re: Let's talk about Bruce Lee

That's why I said "tend". No doubt there have been a few of them, but it just doesn't happen that often.
Even though MMA fights spend MUCH more time standing than they used to, fighters just cannot be successful in the sport unless they've spent TONS of time in the clinch and on the ground.
The TKD fighters you're referring to have also learned take down defense. I don't know if Bruce Lee knew the first thing about take down defense. That's the main reason I said he'd get choked to sleep in less than 2 minutes.

I wasn't talking about Bruce Lee.
I was just commenting that a lot of fighters are coming in with TKD and Karate bases now as well as Judo.

Bruce studied freestyle wrestling extensively actually.
In fact, his Kung fu studies were relatively short in conparison when he started thinking about JKD. The basis for his martial art was a lot of boxing and wrestling. He thought of Mma long before many people did, and he had the same approach as what people have today. That is streamlining what works.
He felt western boxing and wrestling combined with catch wrestling, judo, and the various kicking arts was practical
