so who really knows, regardless of if he was an actor, a martial artist, or a fighter, he showed more drive and dedication to what ever endeavor he persued than most people you will ever meet. so if he were rolling with the best and putting 100%....against his own weight class, i doubt he would be a total push over like lee haters want you to think.
thats evident from just looking at his life in general without any "mysteries" or any of that dumb crap.
A man has only one death. That death may be as weighty as Mt. Tai, or it may be as light as a goose feather. It all depends upon the way he uses it....

They'd kick my ass.

he was what he was: hardly invincible (as some seem still to hold him out as being), but certainly an innovator for his time; without doubt he was gifted in many ways; that said, "if" he were around today in his prime, while I think he'd hold his own, especially in his own weight division, he wouldn't be nearly as singular a stand-out as he was 35 years ago - of course, in a way, he is at least partially responsible for the changes that have occurred, in a sense creating the very conditions that would make him less of an anomaly...

Most people around just seem to need to find somebody to worship as if the person didn't crap like anybody else and die like anybody else, or have faults or problems, don't you think?
Queens, kings, princesses, empresses, emperors, presidents, Hollywood Royalty, Paris Hilton, Beckham, whoever ...
So for martial arts it's Bruce Lee for a lot of people, right?

This is 100% true, I swear. Before Lee's death, he was working on a new style. He was inspired by a obscure Southern Chinese hand puppet, based upon lobster heads, to create a more efficient style, but designed for children to learn. He would have used the lobster head puppet style to create a whole new generation of Chinese fighters
right Chris!

This makes sense seeing how Lee weighed in at about 135lbs. (That's 20lbs lighter than the light weights in the UFC) and Crocop is a heavy weight.

Do you really think Crocop could catch him? It seems like the match would be a lot of BL dancing around the ring getting off a shot now and then, and Crocop trying to keep up with him.

Yes I do. And at his weight, Lee would probably fly 10 rows out of the ring when he did!

I don't think Crocop could catch him. But yeah, if he did, it's highly doubtful BL would survive. There would be a BL sandwich lying broken on the mat.

The Steroids of today are awesome and undetectible mostly; why compare an athlete of the 70's with those of today ? They did not have the drugs etc to make them great. If they of today did not take the modern drugs of today they wouldnt be where they are look at Lance Armstrong for example. Thje training of the 70's was much more intense than today so give them the roids and no telling what would have been. KC
