His only weakness was a painkiller

So what your saying is being a Chad will give me the ability to kick anyones ass?

>>42499728
yes
if it's for a movie and the script has you winning the fight in it
otherwise you will get your ass beat, just like Bruce had his in every fight he had with skilled martial artists

Not realizing every martial art is just dirty boxing and defending against dirty boxing + ground grapples, limb breaks, etc.

I think that Bruce Lee had a good martial arts base. I think militaries like harder martial arts like sanda rather than softer Kung Fu style martial arts. Boxing, kickboxing style self defense favors stronger and athletic people where first to kill or incapacitate is the first objective.

That shoot to kill mentality of martial arts isnt what people think of when seeing Hollywood films. Similarly car chases and shootouts in Hollywood are Bombastic.

Bruce Li, Jet Li, and stunt style gymanistics that Jackie Chan have made popular are emphased for athletic showmanship in movies but aren't great for actual weapons.

Most fights are about having great basics and avoiding being caught with a knock out or lock. Any martial art that skips to the showmanship is just acrobatics for example emphasis on forms or katas.

chinamen have too many people and food is scarce,so it is beneficial if everyone is lean, they are very against cultivating mass and will try to shame anyone who is getting beefy and studly

Except Bruce was against traditional kung fu in reality

>By the start of 1964, Bruce began to double-down on his earlier criticism of “ineffective” styles and techniques, and began given lecture-heavy demonstrations featuring stinging rebukes towards “dry-land swimmers” practicing the “classical mess.” By contrast, he referred to his own approach as “scientific street fighting,” and made a habit of demonstrating other styles and then methodically explaining why they wouldn’t work in a street fight. One of the styles he liked to perform and then dismiss was Northern Shaolin, and he began to air these viewpoints to some very large and qualified audiences.

>At Ed Parker’s inaugural Long Beach Tournament in August, Bruce delivered a scathing lecture that disparaged many existing practices, including such common techniques as the horse stance. “He just got up there and started trashing people,” explains Barney Scollan, an 18-year-old competitor that day. Although Bruce’s showing at Long Beach is often painted in glossy terms, many of those in attendance corroborate the polarizing nature of his demonstration, in which half the crowd perceived him as brash and condescending. As longtime karate teacher Clarence Lee remembers it: ““Guys were practically lining up to fight Bruce Lee after his performance at Long Beach.”

>A few weeks later before a capacity crowd at the Sun Sing Theater in the heart of San Francisco’s Chinatown, Bruce gave a similar demonstration, and even went as far as to criticize the likes of Lau Bun and TY Wong by declaring “these old tigers have no teeth.”
