Why do I love Bruce Lee? Not because he was an awesome martial artist- but because his train of thought overlapped with mine even before I knew about him.
Thank you karate forums, for introducing me to Bruce Lee |

Barry Mcguigan.
Small guy, BIG HEART.
Excellent technician, but most of all, he would never give up.
Great spirit. |

Ah, how simple, and yet how profound. I completely agree. I'd personally also add my Sensei as my martial arts hero, as he inspires me in many ways to become a better martial artist and instructor every day.

| I AM VERY HAPPY THAT MOSTLY AMERICANS PREFER TO TAKE MARTIAL ARTIST WITH MOVIE BACKROUND OR MAKERS MARTIAL ARTS MOVIES BECAUSE THESE GUYS HAVE PHILOSOPHY BASE OR THEY LEARNED PHILOSOPHY AND ABSORBED SPIRIT TRAINING..CHUCK NORRIS, BRUCE LEE, STEVEN SEAGAL, JACKIE CHAN AND SO ON...IT NEEDS RATHER IMITATE REALLY GOOD GUYS THAN JUST SPORTSMENS WITHOUT ANY PHILOSOPHY PREPAREDNESS AND KNOW ONLY TO BEAT PARTNER OR TAKE BARBELL. |

I don't know if you'll see very many careers in MMA that last 15 years. I don't think you can compare the longevity of MMAers to Boxers. Guys like Couture are going to be the exception rather than the rule, and as the competition keeps getting better and better, the ability to stay on top for prolonged periods of time will lessen more and more.

I don't think that this is alltogether fair to assume. Not every movie guy MAist is a nice guy, and you can't know if sportsmen MAist have any personal philosophies without asking them. You might be surprised.
