Talking about gems of wisdom, when the restaurant guys were saying how much better than karate was Chinese boxings Bruces reply was a piece of pure wisdom, and I will paraphrase a little" It isn't that one art is better than the other, it depends on the man using it" Bruce saw that all forms of fighting are only as effective as the practitioner wants it to be, it all about how much heart you put into it.

Now these two legends are gone, RIP :(

The cat is actually symbolic of Bruce!! The beginning scream symbolizes Bruce's attack!! The cat playing with the ball symbolizes Bruce toying with Colt by adopting to a more fluid move in move out attack.

Even when I first saw this as a kid, I KNEW this was an ultimate showdown. No two martial artists matching up on film will ever top this fight. So epic.

Bruce hyperextended Chuck’s right elbow.  It was difficult to actually see because of Bruce’s speed.

One of the best fight scenes in history masterfully done.

Way of the Dragon is probably my favorite BL movie. I have always loved the dual-wield nunchuck scene.

The cat represents the way in which the fight progresses. Obviously in Bruce's favour. I thought that was a very nice touch. Wouldn't be surprised if the idea didn't originate from the legend himself. My all time favourite fight scene. Organic and very well choreographed by Bruce.

Bruce Lee was using feints, footwork, nd low kicks before top mma fighters were even born

I think my favorite part of the fight (I mean, besides ALL of it) is that little head shake at the end from Bruce (9:38). He knows Chuck's done, and wants to give him that one chance to walk away.

The cat playing with the rock is symbolism for how Bruce is just toying with Chuck at that point.

That kick above his head during warm up is nuts

I love how narratively they had a language barrier but they both instantly knew they were worthy opponents

On the set of "Code of Silence" , Chuck often changed the subject when asked about this fight. It was asked what was the most difficult part. He said he almost passed out from the fall he took from Lee's reverse leg sweep near the end. They did it three times. The last take is what they kept. You can see Chuck grabbing his lower back whincing. Bruce waved the crew back saying, "Keep rolling" when the nurse started to his aid. Bruce wanted reality even if he seemed...less gracious.  Chuck knew he had a career after that.

By some distance still the greatest fight scene ever. Powerful

You know how great Bruce is when you hear someone say “Wow what was that? Let’s have another look!”

They didn't show this in the movie, but Colt actually survived but lost his memories. When he recovered from his injuries, he ended up in Texas and became a Texas Ranger.

This is my best and favorite Bruce Lee movie, this movie was awesome

The cat symbolizes the different states of the fight: Observing - Aggression - Playing with your prey ... And Colt wanted to be killed in the end, cause he couldn't stand to lose a fight. And Bruce knew that

When this movie first hit the Roosevelt theater in 1972 in downtown Chicago i watch it several times in one month. I love the music soundtrack.
