Hell yeah Bumm... MMA fans I greatly appreciate. As to Zeld 2.0, Bruce is seen as the most famous Martial Artist, and most famous Martial Art master, but lets pretend this is baseball and we have a fan allstar voting. Bruce wins on the fan write in, but the players and coaches don't even cast him a single vote.
There isn't a single top 20 mma artist (and i'm betting this goes to top 1000, 2000, 3000, etc.) that doesn't believe he could kick Bruce's ass in his (Lee's) prime.
Still. Its kinda like the Rickson Gracie dilemma (for you mma fans) out there.
Rickson was bad ass, but how much of his legacy is based upon the fact that he fought a much more unenlightened general opposition... To put it another way, imagine babe ruth, not completing against African Americans, Dominicans, Mexicans, nor having weight training, diet, training, conditioning, etc....
He may have a potential to be great even in current times (thru a time machine), but he probably isn't going to be at the very top of the game...
(If you're listening Bruce, don't kick my ass when I croak).
