<Lmaoo>
This is so comical wrong but I am done arguing about it.
Americans and their fascination with actors is really mind numbing. This is an american phenomenon. The worshiping of celebrities. It has created monsters like the Kardashians and Trump were you really think a society tries to lobotomize itself (not that Trumps opponents are much better this is not vs. republicans).
Lee was great at marketing some asian mumbojumbo philosophy he copied and never lived by himself. It was more important to make money and live the good life. Nowhere better than with ancient asian secrets for deluded hippie folks.
Its so funny when you hear people talk about that there wasnt much high level MA in his time so he had to create it, while there were a ton of killers in several martial arts well known and some also cross trained. But he HAD to create his own MA you know because <Lmaoo> and for sure never to compete in anything substantial.
You want a real pioneer for MMA and not some joke:
Take John Bluming for example. Now that is someone who deeply influenced stand up and development of studying different styles. A true martial artist.
Lee would have gotten a reality check the first time he would have entered serious boxing / wrestling etc training but he avoided that like the plague.
In the end its the story about a poor guy who made something out of himself but had a deep inferiority complex so he had to overstate everything and could never face a real threat in martial arts. In other terms he could never really learn anything. His fight with annother "grand master" was just a small brawl with a waiter who trained a little. Thats the scale Lees real talent was.
But people want to believe. Oh man talk about mass delusion
