Who would have won a fight between Bruce Lee and Mike Tyson ?

Other than movies

Did Bruce Lee ever fight anyone?

he broken plenty of necks in his day. Oh wait...he hasnt

Saw him rip a guys heart out once. But that was in a movie
Not aware of Lee ever fighting to the point he has to knock someone out or get knocked out
popeye the sailor would have beat both of their asses !



Not without a sufficient amount of potassium, magnesium, and vitamins B6, B9, and E.
 
Tyson.

Lee had the skills to overcome a size difference against a REGULAR man...but he was just too little for someone like Tyson in his prime.

Also Tyson was no slouch on speed or footwork. His footwork was actually quite remarkable.

We are not talking the Flash versus a Turtle.

We sre talking a tiny man with know how versus a big man with only slightly less know how.

Why "slightly less know how"? Getting to be heavyweight champion of the world is at least as knowledgeable and accomplished as wushu 'master.'
Because Tyson didnt have offensive knowledge from his legs or on his back...that anyone is aware of, thats what I meant.
 
i guess we will never know .. but i do know that mma fighter and legend called out Tyson and Tyson didnt take the bait.
Tyson's been past his prime for over 20years, that would have been a silly thing to do.

MMA guys take fighting to a different level than boxers. We all saw James Tony get embarrassed. Even though he was way past his prime, he was still one of the best pure boxers in the heavy weight/light heavy weight division of all time.
I wouldnt put the idea to bed based on Toney's performance...that would be ridiculous.

He was old, punchy and came into it INCREDIBLY out of shape.

A half dozen world class heavyweights in their Prime ...fighting in MMA... would settle it. It could go either way...but a boxers hands are slick and dangerous.

For littler guys...MMA has a clean advantage over boxing because there's less knockout power in general across the division.

Floyd Mayweather isnt knocking anyone out, for example...he hits like a girl and his hands always break. His last k.o. was hitting a man who was paused with his hands down, not counting Conor's loss due to exhaustion

randy Coture was old too. In general these guys in MMA are better fighters. We’re now at a point where MMA and boxers are in terrific shape, so that doesn’t matter. The boxers are susceptible to take down moves, and don’t know what to do when they’re on the ground,
Part 2 of that is true, but take down/grappling defense is rather journeyman that anyone coordinated has little issue with

thats why chuck liddel rarely didnt have a fist fight

oh yes .. he was in several street fights in his youth ..his style of Kung Fu was developed for street fighting .

Fanboy thinks Tyson was never in a street fight?
not a fanboy i never really cared for Kung Fu movies .. i won 2 bets on the Tyson Holyfield fights . never realy liked Tyson either so i have no dog in the fight . just stating what i believe.

boxers are creatures of habit. They’re not used to defending shin kicks, takedowns and submissions. The MMA guys have more in their arsenal, both of us can agree on that, and they’re just as tough as boxers these days, in general.
 
... take down/grappling defense is rather journeyman that anyone coordinated has little issue with.....


Not against someone who is expert at takedowns and jujutsu by any stretch.
 
the question we should be asking is what if Tyson would have trained as an mma fighter in his youth !! now that would be something !

MMA and boxing are different arts. An MMA fighter throwing punches is nothing like a serious boxer.

No, the question is what the outcome would be if both Tyson and Lee had been on the same airplane when it crashed into a volcano and scientists were able to salvage parts of each and make two part-Tyson/part-Lee cyborgs programmed to fight to the death.

I didn’t say otherwise. They both have their advantages, but ultimately I would view the scale tipped in favor of the MMA guy considering everything I said

The creature of habit thing is kind of a charicature, and sorta implies that in a 12 to 17wk training camp...any man, let alone just a boxer...wouldn't have the wherewithall to switch a fighting strategy. Thats not true, man...I can tell you from experience it doesnt even take 1 whole sparring session of a different discipline to convert your brain to being fully engaged in the new set of rules, for moves.

Id say...skillset advantage goes to the MMA guy but the tactical striking of an MMA guy with his hands, particularly, is no place close to a boxer of similar status in his respective field. Thats what makes the cross over interesting...the overall skillset is advantageous to the MMA folks and the footwork and hand strikes of the boxers would be advantageous.

Not to mention...I wouldnt count some boxers out on the mats, either...because most of the elite ones are freak athletes in general.

Its probably like...boxers in their prime vs. mma in their prime....mma wins 30 outta 50 or something like that
