Alright Planeteers, I've been arguing on message boards with people about this off and on for a couple years now and I want to get CP's input on it. The question is this: Who would win in a fight between Bruce Lee and Mike Tyson in his prime? Let's hear it! [Reply]

Here is the physics behind the punch according to this guy.
This is what I'm talking about. This is about all you'll find on the man that isn't some cinematic choreographing.
Right now, Tyson has probably the most explosive knockout compilation you can find for a single person on youtube... against elite competition. [Reply]

Buster Douglas, a no-name chump love sucker, gave Tyson's bitch ass all he could handle. Mike Tyson is a joke. Anyone who thinks Tyson could take Lee doesn't know shit about actual hand to hand combat.

Mike Tyson would NEVER catch him. Lee would break his legs on a sweep and that would be that. [Reply]

Truth. He was an actor, a showman. He was probably the most skilled martial artist of all time, but that shit doesn't help you in a street fight. Hundreds of fighters far less skilled than Tyson in his prime would have had no problems knocking Lee's tiny ass out. [Reply]
