Again, the context may not (and probably was not) all out sparring YIP man was very old at this time. It seems likely that Yip Man may have said "OK let's roll and see what you learned" But I have heard many stories about this with slight variations but they all end the same, Lee being humbled. This has nothing to do with the thread, I just posted that point in response to some else's post.
