No, I believe one of the earlier ultimate-pit winners: Horace Gracie, was not a particulary built man. He looked like an average joe, but he submitted his victims to a hold that they could not get out of. Also I would not want to take Jet Li on, would any of you?????/Just Asking - seoul62.......
Gracie was great at sweeping and grappling into submission holds but his striking skills were limited.
He was 6’1” and 180
Bruce Lee was 5’7” (maybe) and weighed 140 lbs
Jet Li is 5’6” and 145 lbs
