun Do or Lee, he was insanely fast. It's just not as concrete as you make it sound. Yeah, Lee was MUCH faster than Jones, and for his weight class, Jones was one of the fastest of all time (another size thing though).

Bruce Lee COULD win. A side kick to the stomach would be hard as fuck for Jones to defend, given that he never has had to, and with the speed and power Lee puts into it, Jones might be in trouble. The problem is though, Lee was a small guy. To land his side kick, he's have to be pretty close. Jones would land the overhand right and probably take it.

Actually, Lee would almost def with. I think it would be one technique that would take it without too much effort, the knee strike. Jones, like all boxers, has small legs. Lee could cover up, throw in a knee stomp or side kick, and probably break or at least hyper extend it.

so let me guess, your more knowing on the issue then a fucking 100 other professionals who has said the same thing?

not to mention bruce lee was in amateur boxing championships and won them

You're acting like you too are also more knowing. Some of the guys Roy Nelson has knocked out would say he's the hardest puncher they've ever felt. It doesn't mean he's the hardest puncher ever.

And show me proof of these amateur boxing championships. I think ALL Lee fighting credentials are all speculation.

Bruce Lee has only won one recorded amateur tourny in his entire life yo

and I'm being serious. I thought it was common knowledge that he never competed

HE never competed in tournaments here but he did tons of exhibitions. not to mention he would have the edge in every aspect on jones ACCEPT size which is pretty irrelevant

I could show you proof of fighters from before Lee fighting.

It is said, but it is said by Lee fans. I don't really think you can say any martial art is faster than others, because it's all comes down to the person demonstrating it.

Why is there not really ANY video taped exhibition of Lee then? And yes, you can just make up a martial art on your own with no merit. Check ANY of the no touch knockout guys.
