NOONE IN UFC IS A JKD MASTER,? WONDER WHY.?
I've watched you post nonsensically in this thread long enough... everyone in MMA is a JKD master, if you knew anything about Bruce Lee, and the impact he had on MMA you would know this.
Even the gracies?
A lot of them in MMA.
BJJ>JKD
and was made long before bruce was even a baby
as was lancashire wrestling(saku)
pankration dates back 2000 years
and are still being used
noone uses jkd
so go back to watching tuf and enter the dragon
Do you even know what Jeet Kune Do is?

I'm tempted to start, but I'll just walk away, because you obviously have a magical shield that prevents any logic from entering your head.
just give me a fight any fight
besides 1 BOXING MATCH WHEN HE WAS 18 OVER THEN 19 YEAR OLD REIGNING CHAMPION(how long was he reigning @ 19)
Does it have to be professional? Look at someone like Kimbo Slice, the dude has one professional fight, does that mean he never fought besides that one fight?
he has plenty of footage

From what I have been reading, nWo knows what JKD is all about better than most here. JKD has some good things that you can use when you graduate Junior High and start taking MT instead TKD or JKD ... I still use my elbows to block punches when I role with the punches in MT, but JKD is not good in MMA by itself ... it is something to be built upon.

Bruce Lee if alive today and young might have dominated the Featherwieght and under classes.He was only 5'7" and never wieghed more than150 lbs.Leightwieght and above MMAists might just be too powerful for a guy that size since they were cutting down and he would be somewhere high for his build.That being said he would have been awsome in MMA with the amount of talent he had and proper training, who knows?
Ummm ... Faber would eat Lee alive .... I could probably ramble off more than a a dozen featherweights right off the top of my head who would finish Lee with relative ease in an MMA match.

You got the principal yet you don't understand it... Jeet Kune Do is a philosophy, not a martial art... use what works, and not what doesn't... Everyone on MMA is a Jeet Kune Do fighter... MMA = Jeet Kune Do...
As far as Lee fighting... who knows how well or how bad he would have done. You're right, above all else he was an actor... however a certain amount of respect is deserved as he was the first notable person to blend MA's in order to evolve...

In short this thread is not debating whether or not Bruce fought in mma what 40 years before the UFC even debuted? I had no idea Bruce was an actor, but thanks for pointing it out. Had there been a UFC, and had he wanted to train in specific MA's he would have and he would have succeeded.

Bruce is the founder of MMA and he would beat anyone in the sport even Liddell or GSP, he is so quick and punchs like a truck. He is also very good on the ground.

First of all, don't go around calling people noobs on here, especially when the two cards you mentioned are seven years apart. I'm not saying everyone is a philosopher, but whether you admit it or not, everybody that fights in MMA falls under the Jeet Kune Do category. Vale Tudo is not a blend of everything, it's basically everything goes... there is a big difference with that. Bruce Lee was one of the first well known martial artists who didn't rely on one art, and instead made his own form, suited to his own tastes and what works when fought. Albeit his own personal developed style of Jeet Kune Do would not have lasted in MMA, but the idea that someone who knew to overlook the traditional martial art vs. martial art idea and blend only what works, and leave out what doesn't would have picked up very quickly. As far as you going around on cap locks saying that he was nothing more than an actor, and not a real fighter... well there is some truth to that. However even people like Chuck Norris, who (correct me if I'm wrong) was a full contact karate champion 5 years in a row, have gone on record to say that they've never met anyone like Lee. Don't try and nit pick by saying that he has never fought, because truthfully there are countless people out there who could do well in the sport, yet just haven't fought. He is a legend in his own right for his views on fighting, and whether you chose to believe it or not, his JKD philosophy is exactly what MMA is all about.

lmao
bruce wouldnt do well
Chuck says that because he gets royalkties off the movie he was in
and i dont think chuck norris in his prime would do well in mma either
In response to the dangermod
I think JKD has been sisproved, ie there are four ways that are the way, WRESTLING, BOXING, JIU JITSU, KICKBOXING are the ways
without those four ways no one will make it.
THOSE ARE THE WAY

Whoooooaaaa my ninjas! Bruce Lee? Please. Of course he would be dominant, if not the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.
When people talk about Bruce Lee they talk about the actor Bruce Lee and only recognize the fighting he's done in the movies. Bruce was a complete fighter. He did, in fact, extensively study many forms of ground fighting including Jujutsu, wrestling, and Sambo. His work ethic and understanding of martial arts was unfathomable and would show in the cage.
He said himself that if he fought in the movies like he did in real life that it would be ugly-looking and very destructive and not beautiful and fluid like film coreography.
If he lost in the cage, it probably wouldn't happen again.
It's ignorance that causes people to assume anything but good about a martial artist of Bruce Lee's calibur. He wasn't about money, glory, or belts. He was about learning Martial Arts to it's fullest extent in all areas and applying them to his own personal style.
Also, many believe that MMA is the answer for all things martial arts. But people forget that it is still a sport with rules, stipulations, and restraints and only offer a shadow or an image of what true fighting may look like in an unrestricted venue, closed or open.

Also, according to Bruce himself (and his wife) Jeet Kune Do was both a set of philosophies and a martial art.
