We all know that Bruce Lee was an amazingly fast sticker. Would this have given him an advantage in the UFC?
if alive today how long do you reckon he would last against Guys like Tito ortiz and Tank Abbot?
Lets not forget that Bruce Lee also studied some ground grappling too, Maybe not the extent of the of the MMArtists today but he knew how to grapple. |
If you were to put bruce lee into the ring back then before he died with his experience , i wouldn't put your money on him. But if he were alive today im sure he would of learnt every little part of ufc and MMA , and im sure then he would win.

In my opinion, Bruce Lee was one of the first mixed martial artists. I think if Bruce were alive today, his JKD students would be doing something very similar to what MMA guys are doing today. The best example I can think of would be Straight Blast Gym in Portland.

I would say he has a chance in the lightweight division.
