Bruce Lee in the octagon

I would say yes,
Because of Lee's multiple discipline fighting
styles, and he would have been able to adapt
to the Octogon.
I don't think any of his fights would go past the first
round with Lee winning with quick KO's

you will here Hapkido mentioned several times.
I studied under Dr. Grandmaster Pal for 2.5 years.
in Westminister, CA.
He also trained my father when he was an agent and wen on this trip to South Korea.
When I signed up at Master Pal's studio, he had asked me about my "Fadder, and said, I train your fadder too, he good student, learn fast, don't disappoint your fadder"

He was ultimatley disciplined.
If he was living today, I think he would own his weight class because he would master the new styles.
If you dropped his old version into the ring, he would be at the lower end of the elite fighters in his weight class.

Why? What if BL was in his prime and alive right now and put into the ring with GSP?
I know what your answer is, but I think you would be wrong. Sorry. :sadwave:
THIS coming from a guy who obviously knows EVERYTHING about MMA :mj07:
Prop Bet 43-85
Fighter vs. Fighter 316-493
Parlays 127-222
-22.56 Joe Rogans
he prolly would have held his own in UFC 1. In UFC 148 he would get destroyed by the top guys. Do well against the rest KIck likes to watch. Tough guys in bars.
MMA is very similar to Bruce Lee's jeet kune do philosophy of using what works from various styles/arts and discarding what doesn't work. Lee may have been an undefeated street fighter back in his day, but that's because his opponents were limited to their particular style. Although Lee was a freak when it came to endurance and lb. for lb. strength, I think he would have just been an average MMA fighter. The better MMA fighters have wrestling or jiu-jitsu backgrounds. You never hear of the top MMA fighters having a jeet kune do background and there's probably a good reason for it.
