Bruce Lee is the best Martial Artist of all time. He's was way ahead of his time. Master Yip Man trained Bruce Lee. Bruce ended up surpassing his teacher. Yip Man was able to see alot of Bruce's impact on the world, before Yip passed away. Bruce would need up dying year later, in 1973. Unfortunately, Bruce did not live to see the greater impact he made on the world, because he died shortly after he made the great Martial Arts film - Enter the Dragon. Enter the Dragon was the first Martial Arts film backed by a major Hollywood studio. So, Bruce changed the way humans looked at Chinese men, Martial Arts and ones commitment to their craft. The Martial Arts blew up in a big way, thanks to Bruce's efforts. You had many Martial Arts schools open up in America. Dana White (Owner of the UFC) stated, "Without Bruce Lee, there is no MMA. Bruce did this first.) Bruce Lee created his own fighting philosophy/ Martial Art known as Jeet Kune Do. A system of fighting that allows the practitioner to explore who they are and what would be the best way for that person to fight. Jeet Kune Do is made up of many techniques from different fighting styles, to create the ultimate self defense system. It's crazy how Bruce Lee and his Master Yip died on e year apart from each other. Master Yip 1972, Bruce Lee 1973. May both of them R.I.P. TERRANCE OUT

Sad that after Yip Man passed, Bruce passed 8 months later in July 3 weeks before the release of Enter The Dragon.

[@hamacus]

I have seen this movie hundreds of times. As a teen I was inspired by Bruce Lee movies to study martial arts. My Dad enrolled my brother and I at Chuck Norris Karate studios in Beverly Hills. He actually came through one of our classes and walked across our stomach during a kiai drill. 💯💯💯 He taught Tang Soo Do at that time. That said Bruce was the man! I went on to study and teach martial arts in many disciplines and appreciate Bruce's philosophy of not being beholden to one particular form / style. This scene shows the need to adapt to the situation using multiple skills. Chuck could not adapt. Glad to see people appreciate these movies and martial artist.

[@putnik6237]

Not Chuck,but his hero!

[@BobJones-nk6nl]

These two legends met in NYC at a martial arts tournament. They worked out together for several years in LA and were good friends. Bruce, Chuck, Steve McQueen, and Bob Wall were all friends.

[@micaylab1]

I feel like the cat in this iconic scene is serving as both the referee for the fight and it's also controlling the fighters.

[@robert29ti]

the moves in this fight are 100% legit, they might look funny because it's exaggerated and the camera work is outdated but i assure you they are real moves. the jabs, leg checks, fakes and leg kicks are used in ufc today. you can actually learn how to fight just by watching this clip

[@Mason-jb3hl]

Right. Thats why I get frustrated when people say Bruce was just an actor. The fact that these moves are used in modern day UFC just proves Bruce Lee was decades ahead of his time.

[@heartfanjim01]

@@Mason-jb3hl so true. Even Joe Rogan,like him or hate him,said the way Bruce moves and knows what would and wouldn't work,he definitely did aot of sparring. He said the way Bruce is fking him up is alot like the way someone at a high level in the UFC is fking someone up. He definitely was more than just an actor.

[@AlexGarcia-ze4yg]

First guy to mention Bruce's fake outs and set ups.!

[@NJTransit1985]

Some of the moves maybe, but what the UFC taught everyone today was that traditional martial arts has little place on the streets. All the black belt fighters aside from jujitsu were weeded out fairly quickly and replaced with mma.

[@AlexGarcia-ze4yg]

@@NJTransit1985 That's exactly what Bruce taught. That's why he called the traditional aesthetic martial arts the "classical mess."

Lee pulling Noris's hair and biting folks too in some movies reveals that though he is Martial artist he is a Raw Fighter too

[@antonioridah172]

Exactly well said

[@siegeperilous]

In the film, Chuck Norris played a hired martial artist named Colt whom the crime bosses in the movie hired to deal with Lee. I’m glad you noticed the choreography on the fight. Even though modern filmmaking has improved stunts and camera angles, This fight, despite its apparent simplicity, is a masterpiece; in fact, you might say it’s simplicity reveals its genius, allows the choreography to stand out. After Lee‘s character gets beat down by Norris‘s character,The music shifts tempo to signify not only a change in momentum, but a change in tactics. Lee’s martial arts philosophy was always about adaptability. In the beginning of the fight, both fighters squared off in wide base stances, common in martial arts because the Wide base emphasizes balance. However when the music starts at a high tempo, Lee is bouncing his feet adopting western boxing/fencing to deal with Norris’ skill. Lee emphasizes evasiveness In the next sequence, toying with Norris, and we see the cat toying with the pebble. I could go onAnd discuss the next music shift, the of use silence in the fight, etc. but I think I’ve made my point

Facts

[@johndoe1765]

Bruce Lee had so much vision as a kid in his teens watching this fight scene for the first time in the seventies it was just all action to me ,but as a man pushing 63 years of age today he,s an inspirational point of light in the magnitude of the human condition.

[@heartfanjim01]

What's interesting about this scene is it wasn't choreographed like every other movie. Bruce and Chuck knew each other so well that they just discussed what techniques Bruce wanted to do and what techniques he wanted Chuck to use. They just put it together on set. It was closer to a light sparring session.

What you have to understand is one of many reasons Bruce Lee's movies were so realistic was although he tried not hit his stunt men. He actually did them. Ask Jackie Chan, Samo Hung etc, and Chuck Norris was a student of Bruce Lee.

If I remember correctly, at the time this movie was being filmed, Chuck Norris was actually the world martial arts champion at the time, in real life. Bruce had called Norris & told him that he wanted him to do a fight scene with him in this movie, Norris made a joke to Bruce tellin him something Along the lines of "and who's gonna win in this scene?" To which Bruce replied "me of course, it's my movie" & Norris told him "ahhhh, so you just want me in the scene so you can brag about how you beat the world martial arts champion" & Bruce Lee just laughed lol

Bruce Lee learned Wing Chun from Master Ip Man. Years later Bruce came up with own martial art Jeet Kune Do. When Bruce first asked Chuck if wanted to be in this movie. Chuck said "Oh, you want to beat up the world champion kickboxer." Bruce said "No, I want to kill the world champion kickboxer." Chuck said "Ok Bruce I'll do it." Chuck's first movie and if want to see more Chuck Norris at one of his absolute best scenes ever. Watch Walker, Texas Ranger: Rise to the Occasion episode. Definitely one best episodes of the entire series in my opinion.

Racist people always say his a actor not a martial artist, lol dumb millennials/whities can't hack a small asian guy winning look at 8:05 this was a realistic fighting set up, constant low attacks, then one low feint to roundhouse. Even in a documentary when some white dude ask "how come you're so fast" bruce said: "i'm not fast, many people faster, but i learnt to be DECEPTIVE" these feints/fake outs make him a real fighter along with his speed/strength and scientific concept of punching/kicking. His style of kicking allows for fast kick/recovery

[@VTuber_Clipp3r]

8:50 same concept, teasing/annoying the opponent then low attack then high attack full left/right hooks, p.s if anyone is wondering why i'm negative abit i grew up with not just racism but idiots would love to say "oh yeah well can kungfu beta a gun" really?? one is hand to hand combat one is a weapon, i.e apple and oranges.

I don't know how far you studied back into Bruce Lee. But the Wing Chun originated from a Buddhist nun named Ng Mui. The fighting system was named after the nun's first student, Yim Wing Chun. A bully was trying to marry Ms. Wing Chun so the nun taught her how to fight. There's even a movie about it called Wing Chun (2010). kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmKueZuGbZiafNk Use the closed captions for English subtitles.
