If Trayvon beat him up and Bruce took him out with a karate death blow, would that mean Bruce was racist?

His enduring spirit of youthful rebellion and a willingness to fight big oppressors may have spooked city leaders prone to being big oppressors.

I remember watching the original Green Hornet TV show in the 60s. Even then it was clear to me that Bruce Lee could kick the ass of anyone on TV: Green Hornet, Batman, Robin, etc. The dude should have had his own series, but discrimination prevented this. One can only imagine where Lee would be today had he survived.

Born in America but raised in Hong Kong, Lee died of brain swelling at age 32, at the height of his fame.

Brain swelling caused by what? He was awfully young. My son is that age.

He was what? 110 lbs?

There is no way a 110 lb can beat any 290 pound guy, unless that guy is retarded.

Imagine Paully Shore fighting Shaq. It aint gonna happen.

It’s all fantasy.

My kid wrestles nationally at 220 pounds, and there ain’t no Olympic wrestler at 110 pounds that could even hope to wrestle him.

Now basketball in the 70’s was a different thing, there wasn’t much athleticism (flame on), it was all about height. So yeah, maybe he could beat one lame ass b-ball player.

In reality, Chuck Norris kicked his ass, as did Bill “Superfoot” Wallace. In an exhibition against George Foreman, he took a softie and buckled. There was no contest, George said it was like fighting a 5 year old.

George even offered to fight him for real, for some ungodly amount of money, but it never happened because of the Bruce Lee camp.

Not to say he wouldn’t whip anyone his weight, but the rest was just showmanship.

No way he could take on a heavyweight, or even Bolo Yung. Not a chance in hell. A great screen presence, but not a contender in any realm. He did “OK” in Chinese boxing, which was weight regulated. He was only champion for one year if I remember right.

There will be a new Bruce Lee movie using new technology that will stun people.
