When he became a super star, Bruce Lee didn't actually fight anymore... rather he trained and sparred with people. Here's what I've read and heard in the past.
According Dan Inosanto, Robert Bustillo and a friend of mine who knew Chuck Norris, Bruce and Chuck sparred one evening during the making of "Way of the Dragon." Bruce Lee was so fast that Chuck Norris could not even hit him. Chuck was slapped pretty hard many times, since Bruce didn't want to actually punch him.
Bruce Lee fought a guy on the set of "Enter the Dragon," as told by Bob Wall. Bruce was playing around until the guy got him angry... It was all over after that.
Samo Hung and Bruce Lee sparred during the making of "Game of Death," as told in the biography of Jackie Chan. It was a real kung-fu fight in which Bruce's speed was unmatched.
Bob Wall and Bruce Lee sparred on the set of "Enter the Dragon." Wall recalls just how phenomenal Lee was stating, "he could have been a lightweight champion kickboxer, or boxer."
