I met Muhammad Ali in person many times during the 1960s and 1970s in Chicago. However I never met Bruce Lee in person. Both Ali and Lee are great legendary fighters.

[@jagger_claw]

Yes a great sport fighter & a great street fighter!😁

[@Allnonym0u5]

M. Ali was great boxer fighter period.

[@cuzz63]

Lee was not a fighter.

[@IgirimbabaziInnocent]

​@@cuzz63You are wrong

Interesting to hear from Bruce's less, well-known students and friends experiences with him.

[@angeloxrusso]

Angelo from Milan, Italy. I am a long time student and good friend of Octavio Quintero and certified coach in The Art of JKD. Fantastic cinematic quality video and exciting content. The anecdotes shared by Doug about his personal experience with Bruce Lee, the format and Octavio's thirty years of experience in the world of martial arts and jkd represent a milestone in this field, now offered to millions of people through this platform. 🙌

[@sabinalanca2610]

Great story, conversation and production designed with thoroughness and attention to every detail that creates the emotional impact of the video. Excellent sound and music selection. I'm new to sifu Octavio's European team of students and I appreciate all the support for improving the leadership of my club.

[@od628]

Great story and well produced. Can't wait for the next episode!

[@zhihonghuang5203]

Wow - on several levels - haha. Never heard of this man. I wonder how many other of Lee's students we don't know about. He seems like a very sincere and good-hearted person. It's amazing to have "clicked" with 2 famous icons - how very fortunate. Also, with quite a few of Mr. Lee's original students passing away - he looks quite young - maybe younger than he looks. I wonder how many original students are still around. A very nice interview - thank you, Mr. Quintero.

[@noscentra1]

Very enlightening. Great interview. The stories were rich and wonderful with deep insights into the art and founder.

Regretfully I could not attend the live stream.

[@vanhnavongdouglas3826]

Beautiful interview Sifu! I think we often forget how things were during the day and age of no cellphones and internet at the palms of our hands and it was amazing to hear and see from someone else's point of view at that time who was so close to Bruce Lee. I think my biggest take from this interview is how beautiful that in some way shape or form we are all connected from the efforts of Bruce Lee not by Jeet Kune Do alone but rather by what it has done for us in our day to day lives. 🙏

[@GungFuIsGungFu]

Great interview Octavio ! Thank you for sharing !

[@jerezindraj6723]

Hello Octavio. Which Techniques in Tai Chi is Used Jeet Kune Do? Thank You. @OCTAVIO Q

[@octavioquintero]

Both Tai Chi and Jeet Kune do have different purposes. However , it’s not to say that both cannot apply the same objective. 🙂
