Wow this is a very interesting thread......I don't see anyone beating Bruce Lee tbh! He's the master of all masters

didn't Van Damme get KTFO by Frank Zito at Stars in NYC, he shouldn't go to far in this tourney based upon that fact

Van Damme was drunk and was sucker punched, that shouldn't count.

thats him. i vote him just b/c of the faces he made in bloodsport  and when he grabbed the long haired guys scarf and showed in to van damme and let him see it and then grabbed it real hard and said something like your next. i think there was a big legal battle for that movie b/c is based on certain actual events by an american that did well in an asian tournament but i don't think he liked the way he was portrayed or somethiing he did not like.

OK #1 Bruce Lee moves out of the first round with an 12-1 win over Phillip Rhee. My vote was for Bruce.

Matchup #2

#2 Tony Jaa - He has trained for an unspecified time in Tae Kwon Do, he is highly skilled in Muay Thai but there is no evidence at present to suggest a formal training history or competitive career, he was also trained in Aikido and Jiu Jitsu
                                           vs.
#15 Dolph Lundgren - holds a rank of 3rd Dan Black Belt in Kyokushin Karate, European champ in 1980-81

Thumbs UP for Tony Jaa


Thumbs DOWN for Dolph Lundgren

@buffalo ben actually almost all the actors on this list have a background in martial arts, it's just for fun, if you don't want to join in and vote you don't have to.

they are martial artists, but how many of them were or are competitive prize fighters? IT doesn't matter how good their moves look, if they arent actual fighters there is no basis for estimating who would win between them
