I just found out that Bob Wall passed away on January 30th 2022 at the age of 82. Below is a previous comment /critique I wrote last year and no matter what I said, Bob left behind a wife and two daughters that absolutely adored him. He did contribute his fair share to the martial arts world and was great as O’Hara in Enter The Dragon. No one took a hit better than Bob. At a time like this I would not want say anything that would hurt his family, friends, and fans. It’s one thing to criticize someone when they are alive, it’s when they have recently passed away and their family and friends are mourning their loss. I personally have lost too many family members and friends myself so I feel for his wife and daughters. So Rest In Peace Robert Wall and my condolences to his family and friends. Thanks for understanding. Bob is insightful, funny, witty and can really tell some stories...but I have a bone to pick with him on some things he said about Bruce. First of all you can listen to Bruce Lee on KZbin in a dictation recording he made reading out of the Washington Star newspaper and it says that Chuck Norris joe Lewis Mike Stone were his pupils, and he (Bruce) treats them like a father would a young child. You can also watch on KZbin Joe Lewis admitting that he was a student of Bruce’s. Joe goes on to say that there were other fighters who were very famous who will not admit that they were a student of Bruce’s. Bob says Bruce was the greatest martial artist when it comes to movie fighting. Again, if you watch the KZbin video with Joe Lewis he also says Bruce Lee was the fastest person who has ever stood in front of him, he had blinding speed and he could hit like a heavyweight, he said Bruce could take a 75 pound barbell standing, and pull it up to his chest and slowly extend it straight out until his arms locked and then pull it back slowly. Joe goes on to say that he knows people who can benchpress 500 pounds but they cannot do this! Jim Kelly said Bruce was unbelievable and that he sparred with some of the greats and was untouchable. James Demile said Bruce could beat anyone, no matter how big or how tough it didn’t matter, “he had the beauty of the art of fighting.” My point? Bob Wall should be telling everyone the truth about how incredible Bruce was as a real fighter because he knows first hand. Apparently Bob and some of the others asked Bruce if he wouldn’t mention that they were students of his because it would be embarrassing, but remember Bob and Chuck Norris said they only worked out with Bruce and they showed each other techniques but if that is true then why would they pay Bruce to only work out with him? Chuck said he showed Bruce how to kick high and this is absolutely not true, just watch Bruce at the 1964 Long Beach internationals. He spars I believe Dan Inosanto with both wearing full body protection and you’ll see Bruce kick to the head more than once. Bruce was challenged all the time and while in the USA he was challenged in Seattle by a black belt and Bruce beat him and knocked him unconscious in 11 seconds blood everywhere. This was at the downtown YMCA. There were several witnesses to this. Dan Inosanto said Bruce had tremendous power and speed that when he sparred Bruce it was like a bad dream and he has never seen anyone with Bruce’s fighting skills. I love some of Bobs stories but he needs to be completely honest about the real street fighting abilities of the greatest martial artist the world has ever seen!

@Emotional Content Bruce Lee wasn't a real martial artist and there is plenty of evidence to show that, now I can very easily go in to that. Jim Kelly lied about Bruce Lee's fighting ability I can prove he lied and it comes from the mans own mouth. Chuck Norris did teach Bruce Lee high kicks, Bruce Lee's kicking skill wasn't bad that's what the greatest kicker to ever be in movies stated, 10th Dan mixed martial arts grandmaster Hwang jung Lee (Silverfox) Bruce Lee had two months of kicking lessons in Hong Kong before he left for America that was in 1958 the source of that information is Hawkins cheung Lee's life long friend, Bruce Lee wasn't an expert at kicking so stating Lee kicked high in a TV show is irrelevant. Lee's philosophy at the time was to always kick low anyway.

@@silverfoxsilverfox6932 your right, Bruce lee wasn’t real, joey orbellio, Fred wren, Louis Delgado, Mike stone, Hayward Nikohoisha, Wally Jay, Joe Lewis, all were bullshitting bullshitting when they said Bruce was the best they saw. I need to cop on and take your opinion over all them. Thank you for showing me the light and to help me discard my opinion based on fact. Oh yes that’s right Chuck did teach Bruce the high kicks, so why is there actual footage of Bruce doing high kicks at demos long before he might Chuck?? Oh yess that’s right Chuck is not lying. Cough cough.l!!!All these facts are online. Take the time to do some research besides talking absolute bolox on the internet. It’s not hard to find out. I once met a man called Larry hartsell, a Student of Bruce lee. He said he saw Bruce and chuck spar. Guess what? Bruce wiped his arse with him. Would chuck ever admit that?? Noooooooo of course Jim jelly was lying too as was Richard bustillio. It’s all one big conspiracy that Bruce was actor pretending to be real. That’s why MMA greats acknowledge his greatness. Send me proof of articles or footage to back your claims or else piss off. The internet is full off bullshiters and your another one.

A true martial artist doesn't have to fight in competitions. For the record did Bruce not train under IP man wing chun. I believe his whole family trained in the Chinese martial arts. The arts that are the parents of all Japanese karate and jujitsu. You can't say someone isn't a martial artist because they haven't fought in competitions. Martial arts are a way of life.

Enjoyed this podcast.Bob was a heavyweight martial artist tough as nails who today or for that matter the last near 50 years took blows like he did he was a salesman and his job was to show Bruce at his best.Bruce obviously had Bob in multiple movies because he knew Bob could sell his talent better than anyone else as far as ego why not he was good Bruce also had a good ego a lot of successful people do I’m sorry Bob has passed he looked like he’d go to 100 with his enthusiasm God bless him

You made a great point about the instructors being brutal to the students, it was torture for us old-school guys. I am amazed at how watered down today's martial arts are in comparison to what we experienced in the 70s. I do understand the economic reasons for not being hard on students.

First Bruce Lee Movie I/we watched was in Kabul, Afghanistan; I was like 9 or 10 yrs old in 1982/3; it was televised, where he goes to Italy and fights Chuck Norris! After watching that movie... my younger brother and I went for Karate/Kung-Fu lessons with extended family members who were training secretly. We had that Asian look... people use to call us 'Bruce Lee'! My younger brother and I were always fighting each other... we thought we were Bruce Lee!

And it all started with this MMA . Then they call him the founder of MMA and he wasn't. He was the founder of Jeet kune do

Whilst nobody is perfect Bob & Bruce looked after those around them and didnt forget the people who helped them along the way. Old time values❤👍

I listened to Bob quite intently and his narrative on BRUCE LEE JACKIE CHAN AND SAMMO describing them all as theatrical kung fu movie actors and not martial artists in actual real life. Not one time did he state that Bruce Lee taught them all and made them all better fighters. The entire interview was attenuating his own ego..and his own fight scenes with Bruce showing him not to be even laying a hand on BRUCE..All these fights choreographed by Bruce lee and it did sound as if Mr Wall created by him alone...this has just totally put me off this old man. BRUCE LEE WAS NOT ONLY THE MOST INFLUENTIAL MOVIE STAR BUT WAS WAS A REAL HARDCORE FIGHTER IN REAL LIFE AND WOULD HAVE WHOOPED ALL THESE WHITE DUDES IN REAL LIFE... NOW WE HAVE KHABIB AND ALL THE UFC FIGHTERS WHO ARE MOSTLY MUSLIMS WHO ARE KICKING BUTT.INSHALLAH

Bob Wall is still an asshole and a fake. In Enter the Dragon, he played O’Hara. He said he hired Jackie Chan for Enter the Dragon? WTF?!! Golden Harvest worked with Warner Bros and Jackie Chan was hired by Bruce Lee. It’s his own stunt crew. The scene where Bruce Lee side kicked Bob Wall was actually real. Bob Wall was supposed to use a fake bottle prop. Instead, he used a broken glass bottle and he was supposed to let it go when Bruce kicked it but he held onto it slashing Bruce’s foot which needed stitches. This delayed the movie production. This is why Bruce got back at Bob and actually side-kicked Bob for real and it was actually filmed and used 😂
