  • Top 5 asian fighters

    I was talking to a friend who is a fantic of kung fu n he told me that Bruce Lee was one of the great fighters, but there were 5 asian fighters who were even better than Lee. So I wanted to know if you have heard about the top 5 asian fighters or know anyone who was better than Lee?

        I don't see the point in comparing him directly to Bruce Lee but you can't talk about great kung fu practitioners without mentioning Wong Fei Hong

                  i think if all of these were in their prime the list goes something like
                  1.)Ricky Gamboa-SMantis
                  2.)Robert Chu-Wing Chun
                  3.)Norman Chin-SMantis
                  4.)Douglas Wong- White Lotus
                  5.)Gary Lam- Wing Chun
                  These i think these have the most skill.

                        Martial artists ?

                        In TKD, I'd say He Il Cho and Jhoon Rhee are the most skilled.
                        In HWD, Lee Joo Bang.
                        In KSW, Suh In Hyuk.
                        in TKMS, Yi Won Ik.
