I'm comprehending fine. You're saying that the fight would come down to who gets the first damaging blow. So let's say they are squaring off and neither is cheap shotting the other. You really think Bruce Lee can get close to Iron Mike or any other professional fighter for that matter and not get royally fricked up?
I'm saying it's a misguided question and that's all that matters, yes. If anyone can do just that, Lee or Tyson, it's over. But it's over in a way that people don't want.
I'm saying that in this type of argument, everyone's analysis is really limited to their idea of how it should play out. Everyone is arguing for an epic battle of each fighter playing to their strengths. Punching. Feinting. Blocking, etc. And no one wants to see a kick to the junk, but that's how this really would (or at least should) go down on both accounts.

Again I'm talking about bar fights and things like that not professional athletes trained to fight. I apologize if that wasn't clearly implied and your jimmies were rustled.

I like both of these fighters, but I give the win to Lee, because I feel Tyson will be too aggressive and Lee will be able to take advantage, will Lee be able to go blow for blow, I doubt it, but how many round houses to the head can Tyson take? I just feel Lee's menu is larger to pull from
Jesus. Do you guys even watch modern MMA fighting which is as close to anything goes as we have now?
How many roundhouse kicks do you see performed in those types of fights? How many guys to you see knocked out with those? And lets not say at the lower levels, but the higher levels?
It does happen, but it is rare. The much more commonly used kick is the muay thai style of kicking and much of that is to the legs which in an anything goes match is often more effective for the energy expended and more likely to actually land.
Lee didn't know Muay Thai. He didn't know modern BJJ. He wasn't a great wrestler. He would not be able to hold up to the modern UFC heavyweight champion or many other superbly trained and athletically gifted athletes that now are seen at the upper levels of the UFC.

In my defense, I did say I think Lee would sweep a leg and take out a knee at the start
What do I win???

I agree that if it's no holds barred it would come down to this. I'm not sure a kick to the junk would stop a pissed off Tyson in his prime though.

First of all, that is a demonstration for show. Second of all, if Lee is so devastating, why did those "unblockable" punches not even phase that guy?
I didn't say Lee was so devastating, you did.
The punches didn't phase him because Lee stopped his punch before impact, which shows both the speed and control Lee had.
And the guy was no chump, that's Vic Moore.

Tyson in his prime? Tyson would win easily. Bruce Lee is a joke, btw.

I kind of think Lee wins, but it's not an easy fight for either.
I think Ivan Drago beats both.

Ok go pick a fight with a guy who is bigger and stronger than you and let us all know how it goes.

Is he not talking about Boxing?
So, now we are saying would Lee bee Tyson at boxing?

Well, that is certainly a well thought out and stated argument...not.

This isn't even an argument, Lee's whole philosophy behind JKD was why even get hit? His striking distance was insane. I'm also luke warm to JKD like some other poster said. Not only would Lee win but Tyson wouldn't land one punch on that guy. Fight would be over in 60 seconds or less.

Watch this all the way through. Pay attention to the teaching, footwork, leg speed, power, and agility.
Anyone who thinks he was just an "actor" is blinded by bias ignorance.

I think that an argument could be made for either, but i'm going to go with Tyson. At the end of the day, Lee is giving up almost 100lbs, too much mass. Also, its not like Tyson couldn't take a punch.
I think its Tyson
