Karate grandmaster Joe Lewis is a former World Karate and Kickboxing champion from the United States. He's sure his Karate in more powerful than Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do and tries to teach Bruce Lee a little lession. But it backfired as Bruce demonstrates in this video.
Here is the full story: seworld.info/will/frLa29PObKWDlXE/video&ab_channel=Beerdy-BruceLeeCentral
Joe and Bruce became great friends after this, Bruce offered Joe the role of Colt in Way Of The Dragon, but Joe refused to lose to Bruce in the movie, he wanted the fight at the end of the movie to be a draw, Bruce said no and they ended up arguing over that fact and the friendship was over. Bruce offered the role of Colt to Chuck instead, and the rest is history.
so his ego killed his right to became a legend
@Guy Markus yeah, and brad Pitt beat Bruce.....Yee haw!
@Tim Forde yea no, you absolutely can let go of ego sometimes in many situations and not just say "well that's life" to defend your wrong choice lol
@David Hyde Crash-test dummies don't find back.
@laurence holden Yep
Not sure yr all aware ...but my mum could knock u off yr feet on to a chair if u put small power directly into yr sternum... it's easy...not knocking Bruce who is a legend
Bruce lee is a legend. To all the doubters, eat it.
Planting your feet makes the difference
I do not know anyone who was not mesmerized by anything this man did. He was incredible to listen to, to watch. He was so photogenic. His whole persona was artistic- he did so much in such a short time. Nature takes people like this away from us almost to keep balance. Just too much kinetic energy. So incredible!!
Bruce Lee the Jimi Hendrix of of martial arts.
Man for a second you can see the dudes soul try and leave the body . That punch went through him 👌
To the best of my knowledge this isn't Joe
4:41 The Flash Light Is Too Slow Lol!
Boards don't hit back.....performance art.....very pretty and feminine!
And thats how its done....... by the one and only!
Bs overrated Bruce lee
So u r saying hong kong was an overhyped usa colony ???
The chair had wheels 😂
It is genetic. People born with natural ability. We can not acquire this type of ability. Only to understand them.
That's an odd stance to keep, if you're looking to absorb the power of a blow to the body: feet lined up parallel, straight knees is the perfect way to get knocked down on your ass. I've seen this footage many times and I must say it hardly demonstrates anything. Try and do the same thing to someone in a proper stance, see if he you can make him fly like that.
Just think, while all this was going on Bjj practioners were beating the shit out of both Karate and Kung Fu guys
Doesnt take much to knock someone back if they are standing square
And in an instant humility was received and a seat had to be taken. That 6 inch punch was a metaphor for the rest of Joe's life.
Hairy women in panties
Feilong Vs Ken
If I had a wish to bring anyone back from the afterlife it would be Bruce Lee and Bruce Lee only. I wish if I had Bruce Lee as my big brother. I admire him so much. So sad that all the good people have to leave this world early and all the Misfits are still around today.
He will be never forgotten. 👍
World of Warcraft should make a Bruce Lee character. Then we wouldn't have to have 40 man raids.
Tamsak done na host
This is bullshit. Nothing "backfires" in this video. This was a stunt. Tell whatever tale you want, you're full of shit.
Anyone notice Bruce's clever little trick with the chair? The first guy would have had same impact and slid just as far back if he fell on a chair too.....even notice bruce adjust the chair to let the guy know to relax and sit into the fall. Really makes me doubt a lot about his legend pulling off cheap tricks like this😂 Gob bless you all
I wish I knew what Bruce was saying to the guys in this video
This is real strength. Joe did not move his feet or anything. Bruce moved him with pure strength. Amazing!👊🤛
Bruce Lee moved like water. Flowed. Rest in peace the greatest of all time!🙏
Bullshit Bill Wallace. Joe Lewis,Benny the Jet were true martial artists Loved his movies, but Lee had no real fighting experience
not joe lewis
I could care less about famous people, but if there is one person I'd have loved to met it's Bruce, tremendeous respect for both his talent, skill, dedication and person!
Isnt that Mike Stone Bruce punched?
The young Karate guy is unknown. The other tall guy is actually a friend of Bruce by the name of Bob Baker. Baker played the part of the Russian, Petrov in the movie Fist of Fury.
Bruce lee maybe a grand master but his master is on a way different level master ip man
You must not know of "King of the talking hands".. Wong Shun Leung who was Ip Man greatest student, Ip Man said he(Wong) was better then him!!! Wong was Bruce's hands on teacher more then Ip Man, who only worked with Bruce in private lessons..
Such BS.. Smoke and mirrors..
Cheap trick. If you look closely, the man standing changes his standing position between the two men. With the first guy, he has a little wider stance making it easier to brace himself. With lee, he's standing straight up feet close together. My cat could knock a guy down in that stance.
Grew Up With Watching Bruce .. My Mom Didn't Want Me to Study Taekwondo Cuz Of My Temper lol ... It's all Good... So I Rocked a Pearl Drum Set in A Great Band .. Still Have My Posters... Love Lee ....
Jabroni punched, Bruce pushed punch.
Marshal Law and Paul in TEKKEN 😁😁😁
Which one is Bruce Lee?
Bruce lees is really more of a punch then push. Joe Lewis was just punching.
Reread your comment!
Bruce Lee was a great showman, Joe Lewis was not. Notice how much time Bruce takes to set everything up, the chair right behind the guy, how close he is standing to him, Bruce hits him with spectacular effect. Conversely Joe is stood too far away has to raise his weight off his back foot to hit him and the chair is to the side.
I was thinking the Brown Bomber Joe Louis. But, of course, different spelling with this guy that I failed to see initially. At first, I was like, why would he be teaching Bruce Lee karate? Lol.
Bruce Lee, "The Man, The Myth, The Legend!" Nothing else to be said. I can do without the music background. It just becomes NOISE!
Trickery works well! The use of body force instead of the force of the punch dropped him on his rear..
Bruce does more of a push than a punch
All that knowledge he had. Imagine everything that he could have showed us more. What a legend.
BRUCE LEE IS AMAZING TO WATCH AND INSPIRING WHEN YOU HEAR WHAT HE BELIEVES. TRUE MASTER WARRIOR HE WAS AND STILL IS THE BEST EVER!
Quentin terentino show that Bruce lee was shit
Where is joe lewis?? Those are two white men!! This is bullshit!!!
Tarantino thinks otherwise
Continues to inspire to this day. Legend status.
He was humbled. I respect that kind of character.
This footage again?..weird a star like Bruce doesn't have numerous film..or real fight footage
in real life (i.e. boxing, MMA, muythai, kick boxing - the best contact sports EVER) there is no such thing as 1 inch punch... just doesn't work and never seen it happening in contact sports. The 1 inch punch i just witnessed is more like a 20 inch push, no damage and with no real application whatsoever because nobody gonna let u put your fist that close to their faces/bodies. This is just an exhibition for entertaining.
That punch entered his soul 🤫
One inch punk more like one inch push
@1:00... Was or wasn't really impressed... ⁉️🤔
The one & only.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.......Bruce Lee
Bruce lee would fail bad in a real fight.
lol, Bruce Lee's style was literally developed by real fighting.
Lol firstly the guys who took the punches stood with their feet side by side which is the complete opposite way a fighter is taught to hold their stance . Secondly the karate guy who threw the punch threw a shit punch in mean there was no speed behind it ,it's as if he was a fucking novice . I have no doubt there was power in Bruce's punch as it speed behind it but for fucks sake at least test it on someone with a fighting stance.
I wish Bruce Lee was still alive today. 👊
IDK. Joe's punch looks lame. Not straight without shoulder follow through. Bruce's punch has his shoulder behind it. There are no two greater martial artists than Ali & Lee.
Yeah it was a shit punch, I've taught my 7 year old daughter how to throw punches on the pads for boxing and she has a better technique than this
Bruce lee never fought ANYONE,they had tournaments back then,Chuck Norris was a champ but only in points on a mat ,the prison who should have gotten the credit and true proven champion back then was from Pacoima California his name is Benny the jet urquidez ,he was on 30 karate magazines ,beat hero Japanese champions look him up on u tube ,you probably think van damm and Jackie Chan are true fighters NO ! You must get hit in the jaw and face and still keep fighting,just cause you have a 2 inch hit on a TRUE CHAMP LIKE JOE LEWIS ,yet all bow to Bruce,prove it to me ,BENNY DESERVERS THE CREDIT LOOK HIM UP
Yep bruce lee was a film actor
Props to Bruce for promoting Martial Arts World Wide, but Bruce was no master neither was joe. Joe’s karate reverse punch was terrible and Bruce’s 6 inch punch was a push punch and you can tell that joe was already leaning back away from the punch. I respect real martial artist who give years upon years ( decades) of serious training. Not some 18 year old kid who studied some Wing Chun for 2 years comes to the states and now is a master. I know many people will not agree with me on this matter and that is fine but I am entitled to my opinion. I enjoyed his films but that is it ...
Bruce Lee is awesome! But I'm tired of the "1 inch punch" shit. If you stand flat footed and square, a 9 year old girl could knock you over.
You think the Triads were involved in his son and Mr. Bruce Lees deaths, or jjust unfortunate events? Either way we all loss!
I've never heard a background story to the infamous 1 inch punch but hearing it like this and watching in detail was awesome. Ita insane how much force he generated to knock these guys back! The first dude walked away and held his chest. Joe Lewis gave Bruce eye contact before he walked away. Those men just experienced something that changed them and us forever. Long live Bruce Lee
bruce lee died. while back in fact
Lmfao! So stupid... anyone can do this...have someone stand in a square square in front of a chair, hit them in the sternum and put a chair behind them to stumble into and you’ll get the same result....as for joe Lewis, if you truly watch without bias, you’ll see first the major difference is the guys holding a pad which absorbs the power, but in spite of this, the guy is moved just as easily, and had he stumbled straight he would have hit the chair as well, but he veered off and that’s why he stayed on his feat...Joe’s punch was so much more powerful that he moved him easily even though the pad took all the impact
I Subed Big Bruce Lee Fan Since 67 🤓 Thanks for Sharing.
It's actually a very easy punch to do do.
To bad Bruce didnt get to see the full impact of how much he actually influenced, not just the biggest countries, but on a global scale, and all mankind everywhere..he was a true celebrity of the world!
Oh but he did my friend 😀
Joe had a pretty smug lookwhen he walked off. Then bruce wiped it off.
Bruce lee....o maior de todos!!!
I don't believe that is Joe Lewis in the white and red gi. He didn't wear that gi. I was at that demonstration in Long Beach and Lewis had more blonde type hair. Definitely Not Lewis!
Not a punch per say. Its easy to push someone off balance in the way Lewis was standing. Notice the follow through
Joe Lewis: ''I never watched TV in the '60s, so before I met Bruce Lee, I'd not heard of him. I first met him at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington D.C. at the `67 U.S. National championships. I was defending my title, and he and Robert Culp from the `I Spy' show were there as guests. Bruce Lee approached me and introduced himself. That's how everything began. A few months later I was at Black Belt magazine's Culver City office to see them to complain about a misquote, and Bruce Lee was in their offices. when I went to my car he came running up behind me saying, Joe! Joe! Hi, I want to talk to you. And he spent about 15 minutes primarily pitching me on his system and trying to elicit my interest and I basically ignored him. I to this day, don't remember what he did or said to me.'' Lewis is the champion and is defending his title. Do you seriously believe he is going to take time out of his title defence to sit on the floor like a child and help a dude he only just met to do a demonstration that he knows nothing about? And wear a uniform that is not his karate style and wear a red belt instead of his black? and do this in front of his peers. Joe had a huge ego, he would never do such a thing.
@Duc Nguyen Dude, what are you going on about.?
A man with a huge ego can only be beaten by 1 thing and one thing only, genuine superiority.
Bruce would beat fhe hell out of Lewis
Golden rule in hitting. Hard fist at soft places and soft hands to hard places.
Great video BUT !!! The commentary is wrong about soooo much it hard to even listen to him .
The strongest in my heart ❤️❤️❤️🔥
That punch was all about the right leg. Bruce Lee punched like a boxer
I called it a one inch push, not a punch
Bruce said ,the way to move,is, of water.let not the waves move..but motion of water that moves in direction of the waves. Water is powerful in one self . mind over matter . strength is power.but water moves power. Flow moves a wall. But wall cannot stop the flow
Brilliant. He was a marketing Genius
exactly.
If it is truly a 1 inch punch, then Bruce's shoulder should not move forward. BUT, his shoulder moves forward dramatically. About 8 inches. We call this a SHOVE.....but VERY fast nonetheless
Bruce Lee's punch is more like a shove. Watch in slow motion. Critical thinking skills people 👏
Shove punch whatever it was damn impressive just from the simple physics perspective of what happened there. Given Bruce's size and the size of the man on the receiving end and,given the distance he moved....amazing that much force could be generated that quickly.
It's a one inch punch bro, not six inches
Is Ip Man there? I saw Ip Man there in the movie but how about in real life?
Brue lee was too incredible for this world
?
Do this every day 2-3 times a day in single day morning, afternoon and evening before sleep and see the different result in few months to your body transformation seriously sir said me my friends because he learn that how many years to focus that emom challenge in full range of motion with push up and squat and you finish that you are the grandmaster in emom but if you invented that to add weights,add plank workout, neck workout and then see your video of that later during you do that but it's okay before and after during start or later done the challenge of your workout because to increase your core,stamina,endurance and cardio vascular, power, strength, agility, intelligence,like the game in dota.

bruce really just shoved him with 1" if he really fired one to his solar plexus mon be dead...
Wooow😲
I watched this video, but I'm completely stumped. Did Joe Lewis and Bruce Lee ever become friends?
Bruce Lee is a Legend a lot of people think it was Showboat there’s something very special about this individual you should feel privileged to watch this footage. Thank you and thank you for putting this out there I’ve been a fan since as long as I can remember.
Its not a versus per se. Its a demo
i Wish the Bruce Lee footage had audio, would've loved to hear his explanation
Bruce, still features in my life today. The WORLD misses him enormously.
Admirable! Pure technique and POWER.
