Let's talk about Bruce Lee
Oh shite, here we go again. 10 pages min.
Ok, let's think about this; How many guys have had Karate or Tae Kwon Do as their base and been MMA champs? The reason they don't tend to do well in MMA is because of their stance (their legs would get destroyed by a Muay Thai player) and because they hit "at" targets, not "through" targets...not to mention that they spend ZERO time in the clinch, much less on the ground.
I would say that ANY current UFC lightweight AND below would be able to get him to the ground and strangle him unconscious in less than 2 minutes.

Anthony Pettis (Tae Kwon Do)
GSP (Kyokushin karate)
Anderson Silva (mixture of Thai and Tae Kwon Do)
Chuck Lidell (Kenpo Karate)
Lyoto Machida (Shotokan Karate)
Benson Henderson (Tae Kwno Do)
Actually Tae Kwon Do is starting to show up strong in MMA because they can kick from more angles than Thai Boxers and fighters have learned how to defend against Thai boxers.
