Real Fighters in Movies Part 2 | Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Michael Jai White, Scott Adkins, Karen Sheperd

[@ewa.saffie]

Scot adkins Boyka is waaaayy underrated

[@BeAndNBovee]

Donny Yen seems to be the most broadly knowledgeable and experienced martial artist ever.

[@isaacyeon6334]

I said it a billion times, Donnie Yen is the modern Bruce Lee or what Bruce Lee could’ve been if he lived Bruce Lee always added to his array of martial arts from all over the world, always making theories and creating a style for himself. Popularizing Chinese martial arts in America Donnie is knowledgeable and straight up master a variety of martial arts from both the west and the east, making a whole different style of choreo and killed it in both Hong Kong and American cinema like Bruce did

[@hugejackedman3447]

Benny is the most experienced. Donnie has practiced a lot of arts but Benny has literally hundreds of fights worth of experience.

[@Joker42o99]

Donnie Yen, Scott Adkins, Jet Li , Michael Jai white are my favorite

[@Nkosingimele]

Donnie yen'skills just wow😮

[@lmbuckhalterjr6123]

Left out that young Jet Li accidentally cut himself during a competition but finished it in perfect form. That and Donnie Yen portraid Bruce Lee's character in the tv series Fists Of Fury, which I love because it's a whole backstory on the character. He did, also, defeat four people in an actual street fight.

[@presentruth100]

Talk about Atkins, Michael Jai White and Jet Li. They're the bomb

[@TaiwoUsman-sr4qy]

The word i am the most complete fighter in the world 😂😂 I just love that open scene by Scot adkin

[@KellysMwape-wb7zq]

Am the fan of Jackie Chan and Michael Jai White

[@BitoTheNiceGuy]

Bruce Lee always in my heart 🔥🐲

[@zijadtumbul6135]

Donnie yen jet li 2 legende 💪💪💪

[@rjlab742]

Some martial artists you can consider for a part 3: Jason Statham, Wesley Snipes, Lateef Crowder (famed for playing capoeira fighters), Daniel Bernhardt, Gary Daniels, Jon Foo, Iko Uwais, Samo Hung, Robin Shou.

[@СергейЛобов-о3т]

Scott mostly had been inspired by Van Damme. His cherished dream was to be shot together with Van Damme in his movie. What actually had been materialized in the future.

[@parshotamlal1749]

My choices are Benny the Jet, Donnie Yen and Oliver Grunner.

[@JackHawkinswrites]

Scott Adkins should be cast as James Bond

[@JustWill1965]

I can see him as Batman and Daredevil

[@nashbullet3213]

He’s more suited to the role of Batman

[@youngOGTelly]

My personal favorite for Donnie was the Dragon Tiger Gate. That's just me though. My fav Jet Li movie is The One.

[@RANGAA290]

Even George st said that Donni yen is a true martial artist.. He is a professional 🔥.... DONNI YEN

[@oneksalami7791]

These guys are the ones that need to have parts in Marvel movies.

[@omerramo6091]

Jet le best

[@ericaharris4728]

Donnie Yes, the Tax accountant who can kick serious butt

[@oriebahedwig746]

Explore the kickers Loren avedon, Keith vitali, Keith cook, jerry trimbo...some mature natural kicks these guys have

[@DavidMathumba-xo9bi]

After Bruce Lee's death, martial arts movies were never the same. Then came Donnie Yen with wing- chun and changed the whole ball game with his excellent fighting skills that brought life back into martial arts movies. But above all, Scott is my favourite and sad that he's underrated. His fighting skills are impeccable.

[@ThaboSibanyoni-e9r]

Tony Jaa and Jason Statham

[@calirain1681]

I like Jet but I think Donny is the next Bruce Lee

[@kristallmenschkristallwolf1969]

I presume Chuck Norris Toni Yaa Donnie Yen Jet Li Bruce Lee Benny the Jet - Jackie Chan i dont know and also Michael Jay White told he could defend his Family and thats an must with 30 Years Martial Arts - Scott Adkins at least know what works and what not

[@poohbop]

You should have Chiang Sheng. I have always enjoyed his movies.

[@TheManSharonShawChinaQueen]

🙏🏻❤ I have most respect for China.

[@blognationent1956]

Benny the GOAT

[@chrisbee7876]

[@leograham8477]

I'm just shocked that they didn't really add tony jaa to the list

[@errydeo8865]

There are so many not added the jack chan, chuck Moris, cynthia rothrock,jcvd

[@bobbywilson2539]

[@pereirahelder2855]

Also miss Bill " Superfoot" Wallace

[@pereirahelder2855]

I really appreciate your two videos about martial artist. If you do the part 3, you need put in : Steven Seagal, Gary Daniels, Daniel Bernhardt, Ray Park, Joey Ansah, Silvio Simac, Kane Kosugi, Tim Man, Marrese Crump, Iko Uwais, Lateef Crowder Dos Santos, Amem Santos, cesar Carneiro, Marko Zaror and Wesley Snipes.

[@amirhusseinnnn]

Why there is not tony jaa ?? Hes the best martial artist actors ever

[@jamesowan1066]

Speakman does kenpo not gojuryu

[@bronzetiger6360]

I remember a Black Belt Magazine article where he says the Goju style was his first style. Probably helped him move up in Kenpo so well.

[@jacyee3619]

how about mentioning actors that are not known for acting fighting scenes such as Ashton Kutcher and Ed O'Neal both are black belts

[@johnetheridge5833]

Stop calling people the next bruce lee there will never be a next bruce lee

[@jordansimpson9099]

Still no love for Lateef Crowder "ah" how sad.

[@jonmacist]

There is no way to know for sure saying real fighters is such a generic term.

[@bernardwilliams4071]

Exactly

[@hugejackedman3447]

Depends on how one defines a real fighter. Are we talking combat sports competitors? Are we talking martial artists? Because *ALL* combat sports competitors are martial artists but not all martial artists are combat sports competitors. It's like basketball. You have pro NBA players and streetballers. Nobody says streetballers aren't real basketball players because they don't compete in the NBA but many tend to say martial artists arent real fighters because they don't compete in a sanctioned sport. Something to consider...

[@bernardwilliams4071]

@@hugejackedman3447 Your right streetballers people don't say they are not real ball players cause they not in the NBA. But for some reason Renoun Martial artists people say they are not fighters cause they are not in a cage. Movie fighters to they can't fight they are not in a cage. This is that they never had a punch thrown at them all they do is action cut action cut what about their chin etc. They will go on to the end of time.

[@jonmacist]

@@hugejackedman3447 Exactly too hard to define and sport fighting is not real fighting if there are rules and a weight class, how many times in a real fight on the street do you say to the guy your fighting sorry cant fight you your too big, he will laugh and try and kill you anyway. Dont agree even all sports fighters are martial Artists in the true sense they might know martial arts, or studies it, but if they dont live the martial way then they are not martial artists jsut pro fighters, like being overweight, eat too much junk, food, drink too much, do drugs, or smoke, swear and desrespect people, be a bully, or over trash talk, those are not martial artists. f you can use your martial arts training in a real situation, on the street and fight no rules, and could win, defending yourself and famliy for real then you are a fighter or know how to fight.

[@hugejackedman3447]

@@bernardwilliams4071 Some of those movie guys have had at least a sparring match if nothing else.

[@DavidLee-iu7nd]

I'm wondering if Jeff Wincott, Lorenzo Lamas, Matthias Hues, Loren Avedon, Keith Cooke, Gary Daniels could be in a future feature of this?

[@coates27]

Jet li and Jackie Chan both stated they are not fighters. Bruce Lee, 100 percent a fighter, before he even learned, dude was a gang leader. Donnie Yen, Fighter. Benny the Jet is 100 percent a fighter. Scott Attkins is not a fighter but a practitioner of Martail art. Van Dam is a fighter.

[@AndrewBates-c8b]

There's only one Bruce Lee,stop referring to other Martial artists as the next Bruce Lee.

[@michaelregan352]

Scott Adkins isn't from a small town named Birmingham. He's from a large city of 1.1 million people called Birmingham ffs.

[@mantislake4141]

I love Jet Li and many of his films but how's he a fighter? He certainly qualified as an incredible athlete but he competed (and won) in Wushu, which is more like gymnastics. No fighting. Again, he's awesome, God bless him, but he's not a fighter.

[@vandamme6379]

He has never actually been in a fight in his life. Those are his own words.

[@rtghost5173]

In wushu school he had to fight.... But he never had a street fight

[@ArielBettiJourney]

@@rtghost5173 In Wushu he competed in taolu. He became 5 times chinese champion and retired undefeated, but Taolu ain't fighting.

[@nikodaq]

Most of them aint even fighters, js martial arts practitioners. Real fighters are those who actually fought and competed in tournaments like boxing, muay thai, so on

[@vandamme6379]

Michael Jai White?? 😂

[@hugejackedman3447]

He has a record. An official one. It's with the police department for street fights in his teens, but it's still an offical record! 🤣

[@wilsonsmanz]

What do you mean by Real Fighters? You mean Martial Artists right? Because to me, none of these guys are real fighters because they don't fight for a living but they are all supreme martial artists. A real fighter to me is Jon Jones, somebody who fights for real and makes their living that way. Martial Artists who make their living through acting are not real fighters.

[@periair8874]

Many of them learned Martial Arts from the beginning they competed in Martial Arts Tournament on regular basis. They hold many National and World Title.

[@wilsonsmanz]

@@periair8874 well what does that mean though because it depends. For instance, if you are in a karate tournament there is no wrestling or grappling because it's based on that specific partial art. But in a real fight anything goes. Lots of Martial Artist compete in tournaments based on that specific art but that doesn't really make them a fighter in my opinion, it just elevates them as a martial artist.

[@realdealmind01]

​@@periair8874Jet Li is neither a practical martial artist and a fighter. He's a taolu wushu champion, meaning that he has only mastered gymnastics and forms
