Sammo Hung Finally Speaks Up On Bruce Lee

Very underrated actor he has done awesome work in films. More should be given. Thank you Mr Hung.

[@bobdemott]

Sammo Hung has always been a favorite of mine all because he did not look the part. I started in Judo at 14 and in my twenties I entered into Tae Kwon Do under General Choi he took a liking to me because I was patient and respectful. Then I met Professor Remy A. Presas and my life added another turn. I quietly rose through the ranks holding an eighth degree in Tae kwon do and 9th degree in Modern Arnis. I have been described many time as a person that does not I did not look the part. That is why I liked Sammo Hung so much what he struggled with I embraced he is a great man.The video is about Bruce Lee, I enjoyed his movies he died to young and Jackey Chan I also enjoyed his movies he is most entertaining. Sammo Hung to me was real. Thank you for making this video I enjoyed it and the perspective.

[@Combatlife365]

Great story! How you do sparring in modern arnis? Did you do hits only with weapon or you can hit with fist, kicks, grappling?

[@LuisGarcia-ei5dj]

It never ceases to amaze me how people who were present, worked with Bruce Lee directly and martial artists who fought or trained with him respect him and even fear him in a way while many stupid people today discredit Bruce Lee and even make fun of him. If every single expert of that time says how great he was then why listen to stupid people today who want to sully his name? He was a real fighter, way ahead of his time. The envy of many today who no matter how much they train they would never reach the level he was at.

[@robertschneiderjr280]

I grew up a Bruce Lee Fan he was amazing .The people who discredit him were just jeolous of his success .

[@dowens-dl1ng]

Research for Bruce Lee's fight record. There is not one. Oh he supposedly won a boxing match when he was a teenager? Wow. To be a fighter, you must fight. Fumio Demura..RIP....told me Lee was fast but he "had no power." There are about 1,000,000 stories out there about his fights.....oh sure.Do some research and you will discover that he trained and the various ways he did train. He almost never sparred. There is sparring...but there are levels. He was not a fighter. If he had fought we would know much more about his ability. The rest is speculation. One thing that is certain is that ...if you do not fight...you are not a fighter.

Apart from his martial arts skill, Bruce Lee was an absolutely amazing and mesmerizing actor. It was just so spellbinding to watch him.

[@tonydragomir5287]

What about Sammo Hung??? It was about him

[@Dragonborn2024]

Many Hong Kongers believe that Bruce Lee would falter against Muay Thai, yet reliable accounts reveal a very different story. Time and again, Bruce Lee is said to have faced Muay Thai champions in combat, leaving them utterly defeated, their confidence shattered like leaves scattered in a storm. These encounters, lasting mere seconds, showcased Lee’s unparalleled skill and lightning-fast precision. Disillusioned by the ease with which he dismantled his opponents, Bruce Lee reportedly found Muay Thai unworthy of further exploration-a testament to his transcendent mastery and the mythical aura surrounding his legend.

[@eddieq2189]

I really enjoyed this video because these two men sammo hung and Jackie chan met and worked with Bruce Lee those who knew him you see it in they're faces the admiration the respect the awe he inspired to the many people he met in his life there's no question Bruce was so influential just talking to him inspired an amazing unbelievable excitement that was one of a kind when you talk to tv or movie stars yes it can be exciting but with Bruce it was different you were nervous excited and at loss for words all at the same time he had such charisma people just wanted to be around him talk to him hangout with him once you met Bruce you'd want to meet him again he was just too exciting to miss an opportunity to meet him he was a great man a great person a great friend to those years who knew him and he never let the fact that he have as a world known super movie star get to his head he handled all that fame he finally got really well and stayed level headed ❤😊👍

[@Eddiebyrne-x9e]

That says it all😊

[@Ah-ed6ie]

Sammo was Like the big bro of jackie and yuen biao. But you can kind of see the path hung a jackie took. Enter the dragon: hung took the film and martial arts route and chan went more stunt and martial arts.

He was all of those things but not a real fighter. Real fighters fight other high level fighters.

[@InsideOutSpa-fx4gx]

Being gifted with this perspective about Bruce Lee from Sammo really confirms what I assumed was a common emotion within the Martial arts community. With huge regret, I have never studied any form of Martial art, but have endless appreciation, admiration and respect for those who have.

[@rufnek3124]

You know, if you know all these guys & have followed their careers, what Sammo has to say about Bruce is not "shocking" at all, nor "not what you think" - it is EXACTLY what you would expect. Fukken clickbaiting has infected EVERYTHUNG these days!! Great video, which i thoroughly enjoyed - it doesn't need the fukken knee-jerk sensationalism!

[@stephentse481]

Would have been great to see Bruce Lee in the Shaw Brothers movies

[@tubucoco]

This doesn't surprise me at all, what Sammo Hung said. People like Bruce Lee, Michael Jackson, and even Muhammad Ali when he was a young gifted boxer. Not the Ali after losing his championship belt due to avoiding the draft. Dude skills had started declining after that due to lack of activity. But the dude was untouchable back then, he had the speed of a welterweight in a heavyweights body. 😆 But these people are all what I call freaks of nature or human evolution. People that were so good at what they did that they were considered once in a generation types of people. They were supremely gifted at their crafts, it was almost like they had some type of angelic abilities to do what they did. Everyone else looked like amateurs trying to do what they did. Smh 😆

Thank you Corkystorky for the heads up on 17.45. I missed it on my first pass.

[@CoreyWhite-dr1xh]

I don't know how good Bruce Lee was, but I respected what I did know, what I did see, I only seen perfection as he was, in the art of self defense towards any known man to ever go up against him , his discipline to fight with honor , not ever one dirty move, never a man down kick, but the best man to man stand against since ever....

[@cuzz63]

Some people claim that he was a violent asshole and according to Jesse Glover he did kick a guy in the head after knocking him down. Allegedly fracturing the guys skull.

[@tubucoco]

​You can't believe everything that people say, man. Time and history has showed me how much people lie and deceive people. I don't believe one word of that story you commented on.

[@williamblaney3316]

The thing i think a lot of people forget is bruces fighting method was actually intended to END fights with lethal strikes which are now banned in fighting leagues. If he actually fought for real it would be hard to control ingrained strikes which come without thinking. It is why his style is banned from MMA. Personal opinion.

[@staywelle]

So, Lee should have been a “fighter” taking the route of tournament and then become a pro? Isn’t that short changing a genius? What “fighter” excelled in all the areas that Lee did? He probably would have excelled in anything he set his mind to. He did what he loved, artist ,scientist, philosopher, author, etc. and he discussed it all with anyone who would listen. He did give us his best shot and for a moment everything changed. Fortunately, for us he didn’t turn into an aging club fighter that no one remembers.

I think people also forget Bruce never needed to be a fight competitor because Bruce was already making money.

He was a martial artist and physical enthusiast.

When guys from their era speak about the guy from their era - often I’m sceptical.

It’s crazy. Bruce must have been something else man

The video is essentially content free. The Key take away, was that when Sammo tried to kick, Bruce already intercepted him. Thats it.

[@redbunnytail9528]

My mom knew Bruce Lee. He move into area for a while. He a kid. My mom a bit older, like teenage year. Kids know each other on street. A lot going on in Hong Kong. Beatles perform in Hong Kong in the 60's. It a big event. Lee leave big 'void,' when he gone. My interest with Lee as older person, how he use video games train real life skill. He definitely someone, who could do that. You know? Like character in movie, who autistic or something, watch kung fu movie, become master, take on evil in the world.

Those who sh1t on Jit Kuen Do saying it doesn't stand a chance in an MMA ring doesn't know how controlled Bruce was when he was sparring. His martial art form was designed for lightning quick lethality, not for tap outs. Anyone with the misfortune of facing it in full expression never get a chance to tell about it. Those who chirp about it has never faced the full barrage of JKD. Hypothetically, would any practitioner of Judo, TKD, BJJ or any other combination like to be caught in a narrow dead end alley with a JKD exponent in a fight to the death situation? Your eyes and groins would be gouged out before you even get into your stance.

I have one theory as to why he's a lil over looked today. 1. His size, your avg or above avg 140 pounder doesn't come close to the level of athleticism, skill, discipline, and unreal speed He had. He moved so fast he had to slow down his movements so the camera could catch it. 2. Bring a actor. Because he was a movie star actor. Ppl think what he did was all acting. Completely neglecting the years of hard training and mastering crafts he went through. If everyone from your time says your HIM... your HIM!!! He would be HIM in any decade or time period.

then what was the big secret you were saying?

[@JamaalCherry-k7q]

I personally trained an older Asian man in Alameda, CA and he was an associate of Bruce Lee. And he said Bruce Lee was an amazing martial artists but he wasn’t the best. He said Bruce was very small and only could beat guys 15-20 pounds bigger. My guy said there was an underground fighting league only for Chinese in San Francisco and there were guys around 200 pounds, who were way bigger and would destroy Bruce Lee. They said the fighting league was only Chinese only but Bruce taught non-Chinese who wound up being really good, mainly African Americans who he took to the league. And they used kind of half martial arts, half street tactics and beat Chinese greats. A lot of people lost money betting and this pissed the traditionalists off. So the rumor was they put a hit on Bruce, like a hex of some sort and he died soon after.

[@JimmyPaige-v3w]

Bruce Lee was just good in movies, same thing with Jet Li, which nobody believes would be flying and doing couple of kicks. I only admire Jacky Chan because his stunts were real, at the end of the movies he made, there’s always some scenes that it was a real thing that happened, also almost got killed or paralyzed while making a movie, falling out of the tree
