bruce vs. john

sercuerdas · 08-14-2003, 12:34 AM

who was more skilled, bruce lee or john lacoste?

i'm bringing this up because it seems some people feel bruce is the end all be all of ma. i do respect his ability and accomplishments, but given all the escimadors in so.cal during that time, i feel it would be hard to say bruce was the best martial artist even in california. keep in mind many of the escrimadors had fought to the death.

p.s. let the ripping begin.

Really don't know. Nobody knows. All we have to go on is what people have written or spoken about. the ratio seems to be about 80% for and 20% against Bruce being the most amazing fighter ever seen. And it's true, the Escrimadors did prove themselves in war against the Spanish and Americans.
