@Patrick, you know I've been defending Bruce Lee against haters on KZbin comments, and I noticed the haters don't talk trash to Asian martial art stars STILL ALIVE because they know they can be confronted.

[@tempestates13]

I was surprised when he was doing the Ip Man series that master Ip's son was teaching Donnie just as the father taught Bruce Lee. So, squee.

[@tempestates13]

@@eddiegee2940 Bruce Lee was amazing. My oldest watched Ip Man 4 and was going bonkers over the alley scene.

[@dmraven]

@@eddiegee2940 I don't think that person said anything bad about Bruce Lee... Many people without doing research simply by listening to his real voice or watching his recorded videos, or even the movies made about him would automatically assume he was originally from HK due to his 1st language being Chinese (Cantonese dialect) and talking in English with an accent. In reality he was actually born in the USA in 1940. His martial arts training did not begin until he was 13 in 1953 with Yip Man. He spent most of his adult life in the USA being sent there for college originally by his parents in 1959 (was 18). With not including his private romantic life and kids and short tv show (The Green Hornet from 66-67) he eventually later on realized the amount of Wing Chun that he was tought did not work for him. So he began creating, customizing (mixing in different types or styles of martial arts... MMA) and teaching his own form named JKD until 1970 in the USA as well. He then spent his last 2½ years mostly in HK acting and past away there in 73, age 32. Also many people seem to not know this but although his father was full Chinese, his mother was actually not full Chinese but had a % of European in her. So Bruce Lee was infact not only just a US born citizen, but he was also not full Chinese but a Eurasion, or mixed. This is the real reason in particular why Yip Man taught him privately. It was because other Chinese students would make fun of him due to his mixed race and disrupt class. But Yip Man saw great potential in Lee and made an obvious extremely smart choice to take time and privately teach him. Like I said I don't think the person you specifically mentioned said anything bad about Bruce Lee. And in reality he truthfully was a US citizen that was Eurasion aka mixed (not just Asian) ... 😆. And he basically was the founder of MMA, far more western than the current Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Donnie Yen. But that is only for people who do research.

Donnie Yen is a man with a golden heart. Although he has millions he is humble man. He is not afraid of saying the truth. He is a mixed master arts of many fighting styles. Many stars are stuck up . He deserves his money and more he worked hard for it. He is a handsome man so you can not provoke him or you will wish you did not. Donnie uses his millions to help others as it should be. Loves his culture and country. He has his defects but what the hell he is only human.
