I'm not sure exactly how this Bruce Lee business started, but let me tell you: Lee would never get cornered by a huge 300 lb pound man in the first place. And if you think his 150 lb was a liability, thats hilarious. He was nothing extraneous, nothing unnecessary, had the perfect weight for balance and speed. And have you ever heard the boxer's term "speed=power"? Look at Roy Jones Jr. He basically toys with his opponents, and could knock them out at any time with his blinding hand speed. Well, Bruce was even faster, and was actually trained to *kill* instead of just knock down the opponent. I wouldn't go so far that Lee was invicible (a bullet will kill anyone dead), but in hand-to-hand combat, he had no equal.
