Karate? I'm with you on VD being legit and Seagal a fraud but Lee was a kung fu master and discover Jeet Kune Do and was probably the most accomplished fighter to ever live second to his master IP man.

Someone just go ahead and bump the Tyson vs Lee thread again lol.

he didn't discover jeet kune do.
the most "accomplished" fighter was probably Mas Oyama. LINK

You need to learn what "discovered" means. JKD was founded by him, much like TKD was founded by general Choi. JKD is more of a school of thought than an actual style and is closely related to wing chun.

JKD is a combo (if I remember correctly) of about 25% wing chun, Chinese/American boxing and footwork that comes from fencing. Also high kicks were incorporated at one point.

Keep in mind he also has black belts in karate, judo and kendo.

Also keep in mind I said I would have to go with Norris since he was a professional fighter.

Whats funny is that Segal said he taught Machida and Silva that front kick they used to knock out opponents

He created JKD



Norris and Lee are the only one really debatable imo.

theres a quote somewhere about what Lee said about it. Lee was a Wing Chun practitioner, so its natural that its what you can tell most about wing chun.

the most notable JKD guy is Insonanto, which is the only person that Lee gave permission to teach the system.

all the modern JKD I've seen is pretty much a mish mash of wing chun and Kali
