Bruce Lee As A fighter

[mickey]

Greetings,

Bruce Lee's edge was Western Boxing. It gave him an incredible advantage over other MA's in physical conditioning, endurance and timing. There was no binary, "and step", approach. He had continuous combinations when karateka did not. He was a Ferrari in a world of Model Ts. If we jumped the timeline of Bruce Lee's arrival back two decades and had Bruce Lee arriving in the US in 1941, at age 19. when boxing was still a big deal, would Bruce Lee have had the same impact?

I have read that Bruce Lee studied footage of well known boxers of the day. I have yet to read about him going around and challenging them.
