monkeygirl Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 Bruce Lee was, as you say, great. But can we really say the best ever? He was publicized so we saw his greatness, but what about Shaolin Monks, etc.? Bruce Lee was a pioneer of his day, and an icon. But to say he was the best ever, when we have no idea what was out there way back when, is.... is..... well it's sacrelige. Anyway, I'm being technical and boring again. 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.
tessone Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 TigerKorea, this is a forum for the discussion of ideas about martial arts. If you don't want to read people talking, then don't. Additionally, there's nothing wrong with making criticisms of one's own art. Just because something is from the East doesn't mean it's perfect; likewise, just because a person is an American doesn't mean they have nothing worthwhile to say. Thinking otherwise is bigotry based on culture. Chris TessoneBrown Belt, Kuk Sool Won
monkeygirl Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 That is exactly what I wanted to say, I just couldn't put it into words...well said!! 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.

taezee Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 i personally began training in martial arts specifically taekwondo because of watching films of bruce lee..but realistcally time marches on..there are plenty of martial artist who would beat the little dragon now..he was ahead of his time when he was alive..but comparing him to the modern day martial artist would be like comparing joe wieder to the modern day bodybuilder they both where inovators and great in thier time but the world has moved on theres a new level of excellence involved...again i love bruce and have always been a great fan..but the martial arts are different now..they have evolved to a whole new level...he wil always be one of the greats..but not the greatest of al time..that remains to be seen!!

It takes sacrifice to be the best.There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.
