That's BS because after Bruce was tapped out, he made THE GAME OF DEATH and if you remember he tapped out Kareem Abdul Jabar. That was done specifically to show how to win fights in every different situation.

bruce also ran the first mma school and wrote the first book on it

And of course a couple others said Royce simply because he was the first they had seen. What do you guys think?

This guy right here:



The Gracies and Bruce Lee had tremendous limitations on their styles. None of them were the total package, nobody had the total package until this man came along. A man who can kill you from the top, from the bottom, from the side, or standing up. Any which way he pleases. Bruce taught very little grappling and submission, he preferred stand up. The Gracies were ok but they were exposed by the great Sakuraba as being quite limited when an opponent could neutralize their ground game.

what did he do to Kareem?

i have all the Bruce movies, but i do not feel like watching the shitty replacement actor in Game of Death for like 2 hours to find out what move he used

Just a basic headlock choke. Similar to how Coleman finished Severn in their UFC fight many years back.

sh*tty replacement actor? They used Yuen Biao and Chung Li Kim, 2 very skilled martial artists to fill in for Bruce in Game of Death. Bruce Lee himself even used Yuen Biao to do his stunts for him in his other movies like Enter the Dragon.
Those guys are very good martial artists. Obviously they sure as hell ain't Bruce Lee but they're quite good I think in their own ways. And Chung Li Kim vs Casanavo Wong in the Green House was a very good fight scene choreographed by the great Sammo Hung. That was a cut scene from Game of Death which you can see in the deleted scenes section of HK Legends release of Game of Death.

Watch the beginning of Enter the Dragon, Bruce Lee taps out Sammo Hung. Granted he used some kind of wacky submission that you would probably see in pro wrestling, but he used a submission. I believe he also armbarred Sammo but he escaped? Not sure on that last part.
