    Hey people, who do you think would win in a fight, Bruce Lee or Mas Oyama?

    My money would probably be on Oyama, because he'd only need one punch to win the fight, but Bruce would have the edge in speed, and this could change the outcome...

    I don't think either of them are in great fighting shape these days. It's your call ;)

    This would be a match like ali and marciano. Two greats of their sport Bruce lee with his speed and mas oyama with his power. Question would speed overcome power? Or would power win over speed. This is actually i think a great question because wasn't martial arts thought up to help the less equiped and less powerfull person defend himself against a stronger advisary. A big cat against a bear who would win. My money would be on Mr Lee unless Mr oyama got to fight him in close and trapped him early. :)

    IMO, unless you watch videos of them in action, and break down their skills and styles[1], all this is, is idle fantasizing. Just like the "what wins, tkd kicks or boxing punches??" type of questions.

    [1]And even then there would be no sure way of determining who would win, merely possible outcomes, ignoring the chance of accidents, etc.

    I'm going to hope that you're about 13 years old, otherwise this is a sad pathetic joke, right?

    Besides, I could beat both of them. All I'd need is a shovel...

    It is the past, it does not matter who would win, what matters is your training, if they influence you, it is all good.

    This is a silly question ..

    Anyway, the match would be brutal and Oyama would break B.Lee in half.. next question :)

    Whatever age the op is, the question did bring out some serious responses. And on a more serious note both men were kings of the martial arts. In my opinion. And i think to talk and ponder on their lives and abilities is a high compliment. Which is not being disrespectfull to their memories at all. In my humble opinion.

    Serious answer, my money would be on Oyama. Bruce was fast and powerful but so was Oyama and he could take a beating too. Bruce's training to my knowledge never involved beating the crap out of another person while they did the same to him, so I'd say Oyama would have the edge.

    for entertainment's sake my money's would be on Oyama. Bruce Lee was a talented artist/ icon but i can barely find any documentation of Bruce doing challenge matches.

    Mas Oyama travelled around the world fighting people from different styles and backgrounds. one exploit i like is the ruckus Oyama and his fello karateka caused in Thailand in Muay Thai bouts lol.


    my Dad was a student of Oyama and based on his experiences.....yeah id definetly go with him.

    If this ever actually happened the world would implode.

    No one would win, and everyone would lose. Lets hope they don't come back from the dead for some kind of zombie undeath match

    Only from you :D

    This kind of top trumps post is generally a waste of time because it assumes people or arts can be broken down to "Kick 76 vs Punch 94" and trust me, the real world just isn't like that.
