#BruceLee
I met both these guys in the early 70s and learned a lot about physical fitness that has keep me in great shape today
That’s super cool bro. What did they share with you ?
Joe is a intelligent man. Very well spoken. Great clip. Loved this.
I’m very glad this interview wasn’t lost. Thank you for sharing.
Regardless if he's fought Bruce they took Martial arts to a new Level!!! Thanks for sharing
... for those who claim that he was " just an actor". Another world champion's testimony.
he was just an actor
@@JCMcGee Keep coping in your yooessay fantasies
@@usmc4good I think you'll find that he made movies long before he studied wang chong
I don't know why we have a challenge of wits with unarmed people??😅
@@jimmyp9037 sun tzu's book will tell you...
I just haven't heard anyone speak bad of Mr Bruce Lee. He must have had charisma that was off the charts. For a decorated champion like Joe Lewis to be so humble shows a lot of character.
@@szlvid6 You know nothing.
@@szlvid6lmao Bruce was doing that before he even got to the states lmao he fought a challener from China in a secrete combat deal because he was teaching the white man that was a real fight dang near to the death , so much your comment shows you know very little od the Man Bruce Lee he grew up fighting in the streets of China
Yes, anyone with good credit of their own show great respect to BL indeed
@@szlvid6 Keep coping in your yooessay fantasies
But that FRAUD Chick Norris likes to pretend that he in ANY way could hang with Bruce Lee ...or that he taught Bruce Lee to do "high kicks!" 🙄
I love this interview, joe translates bruce lee's intensity probably like no one else.
I saw Joe Lewis win the World Championship back in 1967 in Long Beach Ca.
Joe Lewis would openly refer to being a student of Bruce Lee & admit he was trained by him.
He was riding his coat tails hoping for a movie career. When that didn't pan out he completely changed his opinions on Lee.
Man this guy has a classy smooth way of explaining everything.
That northern lights 😊
Wow! Really enjoyed this video. I have seen and read a lot about Mr. Lewis, but I had never seem this video before. Thank you so much!
You can tell Joe has tons of respect for Bruce
Only the great ones humble themselves to learn
That was fascinating. Do we have the rest of the interview with Mr Joe Lewis?
Not like chuck😂😂
Thank you for that gem!
Could you share all of it?🙏
He later changed his opinions on Lee completely.
And Joe lewis was 22 time world champion father of kick boxer
12 time not 22
BRUCE LEE IS THE ONE WHO LITERALLY CREATE DMIXED MARTIAL ARTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@niamcd6604Complete nonsense. Mixed martial arts are thousands of years old and modern day MMA as in UFC was kicked off by the Gracies to promote their BJJ style. Lee really only knew 1 style and not even very well. Then tried to glue some random exotic techniques on his basic wing chun knowledge and so it's no wonder Jeet Kune Do is a fail.
Gracie’s knew one method really. Bruce branched out. I’d say his style is a success as that is true modern MMA.
@@siddified They were doing full contact martials in Chicago in the 60s. John Keehan had tournaments which pitted different martial art styles against each other. So, even in the United States full contact martial arts were being practiced before UFC. There was more than one style that combined grappling with stand up fighting. Gen Lee Ju Jitsu, in the early 60s in New Jersey, combined Karate, Ju Jitsu, Boxing, and Savate.
Yes, you are correct about Mixed Martial arts being practiced thousands of years ago because Chinese monks practiced numerous styles to be well rounded fighters. Some people say that Bruce Lee took from their concept with his art.
Another outstanding video my bother Beerdy... Thank you... Happy Easter :)
Thanks you my man:) Happy easter to you and your family :)
every commentary, every archived footage of the men who knew Bruce Lee, sparred with Bruce Lee, had nothing but the highest respect and love for the man. When you can get champions to humble themselves about some stories about him, makes me appreciate the amazing things he accomplished in that small window of time that he was with us
I started training at 12 never stopped.
I have known and even trained with guys like Joe.
A lot of ego in the arts in the mid 20th century.
Joe Lewis was respected as being totally “about it”, with no need or inclination towards ego.
God bless you & Semper Fi, Mr. Lewis.
- Matt’s dad Dan
Joe is very honest, the other guy made famous by Bruce is very dishonest.
Are you talking about Chuck Norris? He speaks highly of Bruce.
Joe Lewis, well spoken, adding credibility to Bruce's legacy. I would have liked to hear the entire interview.
Wow... Good stuff, but what about the brutal fight they had?
Clickbait title. So sad people have to resort to these tactics when the content of the video alone is already a strong selling point to click. Cheapens the experience when youtubers do this and I find myself not willing to subscribe afterwards.
@@Sharingan6138 100 %
But what lie about ‘brutal fight’ in the title…. Click bait diminishes the content of vid…..
I take from the sparring match. after the slip and 3punch counter, Joe knew "oh crap, I'm beat", ...RIGHT THERE!!!!
Edited2Add: I respect his total honesty!!!! 👍 Beerdy, this was a GOOD ONE. THX
Imagine a wasp is buzzing around you. You can exercise caution, with respect of the wasps ability to sting you.
Now imagine on the next day, you ask yourself, what is that stinging pain I feel on my neck. As you look around, you see a huge horsefly flying off. You're only aware of this painful interaction, after it is over. You're a victim.
Now imagine that there are 50 huge horseflies hovering towards you. You strangely and suddenly find yourself wishing there was just a Wasp.
The wasp can sting.. true.
But the horsefly is out for blood.
Be a horsefly my friend.
Be a machine gun. Wait. Be a nuclear bomb.
I am eating this up, thank you🙏
An instructor I knew when I was young told me Football player turned actor Rosey Greir was a friend and brief student of Bruce Lee, and used to tell a story of Bruce beating another NFL players azz after being aggressively challenged. I never seen this story anywhere else but I do know Rosey Greir is still alive in his 90s now, wish I could ask him.
Same here, mine is GM Hwang In Shik and lives in Toranto. He worked with Bruce as well and told stories about him.
When myths and fisherman's tales are all you got you know it's all bull.
@@siddified that's true, but some legends are only known because of fishermen tales. Besides, i like believing Bruce beat a fb players azz, kinda funny to imagine😂
Wow, this is a gold mine of 1st person "I was there". Where is more??? Outstanding!
All the old Chinese styles are not about fighting. They are about killing. They were not playing a sport for points.
Absolutely correct! Anyone who disagrees is truly showing their ignorance!
Lol bullshit
Bruce Lee opened a door that for any martial artist to be relevant they have to go through it.
THANKS BEERDY THANKS A LOT MAN~ I am 70s black belt from NYC and still teach and train to this day! Yes, I use to see Joe Lewis all the time at tournaments back then., He was arrogant. Great fighter, thought he was the shit. So thanks for this man.
You can tell how much Mr. Joe Lewis love fighting just by his demonstrations.
I met Joe Lewis in tge early 90s I think , he was a guest at s kickboxing function I was working at . Decent guy , had immense respect fir Bruce Lee , chatted for bout 90 mins .
I got to train under one of Lees instructors back in the 70s. That training is still part of my life.
Fantastic rediscovered insight!
wow , thank you for sharing !
Bruce lee is correct " get them before they get you by using faster speed !" Etc etc
If he is still alive and well, much of its narrative might not be the same due to aging. Bruce died at a young prime age. That's at his best form, making the memories of him in moments frozen in a time capsule of his best. Making it legendary then after.
joe lewis is fast and skillful, but bruce lee is on another level
Well done Beerdy ! 👍
I was impressed by the recommendation from Mike Stone. I didn't know he had worked with Bruce Lee. Great Video. 🙂
MISS THESE GUYS, THEY BUILT MARTIAL ARTS IN AMERICA. THE GOLDEN AGE.
Met joe lewis at a seminar at danny lanes dojo in the chuck norris fighting arts. Great guy...watched him and danny lane spar. Got his autograph
Great video
Excellent. Thank you.
i fought with one of his students and close friend of Lee. Like the apple does not fall far the tree. i learned from my experience. i used it on the street and it never failed me. For those who think Bruce Lee was just a actor ….you think to much
So where is that brutal fight you were talking about?
FUCKING CLICK BAIT
You think people were walking around with mobile phones and selfie sticks back then?
@@kalikaputra No, but if you put something in the title of your post it should be seen. If it said BL on the moon, then one should see him on the moon. Click bait.
The titles on this page are constantly misleading
Clickbait
Thanks for the informative ive done taekwondo when i was a teenager for a while now ive heard this about bruce Lee's own JKD style im.goung get into this finally now to get fit again and learn vto fight to defend myself!! Thank you 😊 💓
Hey Folks. With ALL the trash/garbage on Social Media today, this was one of the best videos I’ve ever seen. Very informative and very nicely done 😊
I would love to see the rest of the interview if available
Excellent clip, even though
the title; is obvious clickbait.
''Joe Lewis Talks About His BRUTAL Fight Against Bruce Lee In 1972''
Blood and Guts . i had this on VHS and put it on DVD too . great stuff
Great video 👍Joe
Bruce Lee Changed the WORLD! I actually had the pleasure of meeting, "Joe Lewis." It was at a, "Full Contact Karate Fight" he was very nice. It was back in the late 70's early 80's.
I knew he had worked out with Bruce Lee. It was so KOOL to meet a person who knew and learned from my, "HERO BRUCE LEE, THE LITTLE DRAGON !" RIP 🙏👏👍
ENOUGH SAID !!! ✌️
Blahahahaaaa
Bruce never had a real fight in his life. He's like Steven Segal!
Enough said!
Blahahaaaa
Wow. That old and still that delusional.
Learn something new every day. Mr. Lewis really seems to understand the JKD, which I had a bit of back in the day. So that's 2 guys you don't wanna fight, Joe Lewis or Chuck Norris.
I took seminars with Joe Louis! Dude had hands like cinder blocks
That's pretty good beerdy, Find the footage of that flight!!!!!
Amazing legend By Joe
Great video, but please stop with the click bait. It's not necessary.
Bruce was a street fighter..... his brother said that he would usually fight the Choy Li Fut players on a rooftop or just on the street.
His parents sent him to California to save him from hurting or killing or being arrested.
Great to see. Feels ike it got cut off just as he was about to talk about their training. Where can we see the rest?
after watching - no idea what Bruce Lee's philosophy was. Okinawan styles are fast, hard striking styles. all good and great athletes have heart, stamina, focus, will power. Bruce Lee was an anomaly, like Michael Jordan. their physics-defying abilities may be the result of mind over matter. will power. intention. are those attributes developed, or innate... don't know. but his speed, like Michael Jordan's hang-time, was something to behold.
Love all these video beers do have full segment with Joe ?? Thank you long time subscriber. Any videos on Brandon 30yrs since his passing many viewers would watch thank you
When will you post rest of it?
Great segment, but would love to see the whole interview.
If Joe Lewis was the student and he studied under Bruce Lee and not the other way around then Bruce Lee was the better fighter it's not rocket science
So you're saying that Cus D'Amato was a better fighter than Mike Tyson?
@@JimboSlicePFCyes, haven’t you seen the vid of cus womping on Ali!?
@@Bellabaddi lol of course.
Jim Kelly was saying in an interview, and he said he knows a lot of martial artists sparred with Bruce Lee and lost. Jim Kelly didn't and won't mention any names out due to respect. I think Joe Lewis and Chuck Norris are 2 of many who sparred with Bruce Lee. Jim Kelly even said Bruce was untouchable due to his speed and smarts.
We're was the Brutal Fight ,don't advertise when it's not going to be there wtf😊
Mrs Smith just " swallowed a hornet!" And laughed 😅 " about it !" 🤣
Wow 😮
Those 3 principles are still true today, and we see them being applied by UFC fighters in their fights.
Where is this without the edit??? It cut early???!!!
It was getting interesting. Any more tape of Joe Lewis talking about sparring with Bruce Lee?
Yes, later he said Lee was not all that and not a real fighter. This video is cherrypicking old stuff from when Lewis was still trying to ride Lee's movie coat tails, looking for a movie career.
Nice video but the title (Brutal fight against Bruce Lee) is bullshit. Or is that part two. Maybe not.
It's 100% bullshit.
There is no evidence that Bruce EVER had real full contact fight against proper, serious fighter. True is that Bruce has no ability to do it. He was small, not very strong and easy to knock out by real fighters. That's why despite the fact that he could enter any competition to prove his skill never had a fight. He was also seriously addicted to drugs, always high on cocaine and LSD. There is much more bullshit and false legend around him that real fighter.
Does the tape just stop there or does it go on¿
Presumably the video did not end there, where is the rest of it?
Where is the rest of this interview?
Why the cut right there?
Thanks for the effort
I'm still restoring it :)
@@BeerdyBruceLeeCentral alright. looking forward to it. will leave a sub. Thanks
@@heindattel3919 Thanks brother:)
@@BeerdyBruceLeeCentral CLICK-BAIT! What a phuckin' waste of time. smfh
I was painting a apartment complex once and one of the tenants windows was open. Now I know what was going on but I did not at the time. Apperantely there was a scizo living in one of the apartment and he had not been taking his meds. The police showed up later in the day to collect him. However when we where painting outside his window we heard about an hour long monolog from the man inside. He had an entire fantasy about how he used to train with bruce lee and him and bruce lee formed a plan to rob the hells angels. However eventually during the monolog he betrayed bruce and started banging his wife. DUring t he retelling of the wife portion of the story he began master baiting furiously to the point where we could hear it very loudly. When bruce lee found out this guy was doing his wife he was furious... but this guy kicked his ass or so thats what he said. It was pretty amazing to peer into the mind of a person who was completely mad and off his meds. We where laughing our asses off as quetly as we could outside his window. Listening to him go on, but it was also a little scary to know someone could be that unhinged.
Beerdy you're the best!
Thanks brother:)
1:18 Wasn’t this documented on the original Panther Video series ? 5:30
Hmmmmm this puts to bed the lie that some push that Bruce Lee wasn't a fighter and just would have gotten beaten by anybody
"Bruce was a killer"- Mike tyson
Now this Jeet Keen Do might be rly interesting
Nice interview, and yet nothing about some "BRUTAL fight" against Bruce Lee. Disappointing when people resort to clickbait nonsense for a video that has actual merit without using that.
Here is a pro fighter who knew Bruce Lee and even addressed him as Mr. Lee. Why the disrespect by Michael Jai White saying he could beat him? When here you have a professional fighter who knew Bruce Lee. Mr. Joe Lewis would and could beat down Michael Jai White yet he's very respectful of Bruce Lee. True winners don't need to hype themselves up like Michael Jai White!!!
Michael Jai White could beat prime Joe Lewis's *ss all over the place.
You fanboys are so desperate to grab any straw that might even remotely confirm your delusions about Lee.
Lewis later changed his opinions on Lee abilities completely btw. This is cherrypicking old statements.
I thought Joe Lewis was alot older and alot blacker...🥊(laugh!)
Okay, despite the interesting content - the fact remains, I've ( and probably you've ) been clickbaited.....
...must remember that next time.
Joe Lewis is certifiably insane, tried to ride Lee's coattails, had a fallout with him and recanted every positive thing he ever said about Lee once he realised Lee used him and tried to steal credit.
He was his student don't fool yourself he and chu ck weren't in his league Bruce is the GOAT
We will never know will we.
Damn Beerdy, you should work for the CIA! You uncover everything 😂
How many professional fights did he (Lee) have? did he fight a pro boxer with brass knuckles like gene leblel in which he was not able to kick or punch him back yet win? this is on film and he can be seen from beginning to end. Did he go in a ring with a real bear and win leaving with claw marks on his back. fastest kick, punch how about block? I never heard of Lee saying I can block anyone. Why because the day he loses his reputation about being the fastest goes away even if the person throwing the punch has a slower punch than the blocker. he was great made significant contributions. let him rest in peace and stop trying to get views for money from his achievements. I am not into people beating each other up at the end like colt said, he made everyone equal
I’m not sure, but I think I missed the part where the brutal fight took place.
Wouldn't be surprised if Bruce was inspired by Heinz Guderian.
Sounded like they were exchanging techniques and ideas not fight at all.
Maybe it was something like this,
He thaught some stuff,
Joe though it was JKD
But it was more about how he should behave in the ring.
And level up his decay..
Bruce knew he would accept the offer because he didn't have any choice already missed, messed up a movie opportunity.
Many of JL students up till today believe they understand JKD.
Because they believe in illusions.
Former heavyweight champion.
More complementary than another former middleweight champion.
Mike Stone…Priscilla Presley’s boyfriend, who she left Elvis for.
In my dreams i never, lost a fight to Bruce but, we tied. Later, on in real life i never lost any fight.
So you didn't fight anyone huh
And then the video just randomly ends....🤷
I fought Bruce Lee too!!!
Is that chal sonnens dad haha
This dude high as fuq
What brutal fight?
IN YOUR DREAMS
I communicate with someone who attacks me after he is neutralized. Well, if he is still conscious or able to talk. Is this man a women?
