This is not a "who would win thread".

I think that the core philosophy of JKD is pretty similar to MMA, and what most MMA fighters, shootfighters, Vale Tudo fighters, NHB etc. etc. are training in the spirit of JKD, especially is they add a little bit of selfdefence training in their game.

I read an article that said that Bruce was turning away from Chi sau and trapping, is this total BS or is there something to it?

When I practiced PFS JKD, back when they where still affiliated, the training was pretty similar to MMA or shootfighting, with the only exception that there were a little more dirty tricks, and FMA training, and the strong side was forward, of course.

What do you guys think?

I MMA/Shootfighting/NHB what Bruce was moving towards? I read some guy saying that he was becoming a Neo Muay Thai Fighter.
