I hope they're your videos and not Beerdy's. You're about the only person I trust as a source for the particular stories that you've covered about Bruce Lee.
For those of you who don’t know, Bolo Yeung is still alive and well as of late 2019, just before the Covid pandemic sltarted. He lives in my city and I used to see him walking down the street in my hood. He is not as buff as he was, but still very muscular for someone in his 80’s. A friend of mine who also lives in my area mentioned that he still works out at our local LA Fitness. In fact this friend ran into Bolo a few times at this gym and he even asked my friend to spot him. By all accounts, he is a very reserved and quiet person and not like the character on screen. Maybe someday if I meet him again, I will ask him if he and Lee really fought off screen.
@@rdeh1678Not true. In interviews, Chuck never mentioned anything about him being better than Bruce. Only that he "taught Bruce" how to kick higher than the waist line, which is also false because Bruce can be seen kicking very high in demonstrations before he ever met Chuck and later during his on-screen test for the Kato role in The Green Hornet.
@@Quantum3691 Chuck Norris also said he has never seen a fighter more dedicated than Bruce Lee, then continued to say he doesn't think we will ever see another Bruce Lee.
@@StylordzNetwork That's right. Unlike many martial artists at that time, Bruce was obsessed with making it in the U.S. That burning desire was what made him excel and stand out from the crowd.
They were really good friends and for the sake of a good fight in the movie they planned it out- however amerika being "amerikka" had to have a scrawny, non-athletic, plain, 'suburban' John Saxon get all shine ...of course.
Just because theyre friends doesnt mean they wouldnt spar to enahnce their skills.. .u think because 2 pro basketball players or boxers are freinds they wont test their skills against each other? As long as they know its not personal it should be all good
Bruce understood body mechanics and could read people very well. He was a trained dancer so he could look at a person and have idea if what they were going to do. Unfortunately there is a lot of myth around the man and what he actually did. The movie The Dragon pushed the myth in a lot of ways. No matter what Bruce changed Martial Arts forever.
Perfectly correct he knew how to lead a fight Like A dancing. Partner and what the response would be. Good thing he wasn't in the military would have been the perfect tactician Appear to be open and vulnerable Having preplanned and limited your response. let you strike and Counter Simultaneously before you recoil Taking you down.
He beat chuck Norris in real life they were friends and trained for 2 years together, Chuck never liked to speak about their fight, the 90s movie didn't do much to push Bruces legend...at one point in the 80s Chinese shoes/slippers were really popular kids wanted to be like Bruce Lee, after all those years
Yes, you’ve touched on several good points about Bruce such as his understanding of body mechanics, being a trained dancer, and I could add; a great boxer and wrestler ( he demonstrated these two techniques in ETD movie), which brings me to your last valid point about the many myths surrounding Bruce Lee because ETD was one of his movies that started a lot of myths and I think that this is some of the reasons why he was so misunderstood. I recall in an interview that one of his personal desires and plans was to straighten out those myths once he established himself and tell his own true story through future movies had he not died so young. *Thanks for your valid points!
The craziest thing is 50 years after his death Bruce Lee is still loved and still classed as a GOAT. That is his legacy. People loose fights, but his impact on the world in his short life is testament to his character and him as an incredible human being.
bang on 🔥 same way everyone regards Muhammad Ali as the GOAT of boxing despite a few losses it's the impact they had on the sport that stands the test of time.. 50 years on and kids still know who they are
It's because he died at the height of his popularity. Just like so many other stars and musicians have done. He never got the chance to grow old, get in trouble, go away for awhile and then try to make a comeback, Etc. He's always remembered at the peak of his dame. That's the way he will always remain, and honestly will probably keep growing as it has been.
who says he is the GOAT.... GOAT of what exactly? Kids like fighting movovies....Or something more substantial? You think he would survive one single minute in mma? or whatever? looool
Man...imagine if Bruce never died. The movies he would've done in the 70s and 80s when Arnie and Sly were competing action superstars. I want to live in that universe.
Since he was so attracted to fame, movies, acting, he kinda seemed like a show-off, not some serious martial artist who keeps to himself and who does not seek other peoples amazement of what he does. Yes, he didnt knew to fight, and reason why he was fast, from what i can conclude, is that he mostly trained like 3-4 basic attacks, that are most effective, until he mastered them, while other people train 10 or more attacks and they are average in them.
Tom Kelly a 7th degree black belt under Ed Parker founder of Khenpo Karate told me that "after 4 years training under Ed Parker's tutelage 'no one could beat him,NO ONE ' he (Bruce) was just unbeatable. I (Tom Kelly) was quick but he(Bruce Lee) would hit me 3 times while I was trying to hit him once. He was just unbeatable." Tom Kelly lives and teaches in OK if he is still alive. Tom Kelly was a great fighter himself.
Hey Man I didn’t get your name, but thanks to Goldenbell Training for this commentary about the million dollar question: Why Bruce and Bolo didn’t fight in ETD. I remember literal intense excitement and anticipation when watching ETD in the theater for the first time! While I was overwhelmingly excited and satisfied with what was Bruce Lee’s overall best performance (my opinion); my only disappointment was that missing fight and I knew then like I still know these days that I wasn’t the only person on the planet who felt that way. I’m still not really sure about a lot of what’s true or not concerning Bruce because there’s megatons of rumors about His life personally and professionally, but thanks for your commentary because it made a little more sense than what I’ve heard in quite some time. I learned some new info and recalled info that I heard before or forgot. If Bruce hadn’t died so young and early, I’d still be looking for that fight with Bolo in latter movies because I surely believe that He had big expectations and plans due after the phenomenal success of Enter The Dragon, (this title interprets that He really was just getting started)! So in closing, thanks again for such great commentary! 🥋
If Bruce fought Bolo and Han who would Roper fight? The movie wouldn't really be balanced because they did all that story building for Roper only to have him fade into the background.
So it take John to beat Bolo in the movie of Enter the Dragon whoever made this movie is really stupid skinny guy like John is ain't going to defeat Bolo.
I think bolo Bruce actually faught. Because they never had a fight scene together. And after Bruce Lee passed away. Bolo started making movies with wannabe Bruce Lee
No my friend, there is no death, we are forever, it's this vessel that dies, the mind & ego dead. We are the SEEING, the presence Awareness, we are God because God is everything in Creation 👍
@@markrene6108 Death is Real And Jesus Christ Conquered Death By Death On The Cross Repent and believe in the gospel seek the Lord while he still may be found ✝️
@@markrene6108We are definitely not forever. Celebrities will be remembered for a bit longer. All those who remember us will die a few decades or less after us.
Bolo Yeung looks so different now, he looks much slimmer and sort of has that "aging master" look to him, almost what you'd expect Bruce Lee to look like today if he were still alive.
Jim kelly said in a interview originally John Saxons character was supposed to die and Jims character was supposed to be the one fighting side by side with Bruce in the end..but Johns manager used the his acting experience over Jim so the script was changed...sad considering what could've been ...that bruce and jim teamup wouldve been way better
Nah, Roper was the much better more nuanced character. Williams was one dimensional. Jim Kelly is great but the way his character behaved, with all that arrogance, he needed to be taken out early
@THE GADFLY GANG lol majority of the characters in the movie were one dimensional at the end of the day it was a martial arts movie ...name a martial artist from that era of the 70s, 80s and 90s known for their acting lol. John was the better more experienced actor.... not martial artist which was obvious in the movie. As far as Jims character thats how he was written...because of the alterations of his and John's characters ...he could've had a different personality but we'll never know because of John's ego
Regardless, it's sad Jim Kelly wasn't in more major MA movies. His character was awesome. Unfortunately killed off, but maybe there could have been a prequal movie leading up to where he had to flee the USA after the bad COPs fight. No doubt he would have been fighting bad guys leading up to those events. I see on IMDB he made about a dozen more appearances. Looks like a lot of "blaxploitation" type of films, obviously not reaching the nontertiary of EtD.
@joeneighbor yeah the character Williams was definitely more memorable than Roper the cocky gambler lol..allegedly Jim said Bruce had plans for them doing more movies together but unfortunately Bruce passed away
Great video ! I’ve been teaching kung fu for 36 years. Beerdys videos are definitely made up stories. I grew up and i saw ENTER THE DRAGON at the theatre. The movies are exactly that. Bruce was a legitimate legend in the martial Arts community when he set his mind and body free of all styles/systems. Bruce would have destroyed most people then and now. His speed was the difference.
I was fascinated when I saw Bolo in movies as a kid, as the anti-hero. That man put in serious bodybuilding and fitness work and had a character persona that carried thru his roles in various movies. And, Dude was massive.....
Hey thanks GoldenBell Training for sharing these very cool videos and dispelling a ton of untrue rumours that have transpired over the years *Thumbs Up"
He is fast because he throws his attacks with zero power plus the film used then made motion capture seam faster yes he was quick but I have seen much faster hand speed using science to break it down. He would be much slower if he threw with intent
@@rdeh1678 oh yeah genius? Let me trust your expert knowledge. How old are you and state your credentials smh. Everyone real fighters even Lewis said he had heavy weight power.
@@lordoffaiyum9727 I am I my 50s now, been doing martial arts since 1976, and still to this day I still train . I have competed around the world so yes I do know a fewthings, more then those who never have done anything other then watch a movie and think they know everything, why not go to a mma gym and learn first hand , then you may see what I am talking about
I'd like to just thank you, Prince, for doing what you do. I would see videos about Bruce Lee, and somehow I just knew that they were not factual. You point them out, then you reveal what really happened. So well done. I appreciate you very much for your honesty. LOVED your Tarantino theory regarding the Bruce-sploitation Game of Death tracksuit vs the Kato mask metaphor. Great stuff.
Anyone who knows what kung fu is and where your power comes from, and has watched Bruce Lee their whole lives, knows that he really was an amazing human. Half man, half something else. I like Bolo too. Thank you for this rational look at what happened on the set. Bruce was not at all fake, and that's that. Just like there is the I'Ching, Lao Tzu, and Chuan Tzu.. there is Bruce Lee. He is someone you can study forever, and always learn. No one had an answer for Bruce. Great job, I am compelled to subscribe
Great comment! Bruce Lee's name absolutely belongs amongst the names you mentioned. Everyone talks about his physical capabilities, which were absolutely astonishing, but they pale in comparison to the capabilities of his mind. Also, I can't recommend strongly enough for people to subscribe to this channel. Prince, Goldenbell Training, is credible, very knowledgeable, informative, prolific, and entertaining. He's made many great videos regarding Bruce Lee.
@@dimpleface2163 That's what I thought. I can't really picture either of them fighting each other, at least not with any intended malice or desire to hurt each other. Maybe a private light sparring session or exchange of techniques, but that's all I can imagine being possible. Also, I don't think Bruce was the kind of guy to judge Bolo as only a bodybuilder. I don't think he was one to say someone was or wasn't a "real" martial artist. I think of Bruce as a guy who was a doer, not a talker in the sense that if he disagreed with someone's assertions, he wouldn't just talk about them to discredit them like say Steven Seagal would. I always got that same sense of character from Bolo as well. I never really took him as someone with a big ego. I've never met either of these men obviously, but there's just some people who display their strength of character in such a way that you can kind of infer what they were and/or are probably like just from what you have seen of them, you know? I don't claim to be right in my assessments, but I do think both Bruce and Bolo can kind of be seen outwardly for their noble aspects.
Great Video! I've been a Bruce Lee fan ever since I can remember. My earliest memories of Bruce Lee was watching Way of the Dragon When I was four years old. Being the only asian kid in my small town in Texas, Bruce Lee was automatically assigned to me by friends. Something I wore with pride lol. All my life I viewed Bruce as this revered mythical being. As an adult I appreciate being able to see him in a more human level. Glad to see I’m not the only one. You earned a sub!
The only crazy story about Bruce Lee I believe was the one where the Asian mafia challenged him because he was teaching martial arts to Americans. I saw it in movie about Bruce lees life and it makes sense because back then people used to care about traditions and could keep secrets and didn’t want outsiders being let in those things.
yea, probably one of the few stories that are real. I mean, he was basicly an impostor cause he studied a few years only and never got close to a teacher rank
I would assume that as professionals, their only real rivalry might realistically be something like to try to get there earlier than each other at the paycheck line!
I haven't watched the video yet but I know Bolo and Bruce Lee never fought each other on set. It was actually a stunt double who challenged Bruce Lee to a fight. There are a few interviews of people who were on set that spoke about the incident.
I watched Enter the Dragon when it was first released and a lot of people were disappointed that Bruce did not fight Bolo. The explanation that was given at the time was that it was a studio decision, they thought that John Saxon should be given a bigger role for Western audiences, if true, shows how much they knew.
They were right obviously because look at how big that movie is. It was Bruce's decision to not fight Bolo, was Bruce wrong? If Bruce wanted to fight Bolo the studio heads could not of stopped it, Bruce choreographed all the fighting scenes & if he wanted that fight, it would of happened.
@@markrene6108 Bruce was a relative unknown at the time and he did not call all the shots, John Saxon was not his pick. He was big in Hong Kong but not so big with Warner Bros who did call the shots and they wanted John Saxon. T give you some perspective I first saw Bruce Lee in Fist of Fury in Australia when it was released I think he was already dead. Bruce was unknown to most people in the West until after he died.
@@jackturpin7828 That's not completely accurate. The whole point of Enter the Dragon was for Hollywood to capitalize on Bruce's international stardom from the other movies (especially from Way of the Dragon with C.Norris ) that were very successful. Yes, he was not a household name, he would later on become more famous after his death, but Hollywood did recognize if they wanted to make a hit, with a cinematic martial arts film in the US, they needed Bruce Lee. They could of went to dozens of other actors, however Bruce Lee would bring them real experience and legitimacy to the movie based on his prior success and reputation he already acquired. Also when does the star of a movie not call shots, are you kidding, no Bruce Lee - no movie gets made, man.
I have been training for over 40 yrs. I am still surprised at the moves and techniques of other martial artists, never close your mind and I always try to gain knowledge from everyone I meet.
Was fighting Lee I was at at chuck's LA studio. Later my teacher Ben G. Perry got into making pictures and fought Norris. He was exceptionally good. Thanks for the memories.
The tall tales of Beardy! He reminds me of 1-2 high school friends that were pathological liars. They’d always make up crazy stories that were either exaggerated, or completely false. Of course some people would fall for it. Who knows, maybe Beardy actually somehow believes these stories.
I find it interesting is that Lee went to Tom Laughlin and Han Bong-Soo ( Billy Jack ) on how to make a Martial Arts movie. I also think it's cool that Bolo and Van Damme became really good friends.
How can anyone hate on Bruce Lee, the man is a legend, and brought kung fu to the masses, popularized martial arts in film. Everyone of my age(50) and younger, also older grew up watching his movies.
I hyave absolutely been in training and sparing where I was taken aback at how my teacher/partner did something. Fortunately I have also been on the delivering end to a few people too that were in total shock that I pulled of a technique on them. In fact that was one of the moments I realized I had trained enough to just begin to act without deliberate fore thought. Got out of my head and just let it flow from all my training.
My 2 Favorite Martial Arts movies came out in the 70’s. Enter the Dragon. And Gordon Lui’s, 36th Chamber of Shaolin. Bolo had good size and strength, But Bruce Lee was to damn Fast!
Bruce had challenges throughout his whole life . How would you like to be him as a child . He overcome what only few of us can . Racism..Discrimination from most even his owner race . Disrespect ..no.kind words can tell you what this legend.means to us . But move forward dont let anything hold you back . Legacy your limitations are as only if you push them 👌
My grandfather is 8 years older than Bruce Lee. Bruce had it pretty good compared to my grandparents growing up in the Jim Crow South. Maybe you were just speaking in general, but it sounds funny talking about racism and discrimination when my ancestors were slaves, and desegregation happened while my mother was in school.
I'm 58 and have been following Bruce Lee since I was 12 years old and I have always read how Bruce and Bolo were very close and bolo was present at his funeral. I also read the book written by his wife back when I was in my teens.
You have the absolute best martial arts content on YT. I really appreciate your narration. And furthermore you do your research and use your brain! Excellent vid!
Actually, next to Bruce, Bolo is by far, the next most memorable. I'm sure both of them appreciated each other just because of shear existence of each other. I believe Bolo has and treasures those moments together and having nothing but truth between them. Hollywood was afraid of Bruce.
That one photo of Bruce having Bolo in an armbar and John Saxon on the ground too, that was most likely Bruce smoothing out the choreography for the Bolo-Saxon fight scene, not Bruce fighting Bolo and Saxon at the same time.
I read a book that his wife wrote, and she said that the triad of Hong Kong wanted Bruce Lee to join them and he wouldn't. So they sent four guys over to break his fingers to show him they mean business, and he beat them up severely. So these guys saying they're able to fight Bruce Lee, I can't believe it.
Bolo Young is one of few last martial artist of old times. The they ware very humble and calm. I doubt that Bolo, even if they would fight, would spread news about it. Besides Bolo was martial artist plus body builder. He actually even needed to make his own fight style just to be still flexible with his mass.
Thank you for some really fascinating accounts of one of my favorite martial arts films. You have done an enormous amount of work here and it shows! I have one comment about this movie, how there is a major plot glitch: while you have just cleared up for me why Bolo didn't fight Lee's character -- something I've always wondered about -- I find myself perplexed about why Han's "personal guard (his daughters, as he says) completely disappeared from any of the final fight scenes. I always thought they should have been at play throwing darts at Lee's character while he fights others. What do you think? Was this a missed opportunity and a failure to develop an interesting plot line, or what? I always end up thinking about crazy ideas like this. Your video really got me going, so thanks again!
Even when you watch his films, Bruce is seen getting hit. He never portrayed himself as untouchable. My mentor, a very good martial artist, used to say, there may be a handful of guys at that level, and today guy B wins, but next week A wins. Generally, if ego isn't an issue, folks like these like to learn and compete in a friendly way to keep their skills sharp.
Loved his son as well and now Shannon, Bruce's daughter has taken over from Linda running the Bruce Lee foundation. I bought a rose wood staff from them and it will hang in my living room for all to see. I also bought 2 fighting sticks. The Foundation helps underprivileged children and supports other charities. I just love that family, amazing legacy 🙏
Bruce Lee and Michael Jordan will forever be talked about and have their greatness questioned which is a testament to how unique of a talent they truly are.
@@Peakfreud Ali career was derailed by the govt. Tyson never beat a great fighter, and Brady isn't even the best QB of his time as Manning was despite not playing with as good teams. Teams win championships not players in football . Sanders maybe
I’m even more curious as to why Bolo vs Chuck Norris never happened given that both of these are still alive and have so much fight filmography between them.
I was fortunate enough to work with Bolo Yeung back around 1992 on a movie called TC2000. So when I saw the title to your video I had to see it through to the end to make sure you weren’t spreading any lies. Makes me sick to learn of this Beardy person you speak of! So let me tell you about Bolo Yeung. Bolo absolutely idolized Bruce Lee! 🙌I never met anyone who held anyone in such high regard before. So I can unequivocally tell you there could have be absolutely no way for there to be any kinda bad blood between them!! Bolo barely spoke a word of English, at least not back when I was working with him. He was very professional, quiet and reserved. I thought most likely because of the language barrier. I was shocked to find out that he’s a tiny little Manlet! 😳 5 ft 5 at best! The way they shoot him they make him look so much taller!😂 Anyways I’m glad you set the record straight. Good video! 👍🏽
Bruce was ahead of his time by decades. He combined the best that was available at the time. Combined Western boxing with traditional martial arts, etc. Open to any style and method, he traveled around meeting and sharing with with other martial artists. He died in 1973, 50 years ago now. If still still alive he'd be 83 today. I hate it how fools say he wouldn't win in an MMA match. First he wasn't into sports fights as he personally stated. Although he did help many others like Chuck Norris and Joe Lewis who dominated the fighting sports at the time. You can say Bruce invented MMA even. He certainly was the inspiration for many MMA fighters as they attest to themselves. The egos attacking Bruce. Seen many of them on YT (not talking of Goldenbell Training here). They just can't accept the will never be a good nor famous as Bruce.
This is what people say about Bruce, but not all of it is true, unfortunately. I get called a hater for pointing it out, but it doesn't make it any less true. There are some things that Bruce couldn't make work. It's in writing from some of his students.
@@GoldenbellTraining What did I say, that wasn't true? He was phenomenal for his time period. Read his writings (some that come from his notes, etc). Like how he figured out how do to feints, how to move without showing a tell. That he figured out how to strike with a direct motion with out body windup, but add body twist at end just before the strike, etc. Not to say he necessarily invented it all. He studied fencing to learn about the fine arts of feints. Got a lot from Joe Louis's books. One was his favorite. In my profession, I'm considered an expert. I don't call my self that, but it's what people tell me. I'm constantly getting after it, I dedicate myself to it. Like Bruce did, I read a lot, see what others are doing, experiment, learn. I know though, there are better people than me out there. That's just the way it goes. Could I be the best in the world? Maybe.
Bolo Yze had long 🎥 acting career fighting Bruce exportation actors like Bruce Le , Dragon Lee in front of the camera. Bolo had NO ego or strife towards the smaller actors who defeated his characters. A consistent professional Threw & threw 👏👏👏!! If he can be like that towards imitators OF COURSE He's like that towards The Original!! I think Bruce was YERY Impressed with Bolo ( there's not of Chinese Men like Bolo in the 70's) I ,👀 closely at each man's demeanor & body language. I 👀 neutral respect between the 2 as colleges & co-stars 🤝.
I see nothing wrong with being a fan boy to this legend, he was 1 in 10 million. Well maybe that's overstating it but you get my point. Thanks for the well thought out video, I subscribed
So glad I found you man, great video! I'm a middle-aged Canadian dude, and only recently have come to realize how freakishly awesome Bruce Lee was, and how incredible and inspiring his life story is. It is a shame there is so much, lets just say, poor quality content, about him. It's great to see a reasonable dude getting the real goods out!
Lie's lie's no one has ever defeated Bruce Lee. I know. This guy is lieing chasing clout looking for likes and followers. You picked the wrong icon that is dead and would be angry at these lie
Yes which is why he was trying to change that. To work together with the 10% of martial artists "that really knew what they were doing." As one karate master quoted him.
@@wutntarnation Oh I disagree. There might be a bunch of BS Kung Fu masters but all the styles are legit. Karate comes from Kung Fu. The problem is a lot of these Kung Fu artists don't spar and then open schools where their students do the same. There aren't even full contact tournaments in a lot of places for Kung Fu. But there's a shit load for Karate and MMA
@@Shinobi33 There are no kungfu tournaments. There are Muay thai tournaments they brand as kungfu. These tournaments have none of the flashy, ridiculous, useless moves and positions that kungfu like that shown in Ipman has.
@@wutntarnation they Shaolin Kung-Fu styled kickboxing tournaments. Sanda. It aint Muay Thai. There are also traditional Kung Fu tournaments. Open run tourneys where Kung Fu practitioners compete. And a bunch of Wu Shu centric competitions and exhibitions
Bruce Lee and Bolo were good friends in real life. They did a commercial ad before ETD. "That" channel is tarnishing Bruce's rep by making this stuff up. It's only a matter of time before everyone figures that out.
@@Futureflow77 a Winston Cigarette ad apparently: “DT: I heard this from Bolo when I interviewed him.But he told me this was not ETDrelated,but a year previous and that was their first meeting and how they got to know one another.Bolo told me that Bruce was not in the commercial,he was, but Bruce somehow had something to do with the promotion of the product.”
When I was a kid I was so disappointed they didn't have a fight in the movie. Especially since on the vhs I had on the cover it showed lee and bolo having a fight
@Sir_Richard_Stewart I just got finished saying the same exact response, and he got upset over it🤣🤣🤣 I exposed him for being a liar, and if he doesn't take this video down soon, I'm going to flag it and copy this video and post it all across social media.
It's crazy how some people will just make up stories or take any source as legit, especially talking about people they don't deserve to be associated with and would never be in the same room. Speaking of which Bruce was too good for this world.
Bolo always said Bruce Lee is good. Not one time did he ever say he could beat him in any known interview. Bolo has a reputation as an excellent martial artist and the average man wouldn't want to get in his way. Infact many martial artists wouldn't want to get in his way. But never has he in any interview claimed to be able to beat Bruce and seems to talk about him with reverence. 🙏 Peace

For those of you who don’t know, Bolo Yeung is still alive and well as of late 2019, just before the Covid pandemic sltarted. He lives in my city and I used to see him walking down the street in my hood. He is not as buff as he was, but still very muscular for someone in his 80’s. A friend of mine who also lives in my area mentioned that he still works out at our local LA Fitness. In fact this friend ran into Bolo a few times at this gym and he even asked my friend to spot him. By all accounts, he is a very reserved and quiet person and not like the character on screen. Maybe someday if I meet him again, I will ask him if he and Lee really fought off screen.
“In my hood” bruh stfu LA is all a ghetto. You ain’t shit
Y’all fight with guns
He's only 77.... outlasted all the other guys and the pretty lady in that iconic movie.
Monterey Park I believe. Large Chinese population there.
Yeah, he's actually a cool guy in real life, nothing like most of his characters.
I watched an interview with Yang Zse aka Bolo, and he said repeatedly that Bruce was the best and that nobody could beat him. Why would he lie??
It's about respect

They were really good friends and for the sake of a good fight in the movie they planned it out- however amerika being "amerikka" had to have a scrawny, non-athletic, plain, 'suburban' John Saxon get all shine ...of course.
@@keyfield8967 well he (john saxon..aka Carmine Orrico) did have a black belt in karate...even though it didn't show
Just because theyre friends doesnt mean they wouldnt spar to enahnce their skills.. .u think because 2 pro basketball players or boxers are freinds they wont test their skills against each other? As long as they know its not personal it should be all good
@@jD-wg3py sparring and fighting are 2 different things...I've sparred with a lot of people
Bruce & Bolo are good friends. Respect to them both.
Were !! 🐸
Unfortunately Bolo is gone to 🙏
@@markrene6108 Bolo is still alive as of this posting.
Amen
@markrene6108 What are you talking about? bolo is still alive. I just watched a recent video with him and Jean Claude catching up to each other.
I've seen a video or two where Bolo to this day still praises Lee very highly and holds him in great esteem.
Bruce understood body mechanics and could read people very well. He was a trained dancer so he could look at a person and have idea if what they were going to do. Unfortunately there is a lot of myth around the man and what he actually did. The movie The Dragon pushed the myth in a lot of ways. No matter what Bruce changed Martial Arts forever.
Mmmmm
Perfectly correct he knew how to lead a fight Like A dancing. Partner and what the response would be. Good thing he wasn't in the military would have been the perfect tactician Appear to be open and vulnerable Having preplanned and limited your response. let you strike and Counter Simultaneously before you recoil Taking you down.
@@mega64219 he was a marine
He beat chuck Norris in real life they were friends and trained for 2 years together, Chuck never liked to speak about their fight, the 90s movie didn't do much to push Bruces legend...at one point in the 80s Chinese shoes/slippers were really popular kids wanted to be like Bruce Lee, after all those years
Yes, you’ve touched on several good points about Bruce such as his understanding of body mechanics, being a trained dancer, and I could add; a great boxer and wrestler ( he demonstrated these two techniques in ETD movie), which brings me to your last valid point about the many myths surrounding Bruce Lee because ETD was one of his movies that started a lot of myths and I think that this is some of the reasons why he was so misunderstood. I recall in an interview that one of his personal desires and plans was to straighten out those myths once he established himself and tell his own true story through future movies had he not died so young. *Thanks for your valid points!
The craziest thing is 50 years after his death Bruce Lee is still loved and still classed as a GOAT. That is his legacy. People loose fights, but his impact on the world in his short life is testament to his character and him as an incredible human being.
bang on 🔥
same way everyone regards Muhammad Ali as the GOAT of boxing despite a few losses it's the impact they had on the sport that stands the test of time..
50 years on and kids still know who they are
It's because he died at the height of his popularity. Just like so many other stars and musicians have done. He never got the chance to grow old, get in trouble, go away for awhile and then try to make a comeback, Etc. He's always remembered at the peak of his dame. That's the way he will always remain, and honestly will probably keep growing as it has been.
who says he is the GOAT.... GOAT of what exactly? Kids like fighting movovies....Or something more substantial? You think he would survive one single minute in mma? or whatever? looool
Nothing came out when Bruce was alive
@@farsalami8605 Bruce Lee was the first master of MMA, ie; Mixed Martial Arts.. Did you even know what MMA stands for LOL
Thank you for telling the truth about Bruce Lee. I’m grateful there are still people dedicated to his memory.
Man...imagine if Bruce never died. The movies he would've done in the 70s and 80s when Arnie and Sly were competing action superstars. I want to live in that universe.
Since he was so attracted to fame, movies, acting, he kinda seemed like a show-off, not some serious martial artist who keeps to himself and who does not seek other peoples amazement of what he does.
Yes, he didnt knew to fight, and reason why he was fast, from what i can conclude, is that he mostly trained like 3-4 basic attacks, that are most effective, until he mastered them, while other people train 10 or more attacks and they are average in them.
Yeah that would have been something
@@Dominik40301 - Damn, you're uninformed. He trained in just about EVERY martial art, including fencing...that's how far out there he studied.
Tom Kelly a 7th degree black belt under Ed Parker founder of Khenpo Karate told me that "after 4 years training under Ed Parker's tutelage 'no one could beat him,NO ONE ' he (Bruce) was just unbeatable. I (Tom Kelly) was quick but he(Bruce Lee) would hit me 3 times while I was trying to hit him once. He was just unbeatable." Tom Kelly lives and teaches in OK if he is still alive. Tom Kelly was a great fighter himself.
Hey Man I didn’t get your name, but thanks to Goldenbell Training for this commentary about the million dollar question: Why Bruce and Bolo didn’t fight in ETD. I remember literal intense excitement and anticipation when watching ETD in the theater for the first time! While I was overwhelmingly excited and satisfied with what was Bruce Lee’s overall best performance (my opinion); my only disappointment was that missing fight and I knew then like I still know these days that I wasn’t the only person on the planet who felt that way. I’m still not really sure about a lot of what’s true or not concerning Bruce because there’s megatons of rumors about His life personally and professionally, but thanks for your commentary because it made a little more sense than what I’ve heard in quite some time. I learned some new info and recalled info that I heard before or forgot. If Bruce hadn’t died so young and early, I’d still be looking for that fight with Bolo in latter movies because I surely believe that He had big expectations and plans due after the phenomenal success of Enter The Dragon, (this title interprets that He really was just getting started)! So in closing, thanks again for such great commentary! 🥋
Bruce Lee against Bolo Yeung would have been a much greater battle than what they gave us.
If Bruce fought Bolo and Han who would Roper fight? The movie wouldn't really be balanced because they did all that story building for Roper only to have him fade into the background.
@@sleeplezznightz Roper shouldnt have even been in the movie. Jim Kelly was done dirty.
@@scitizenkane1 No doubt, Mr. Hand Man! Suddenly I'd like to leave your island!
So it take John to beat Bolo in the movie of Enter the Dragon whoever made this movie is really stupid skinny guy like John is ain't going to defeat Bolo.
I think bolo Bruce actually faught. Because they never had a fight scene together. And after Bruce Lee passed away. Bolo started making movies with wannabe Bruce Lee
Bolo himself said Bruce was the best he was to fast , there will never be another Bruce Lee
You sound like a beerdy fan 😂
@@josephperkins4857 nope I seen a interview with bolo and he does not do many .. his words Bruce was the best …
Beerdy is crazy 🤣 😂
Bolo never said anything like that. Stop hunting for likes pos
@Game Gallows
I’ll take that as a compliment.
The only fight Bruce Lee ever lost was against death.
R.I.P. Bruce Lee the man, the myth, the legend.
No my friend, there is no death, we are forever, it's this vessel that dies, the mind & ego dead. We are the SEEING, the presence Awareness, we are God because God is everything in Creation 👍
@@markrene6108 Death is Real And Jesus Christ Conquered Death By Death On The Cross Repent and believe in the gospel seek the Lord while he still may be found ✝️
And also bruce did talk about losing fights as a youth , and that inspired him to learn martial arts
@@markrene6108We are definitely not forever. Celebrities will be remembered for a bit longer. All those who remember us will die a few decades or less after us.
You can’t lose when you never compete.
God bless Bolo Yeung! RIP Bruce Lee!
Bolo Yeung looks so different now, he looks much slimmer and sort of has that "aging master" look to him, almost what you'd expect Bruce Lee to look like today if he were still alive.
If Bruce Lee were alive today...
...he would be a very sick old Man!
I read in an old 80s magazine that bolo trained in Shotokan karate.
Jim kelly said in a interview originally John Saxons character was supposed to die and Jims character was supposed to be the one fighting side by side with Bruce in the end..but Johns manager used the his acting experience over Jim so the script was changed...sad considering what could've been ...that bruce and jim teamup wouldve been way better
Nah, Roper was the much better more nuanced character. Williams was one dimensional. Jim Kelly is great but the way his character behaved, with all that arrogance, he needed to be taken out early
@THE GADFLY GANG lol majority of the characters in the movie were one dimensional at the end of the day it was a martial arts movie ...name a martial artist from that era of the 70s, 80s and 90s known for their acting lol. John was the better more experienced actor.... not martial artist which was obvious in the movie. As far as Jims character thats how he was written...because of the alterations of his and John's characters ...he could've had a different personality but we'll never know because of John's ego
@@thegadflygang5381 How wasn’t Roper one dimensional? You just don’t like Jim’s character.
Regardless, it's sad Jim Kelly wasn't in more major MA movies. His character was awesome.
Unfortunately killed off, but maybe there could have been a prequal movie leading up to where he had to flee the USA after the bad COPs fight.
No doubt he would have been fighting bad guys leading up to those events.
I see on IMDB he made about a dozen more appearances. Looks like a lot of "blaxploitation" type of films, obviously not reaching the nontertiary of EtD.
@joeneighbor yeah the character Williams was definitely more memorable than Roper the cocky gambler lol..allegedly Jim said Bruce had plans for them doing more movies together but unfortunately Bruce passed away
Great video ! I’ve been teaching kung fu for 36 years. Beerdys videos are definitely made up stories. I grew up and i saw ENTER THE DRAGON at the theatre. The movies are exactly that. Bruce was a legitimate legend in the martial Arts community when he set his mind and body free of all styles/systems. Bruce would have destroyed most people then and now. His speed was the difference.
...technique, timing and power!!!
I was fascinated when I saw Bolo in movies as a kid, as the anti-hero. That man put in serious bodybuilding and fitness work and had a character persona that carried thru his roles in various movies. And, Dude was massive.....
What about that time Bruce Lee fought Batman and Robin ??? :D
Don't forget the Battle of Robot Future Bolo vs The 👻 of Bruce Lee.
Now that's true!
Bruce fought Godzilla too 😂
The Green Hornet lol
@@mizukarate who won? silly question l suppose 🤪
I love the way you explain things about the icon of martial arts, Bruce Lee, and I love the way you respect him. Big like to this video, my friend!
Hey thanks GoldenBell Training for sharing these very cool videos and dispelling a ton of untrue rumours that have transpired over the years *Thumbs Up"
Bruce Lee was (and I say this with the utmost respect for him) a freak. His speed was absolutely unbelievable.
He is fast because he throws his attacks with zero power plus the film used then made motion capture seam faster yes he was quick but I have seen much faster hand speed using science to break it down. He would be much slower if he threw with intent
@@rdeh1678 your living in a dream world. Wow your so jealous of him. That you feel you have to trash his legacy.
@@rdeh1678 zero power? You wish.
@@rdeh1678 oh yeah genius? Let me trust your expert knowledge. How old are you and state your credentials smh. Everyone real fighters even Lewis said he had heavy weight power.
@@lordoffaiyum9727 I am I my 50s now, been doing martial arts since 1976, and still to this day I still train . I have competed around the world so yes I do know a fewthings, more then those who never have done anything other then watch a movie and think they know everything, why not go to a mma gym and learn first hand , then you may see what I am talking about
I'd like to just thank you, Prince, for doing what you do. I would see videos about Bruce Lee, and somehow I just knew that they were not factual. You point them out, then you reveal what really happened. So well done. I appreciate you very much for your honesty. LOVED your Tarantino theory regarding the Bruce-sploitation Game of Death tracksuit vs the Kato mask metaphor. Great stuff.
Anyone who knows what kung fu is and where your power comes from, and has watched Bruce Lee their whole lives, knows that he really was an amazing human. Half man, half something else. I like Bolo too. Thank you for this rational look at what happened on the set. Bruce was not at all fake, and that's that. Just like there is the I'Ching, Lao Tzu, and Chuan Tzu.. there is Bruce Lee. He is someone you can study forever, and always learn. No one had an answer for Bruce. Great job, I am compelled to subscribe
Great comment! Bruce Lee's name absolutely belongs amongst the names you mentioned. Everyone talks about his physical capabilities, which were absolutely astonishing, but they pale in comparison to the capabilities of his mind.
Also, I can't recommend strongly enough for people to subscribe to this channel. Prince, Goldenbell Training, is credible, very knowledgeable, informative, prolific, and entertaining. He's made many great videos regarding Bruce Lee.
Bruce was a unit
I wouldn't know for sure, but I always got the impression that Bruce and Bolo had respect for one another.
THEY DID
@@dimpleface2163 That's what I thought. I can't really picture either of them fighting each other, at least not with any intended malice or desire to hurt each other. Maybe a private light sparring session or exchange of techniques, but that's all I can imagine being possible. Also, I don't think Bruce was the kind of guy to judge Bolo as only a bodybuilder.
I don't think he was one to say someone was or wasn't a "real" martial artist. I think of Bruce as a guy who was a doer, not a talker in the sense that if he disagreed with someone's assertions, he wouldn't just talk about them to discredit them like say Steven Seagal would. I always got that same sense of character from Bolo as well. I never really took him as someone with a big ego.
I've never met either of these men obviously, but there's just some people who display their strength of character in such a way that you can kind of infer what they were and/or are probably like just from what you have seen of them, you know? I don't claim to be right in my assessments, but I do think both Bruce and Bolo can kind of be seen outwardly for their noble aspects.
These two guys are 100% awesome... I love both of them
LOL!! Hilarious stories!! This was better than anything I could find on cable here in Chicago at 1am in the morning!😂😂
Great Video! I've been a Bruce Lee fan ever since I can remember. My earliest memories of Bruce Lee was watching Way of the Dragon When I was four years old. Being the only asian kid in my small town in Texas, Bruce Lee was automatically assigned to me by friends. Something I wore with pride lol. All my life I viewed Bruce as this revered mythical being. As an adult I appreciate being able to see him in a more human level. Glad to see I’m not the only one. You earned a sub!
The only crazy story about Bruce Lee I believe was the one where the Asian mafia challenged him because he was teaching martial arts to Americans. I saw it in movie about Bruce lees life and it makes sense because back then people used to care about traditions and could keep secrets and didn’t want outsiders being let in those things.
There's still no actual proof that ever happened. It's been in several movies and in one he lost. It's a myth that may never be answered.
yea, probably one of the few stories that are real. I mean, he was basicly an impostor cause he studied a few years only and never got close to a teacher rank
I dont know anything about Bruce Lee or martial arts but i like how this guy tells a story.
I would assume that as professionals, their only real rivalry might realistically be something like to try to get there earlier than each other at the paycheck line!
I haven't watched the video yet but I know Bolo and Bruce Lee never fought each other on set. It was actually a stunt double who challenged Bruce Lee to a fight. There are a few interviews of people who were on set that spoke about the incident.
A very quick incident 😁
I watched Enter the Dragon when it was first released and a lot of people were disappointed that Bruce did not fight Bolo. The explanation that was given at the time was that it was a studio decision, they thought that John Saxon should be given a bigger role for Western audiences, if true, shows how much they knew.
They were right obviously because look at how big that movie is. It was Bruce's decision to not fight Bolo, was Bruce wrong? If Bruce wanted to fight Bolo the studio heads could not of stopped it, Bruce choreographed all the fighting scenes & if he wanted that fight, it would of happened.
@@markrene6108 Bruce was a relative unknown at the time and he did not call all the shots, John Saxon was not his pick. He was big in Hong Kong but not so big with Warner Bros who did call the shots and they wanted John Saxon. T give you some perspective I first saw Bruce Lee in Fist of Fury in Australia when it was released I think he was already dead. Bruce was unknown to most people in the West until after he died.
@@markrene6108 P.S. It came as a huge surprise to many of us watching his movies for the first time to hear that.
@@jackturpin7828 That's not completely accurate. The whole point of Enter the Dragon was for Hollywood to capitalize on Bruce's international stardom from the other movies (especially from Way of the Dragon with C.Norris ) that were very successful. Yes, he was not a household name, he would later on become more famous after his death, but Hollywood did recognize if they wanted to make a hit, with a cinematic martial arts film in the US, they needed Bruce Lee. They could of went to dozens of other actors, however Bruce Lee would bring them real experience and legitimacy to the movie based on his prior success and reputation he already acquired. Also when does the star of a movie not call shots, are you kidding, no Bruce Lee - no movie gets made, man.
@@jasonsnow7580 I was there at the time were you even born. I know how famous Bruce became he just wasn't as big as you seem to think at that time.
Bolo was nothing like he is in the movies. He’s a very sweet genuine guy. His favorite style is Taichi too and he doesn’t enjoy actual fighting.
He sure looked dangerous and intimidating in Blood sport lol
All that matters is Bruce Lee was out here living the early episodes of dragon ball like a beast
I have been training for over 40 yrs. I am still surprised at the moves and techniques of other martial artists, never close your mind and I always try to gain knowledge from everyone I meet.
As time passes and in a thousand years there will be stories of how Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris battle nearly destroyed the universe.
Was fighting Lee I was at at chuck's LA studio. Later my teacher Ben G. Perry got into making pictures and fought Norris. He was exceptionally good. Thanks for the memories.
The tall tales of Beardy! He reminds me of 1-2 high school friends that were pathological liars. They’d always make up crazy stories that were either exaggerated, or completely false. Of course some people would fall for it. Who knows, maybe Beardy actually somehow believes these stories.
He would dream one up the previous night then wake up and write in his journal.
I find it interesting is that Lee went to Tom Laughlin and Han Bong-Soo ( Billy Jack ) on how to make a Martial Arts movie. I also think it's cool that Bolo and Van Damme became really good friends.
How can anyone hate on Bruce Lee, the man is a legend, and brought kung fu to the masses, popularized martial arts in film. Everyone of my age(50) and younger, also older grew up watching his movies.
I hyave absolutely been in training and sparing where I was taken aback at how my teacher/partner did something. Fortunately I have also been on the delivering end to a few people too that were in total shock that I pulled of a technique on them. In fact that was one of the moments I realized I had trained enough to just begin to act without deliberate fore thought. Got out of my head and just let it flow from all my training.
Beerdy's propensity to tell tall tales is unrivalled...
My 2 Favorite Martial Arts movies came out in the 70’s. Enter the Dragon. And Gordon Lui’s, 36th Chamber of Shaolin. Bolo had good size and strength, But Bruce Lee was to damn Fast!
Bruce had challenges throughout his whole life . How would you like to be him as a child . He overcome what only few of us can . Racism..Discrimination from most even his owner race . Disrespect ..no.kind words can tell you what this legend.means to us . But move forward dont let anything hold you back . Legacy your limitations are as only if you push them 👌
My grandfather is 8 years older than Bruce Lee. Bruce had it pretty good compared to my grandparents growing up in the Jim Crow South.
Maybe you were just speaking in general, but it sounds funny talking about racism and discrimination when my ancestors were slaves, and desegregation happened while my mother was in school.
@@GoldenbellTraining facts!
I'm 58 and have been following Bruce Lee since I was 12 years old and I have always read how Bruce and Bolo were very close and bolo was present at his funeral. I also read the book written by his wife back when I was in my teens.
So Tired of these internet idiots making stuff up. Great video bro!
You have the absolute best martial arts content on YT. I really appreciate your narration. And furthermore you do your research and use your brain! Excellent vid!
Actually, next to Bruce, Bolo is by far, the next most memorable. I'm sure both of them appreciated each other just because of shear existence of each other. I believe Bolo has and treasures those moments together and having nothing but truth between them. Hollywood was afraid of Bruce.
That one photo of Bruce having Bolo in an armbar and John Saxon on the ground too, that was most likely Bruce smoothing out the choreography for the Bolo-Saxon fight scene, not Bruce fighting Bolo and Saxon at the same time.
A lot of Beerdy’s latest video have been using the new Photoshop AI. He’s creating images and claiming he’s been sent pics
I read a book that his wife wrote, and she said that the triad of Hong Kong wanted Bruce Lee to join them and he wouldn't. So they sent four guys over to break his fingers to show him they mean business, and he beat them up severely. So these guys saying they're able to fight Bruce Lee, I can't believe it.
Bruce is the goat 🐐
Bolo Young is one of few last martial artist of old times. The they ware very humble and calm. I doubt that Bolo, even if they would fight, would spread news about it. Besides Bolo was martial artist plus body builder. He actually even needed to make his own fight style just to be still flexible with his mass.
Awesome video on misinformation in our everyday lives!
I'm ashamed to admit that I believed some of those stories about this "feud".
Thank you for keeping it real, just like today's world, bring the facts and evidence otherwise its alternative reality. thank you for sharing.
Thank you for some really fascinating accounts of one of my favorite martial arts films. You have done an enormous amount of work here and it shows! I have one comment about this movie, how there is a major plot glitch: while you have just cleared up for me why Bolo didn't fight Lee's character -- something I've always wondered about -- I find myself perplexed about why Han's "personal guard (his daughters, as he says) completely disappeared from any of the final fight scenes. I always thought they should have been at play throwing darts at Lee's character while he fights others. What do you think? Was this a missed opportunity and a failure to develop an interesting plot line, or what? I always end up thinking about crazy ideas like this. Your video really got me going, so thanks again!
This was entertaining. Good photo-illustrations.
And after all this Polo in an interview claims that Jean-Claude Van Damme is a better fighter than Bruce Lee ever was, what the
Even when you watch his films, Bruce is seen getting hit. He never portrayed himself as untouchable.
My mentor, a very good martial artist, used to say, there may be a handful of guys at that level, and today guy B wins, but next week A wins. Generally, if ego isn't an issue, folks like these like to learn and compete in a friendly way to keep their skills sharp.
You should just change the name of your channel to BeerdyLies at this point.
is the best mr Lee still # 1 champion in martial arts no matter how many years pass he is a legend and will continue to be in martial arts
Bruce Lee is so powerful that content creators can make bank just by dropping misinformation about him on RUclips.
60yrs later lol
How could you not love Bruce Lee? He's still amazing even though he's gone on.
Bruce isn’t the problem. It’s his delusion fanboys who think real life is an anime.
Loved his son as well and now Shannon, Bruce's daughter has taken over from Linda running the Bruce Lee foundation. I bought a rose wood staff from them and it will hang in my living room for all to see. I also bought 2 fighting sticks. The Foundation helps underprivileged children and supports other charities. I just love that family, amazing legacy 🙏
Thanks for laying it down. Great video
Bruce Lee and Michael Jordan will forever be talked about and have their greatness questioned which is a testament to how unique of a talent they truly are.

Much respect and love for this channel 💪🏾💯
I’m even more curious as to why Bolo vs Chuck Norris never happened given that both of these are still alive and have so much fight filmography between them.
I was fortunate enough to work with Bolo Yeung back around 1992 on a movie called TC2000. So when I saw the title to your video I had to see it through to the end to make sure you weren’t spreading any lies. Makes me sick to learn of this Beardy person you speak of!
So let me tell you about Bolo Yeung. Bolo absolutely idolized Bruce Lee! 🙌I never met anyone who held anyone in such high regard before. So I can unequivocally tell you there could have be absolutely no way for there to be any kinda bad blood between them!! Bolo barely spoke a word of English, at least not back when I was working with him. He was very professional, quiet and reserved. I thought most likely because of the language barrier. I was shocked to find out that he’s a tiny little Manlet! 😳 5 ft 5 at best! The way they shoot him they make him look so much taller!😂 Anyways I’m glad you set the record straight. Good video! 👍🏽
Thanks for setting the record straight
( BOLO ) WAS A YOUNG MAN , BACK THEN , DID NOT HAVE THE EXPERACE AS [ BRUCE LEE ] 🙏🌴🙏.....
Bruce was ahead of his time by decades.
He combined the best that was available at the time. Combined Western boxing with traditional martial arts, etc.
Open to any style and method, he traveled around meeting and sharing with with other martial artists.
He died in 1973, 50 years ago now. If still still alive he'd be 83 today.
I hate it how fools say he wouldn't win in an MMA match.
First he wasn't into sports fights as he personally stated.
Although he did help many others like Chuck Norris and Joe Lewis who dominated the fighting sports at the time.
You can say Bruce invented MMA even. He certainly was the inspiration for many MMA fighters as they attest to themselves.
The egos attacking Bruce. Seen many of them on YT (not talking of Goldenbell Training
here). They just can't accept the will never be a good nor famous as Bruce.
This is what people say about Bruce, but not all of it is true, unfortunately.
I get called a hater for pointing it out, but it doesn't make it any less true.
There are some things that Bruce couldn't make work. It's in writing from some of his students.
@@GoldenbellTraining What did I say, that wasn't true?
He was phenomenal for his time period.
Read his writings (some that come from his notes, etc). Like how he figured out how do to feints, how to move without showing a tell.
That he figured out how to strike with a direct motion with out body windup, but add body twist at end just before the strike, etc.
Not to say he necessarily invented it all. He studied fencing to learn about the fine arts of feints. Got a lot from Joe Louis's books. One was his favorite.
In my profession, I'm considered an expert. I don't call my self that, but it's what people tell me. I'm constantly getting after it, I dedicate myself to it. Like Bruce did, I read a lot, see what others are doing, experiment, learn.
I know though, there are better people than me out there. That's just the way it goes.
Could I be the best in the world? Maybe.
Bolo Yze had long 🎥 acting career fighting Bruce exportation actors like Bruce Le , Dragon Lee in front of the camera. Bolo had NO ego or strife
towards the smaller actors who defeated his characters. A consistent professional Threw & threw 👏👏👏!! If he can be like that towards imitators OF COURSE He's like that towards The Original!! I think Bruce was YERY Impressed with Bolo ( there's not of Chinese Men like Bolo in the 70's) I ,👀 closely at each man's demeanor & body language. I 👀 neutral respect between the 2 as colleges & co-stars 🤝.

You are the number one ☺👍
I see nothing wrong with being a fan boy to this legend, he was 1 in 10 million. Well maybe that's overstating it but you get my point. Thanks for the well thought out video, I subscribed
You are on point, Bruce is a force of wisdom and strength with skills that we all appreciate. 👊🦶🙌
Ginger and royal jelly?.. hum, I know what’s in your tank!
I started cracking up at neck strength vs knockout bit...! lmfao
So glad I found you man, great video! I'm a middle-aged Canadian dude, and only recently have come to realize how freakishly awesome Bruce Lee was, and how incredible and inspiring his life story is. It is a shame there is so much, lets just say, poor quality content, about him. It's great to see a reasonable dude getting the real goods out!
Thanks for watching!
Lie's lie's no one has ever defeated Bruce Lee. I know. This guy is lieing chasing clout looking for likes and followers. You picked the wrong icon that is dead and would be angry at these lie
You can't believe everything that you read, do your real research
Never underestimate ones opponent. No matter how good one is . I know I'm not . But these two are kung fu icons. They cool
In 1959 Bruce Lee said "a person who has trained for one year in boxing and wrestling can defeat most martial artists".
Yes which is why he was trying to change that. To work together with the 10% of martial artists "that really knew what they were doing." As one karate master quoted him.

Lol those Producers would have made a the first Fight Club movie after ETD. No mistake to bring back the old script.
I agree. Im sure they were good friends on and off set
Thank you my brother. Thats why i hit the subscribe button !!! You allways speak the facts
Bruce Lee and Bolo were good friends in real life. They did a commercial ad before ETD. "That" channel is tarnishing Bruce's rep by making this stuff up. It's only a matter of time before everyone figures that out.
A commercial? What kind?
@@Futureflow77 a Winston Cigarette ad apparently:
“DT: I heard this from Bolo when I interviewed him.But he told me this was not ETDrelated,but a year previous and that was their first meeting and how they got to know one another.Bolo told me that Bruce was not in the commercial,he was, but Bruce somehow had something to do with the promotion of the product.”
When I was a kid I was so disappointed they didn't have a fight in the movie. Especially since on the vhs I had on the cover it showed lee and bolo having a fight
Im here because Beardy is full of it
@Sir_Richard_Stewart I just got finished saying the same exact response, and he got upset over it🤣🤣🤣 I exposed him for being a liar, and if he doesn't take this video down soon, I'm going to flag it and copy this video and post it all across social media.
Yeah, when I was a kid I wanted to see Bruce Lee and Bolo fight in Enter The Dragon!
It's crazy how some people will just make up stories or take any source as legit, especially talking about people they don't deserve to be associated with and would never be in the same room. Speaking of which Bruce was too good for this world.
Lol when you said Some Dumb Guy my mind when right to The Last Dragon. That was awesome that you put in that clip😅
Bolo, in my opinion, was always the best final Boss
Bolo always said Bruce Lee is good. Not one time did he ever say he could beat him in any known interview. Bolo has a reputation as an excellent martial artist and the average man wouldn't want to get in his way. Infact many martial artists wouldn't want to get in his way. But never has he in any interview claimed to be able to beat Bruce and seems to talk about him with reverence. 🙏 Peace
