I mean the dude basically developed protein shakes and Jeet-kun do which is considered the precursor to modern MMA and jkd students have historically done well in professional fighting. He won a boxing tournament in Hong Kong before his US emigration. Obviously we don’t know how he’d fare in further professional fighting, but I think it is a reach to say he didn’t do it because he wouldn’t do well. He simply wanted to be an actor not a professional fighter.

Yeah, he’s overhyped but he was still a cool dude.
