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

Bruce lee damn near invented the idea of mixed martial arts in the modern world...he fought in mixed martial arts full contact competitions...dude would likely beat the fuck out of all those dudes y'all listed...

but remember also that cain valasquez an all them are in way higher weight classes than Bruce lee...he weighed less than 150 lbs if I remember correctly...anyone sayin Bruce lee was just a movie martial artist obviously knows NOTHIN about the man or his history as both a martial artist an a fighter...

Bruce lee would smash Roy jones, an all ur favorite mixed martial artists...he basically invented the sport they train in an his training methods were not only up to par with what kats do nowadays but were arguable tougher an more demanding...

kats always wanna discredit the legends of the past like "oh but we do it so much better nowadays" but that's bullshit...how ignorant u gotta be to believe that shit?

NOT TO MENTION there's quite a bit of martial arts techniques that are illegal in mma fighting today...small joint manipulation an pressure point strikes for instance...UFC likes to pretend they have proven traditional martial arts can't compare but they did that by banning many of the techniques that a traditional martial artist would use...

that's like putting a kick boxer in a professional boxing match an sayin u proved boxing is better when he loses...of course he lost, he couldn't kick or knee or elbow or throw...

the UFC an mma as a whole is a slap in the face of martial arts an is far more about pushing an Americanized agenda that Dana white can make money off of than it is about developing the effectiveness of martial arts training...do ur research before u log on netcees an start talkin out ur ass...
