Bruce Lee Vs. Chuck Norris Fight First Reaction (Gen Z and Millennials React) 

The greatest martial arts match up in cinematic history!

"Did he just use the Force?" Nope, just The Bruce.

This was one of the best fight scenes of all time.

I should’ve known by the title of the video(Gen Z and Millennials React) that the reaction to one of the greatest match ups in martial arts on film would be less than deserving but the level of immaturity was surprising...

Bruce had a big respect for Norris as a martial artist. That’s why he personally asked him to play his nemesis in Way.

The beauty of this fight is how the choreography tells a story. In the first half, Chuck is pure Karate and Bruce is trying to match his style hoping to beat him at his own game. But Chuck is larger and stronger (and maybe (gasp) *better* than Bruce at Karate) which is why Bruce gets his butt handed to him. When Bruce realizes he can't beat Chuck at his style, Bruce switches it up. This is why he begins hopping back and forth. He starts to avoid Chuck's assaults instead of trying to take them head on. Bruce is no longer telegraphing his own moves. Chuck can no longer predict his attacks (notice how Chuck keeps looking down at Bruce's feet trying to get an idea of what he is going to do next, but can't). Bruce's attacks now come out of nowhere and are lighting fast! And of course- Chuck will not give up despite the fight being over several moves ago. Bruce even warns him to just stop. Go home and heal. But Chuck's ego won't let him. Bruce is forced to kill him (and classic Bruce- instantly feels guilt for having to do it). One of the greatest fights of Old School Martial Arts cinema!

At the time of filming, Chuck Norris was the reigning and defending Karate middleweight champion a title he held for six straight years.

Bruce wanted Chuck to play Colt, when he asked Chuck said "So you want to beat the World champion?" & Bruce replied "No, I wan't to KILL the World champion!" Also, yes, Chuck was a little overweight in this movie, they decieded they wanted him to be bigger, so he looked more untimidating, he tried to bulk up, but he didn't have much time.

The greatest martial art fight ever!!! Bruce Lee vs Chuck Norris. Much respect to both of them.

This is how you end Chuck Norris jokes! 🤣

there's a reason why Bruce's physique has pretty much gone unmatched ever since i believe at one point he got down to something like 5-8% body fat, drifting between 140-160 pounds, and still hit with the force of a heavyweight boxer dude was one. body, soul, and mind; the definition of legendary

" Chuck's going to fake getting a phone call , right now . " Best remark of the day !!!

One of the best action movies I have ever seen its shame they dont make movies like this anymore.

When chuck Norris goes to sleep he looks under his bed for Bruce Lee

@7:10 mark that arm bar bruce does is so quick sheesh love that move

That was as close to a real to the death fight between two professionals as you will ever see, two absolute masters.

Boy how long have you been in the basement... i guess you don't know what Bruce did for the martial arts and Chucks past.

DUdes you have to step that scene one frame at a time to see how Bruce broke Chucks arm. I have seen this nearly one hundred times. I am still inspired as a fifty year old, to work out like him today.

Return of the Dragon/Way of the Dragon is my favorite Bruce Lee movie behind Chinese Connection/Fists of Fury

The difference between modern fight scenes and Bruce's fight scenes is not only very minimal cuts and zoomed out camera to appreciate the technique and skill of the actor/athletes, but also there is physical dialogue and story telling without needing to say anything based purely on facial expressions, body language and the strategies, faints, distancing, and foot work only real fighters can understand and appreciate. Genius work that is still unsurpassed. Now a days, there's too much over acting in fight scenes, too many cuts, shaky cameras, fancy tricks that are not realistic, and close camera work, not to many speeding up and frame skipping to make the actors faster. (Bruce never sped up any of his fight scenes, sometimes they had to be slowed down so his stunt men could move with him accordingly)

Did he just use the force? 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 You guys were hilarious.

1:02 “omg look how he’s flexing that” lmaoo this dude is so shocked

The cat or kitten witnessed the greatest ancient fight in the world and in history, the undisputed King Bruce Lee forever 🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🐱😱😱🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😏👊👊🤫🤫🤫

no way have they not seen this LOL this is legendary

What you guys may not know is that Bruce was attempting to show, at the start of the fight, that he was being too rigid and traditional, which is why he was losing at first. But then, when he became more flexible, adapting with rhythm and light on his feet, he began to win. This can be applied to life's daily obstacles as well.

One of the few depictions of a "realistic" fight between two skilled fighters, in that there's an actual feeling out process before they really started cutting loose.

"Hairy white guy versus the most athletic specimen of all time!" "Are you gonna even try this, bro!?!" "What are you doing!?!" This is the best Bruce Lee reaction video I've watched.

Chuck was Bruce's best student !!!

The basement boys are hilarious!! But this was one of the best martial arts fight ever!!

Yes, they are fighting in the Coliseum. This movie takes place in Rome.

Some give an Oscar to the 🐈.

Jackie Chan vs. Benny Urquidez in Meals on Wheels. My fave.

People forget, Bruce Lee directed WAY OF THE DRAGON and was also the main star. Of course he wasn't gonna let Chuck Norris kick his ass or kill him in this movie.

I think if this was a REAL fight, Norris would not have laid a hand on Bruce. It was sensationalized for the film.

I remember when the first chuck Norris movie came out in the 70s. "Good Guys Wear Black," if memory serves. People asked "Who's Chuck Norris?" The answer was always "He was in a Bruce Lee movie."

Best fight scene ever filmed…or ever will be

If anyone had At Least..A CHANCE at Laying a hit in on BRUCE IT WAS CHUCK!!!

At 2:51, that’s not a Roundhouse Kick, that was a Spin Kick. A Roundhouse Kick (also known as round kick or turning kick) is a kick in which the practitioner lifts the knee while turning the supporting foot and body in a semicircular motion, extending the leg striking with the lower part of the shin and/or the instep (top of the foot).

Bruce Lee put that Ali footwork on him. Didn't work for Chuck, because he didn't have any rhythm. Lol

Bro if you never watched it so you come from mars

Seen Bruce's movies and most of if not all of Chuck's both are world class fighters of different styles but Bruce had a significant hand in advancing the martial arts worldwide early on not to take away from Chuck. To train your whole life to be as good as they were I can't imagine the sacrifice and dedication it must of taken to be world champion in Chuck's case and in Bruce's case could easily be world champion in his weight class although it was never bestowed upon him. I was glad to be around to witness this greatness and in Bruce's case sad he left us way to early R.I.P.

Chuck Norris plays hurting really good, it looks like he's hurt bad for real, soo realistic. Haven't seen hurting like that in a long while. Even tho Chuck is I think 7 time Karate champ. Chuck would praise Bruce highly in his skills as a martial artist.

A little background, when they mention the Colosseum, Bruce and the crew snuck in to film this scene. They didn't have the right to it officially.

The name of the movie was "Game of Death" and Bruce only filmed a few scenes in it (including this one) before his death. He was recording this JUST after he finished recording "Enter the Dragon" which was getting ready for release at the time of his death. They finished Game of Death and it's not a bad movie, but the guy they brought in to replace Bruce -well, he can act like Bruce a little but you can mostly tell it's not him anymore.

I love it. Classic. When I was a early teen we would have "serious" conversations about who was better. We all loved Bruce Lee & Chuck Norris, but kicking in school yard fights was considered feminine. Kind of like which ever one of you said Chuck needs to shave his back & chest. Too funny. Thanks guys.

He didn't die from overdosing on pills. He had a severe allergic reaction and his brain swelled up which made him fall into a coma and then die

That was at the Colosseum in Rome, Italy - or, at least, it’s supposed to be. Bruce (who directed _Way of the Dragon_ as well as being its star) shot the film on location in Rome except for interiors and certain other parts (such as this fight), which were instead shot in a studio set at Golden Harvest in Hong Kong. Before this fight are bits that were shot in the genuine Colosseum but when Bruce and Chuck finally meet for this fight we are no longer on location and are instead seeing a studio set made to look like part of the Colosseum.

He should of chuckled in the towel 😂

This scene is about what Bruce always said that technic, style is not exist.. So when he fight just kibg fu he lose, when fight whithout rules, styles he wins

If you chill with the commentary you'll notice the cracks when Bruce dismantled Chuck.

It is the colosseum 😂

I seem to recall slow motion kick sequence in this fight. Not certain this is the complete original scene.

Yes. Yes they are fighting at the Colosseum in Rome. That is where this scene is set.

chuck is no joke dont let his bod trick u he is lethal

Bruce Lee is super sayian in normal form

What about Bolo Yeung? Wouldn't he also be considered a physically specimen like Bruce Lee was? Bolo Yeung is built like a bodybuilder. Just like Michael Jai White.

Chuck Norris..is Definately One ofmthe Few Relics of That Era of Martial Artists Left...This On SCREEN FIGHT SHOULD BE SHOWCASED IN THE MUSUEM OF LIKE..INTERNATIONAL WONDERS..OR SOMETHING!!!

Did you guys review THE MAN FROM NOWHERE (S Korean film, 2010)?

There’s no dialogue between the two because in the original movie the two don’t speak the same language. This movie is dubbed in English so the English speaking public can understand it without reading subtitles. But, originally in the movie setting, Bruce’s character speaks only Chinese and, of course, Norris’s character only speaks English. THAT’S why there is no discussion between the two characters.

I just notice Chuck was on his chest face down when Bruce left the seen but when Bruce came back he was face up on his back. Who turned him over???

I like the hair trim lol and the cat was the like the referee

When this movie was made Chuck Norris was martial arts world champion

Don’t think Chuck was 6 times world karate champion when this film was made .

If you like old school martial arts films then you absolutely need to watch the first one that was played in the mainstream US called Five Fingers of Death.

Bruce actually asked Chuck to put on weight for this film (so the size contrast between them would be even more noticeable). With limited time to do so, Chuck indulged himself you might say -- pancakes and all the rest. That's why he looked a little plump in this scene. If you watch 'A Force of One,' you'll see Chuck in his true fighting physique.

That's fucking sick Bruce actually counters all chucks counter movements 5:58

Can't believe they haven't seen it

I'd rather be the part than look the part. Bruce went to see Chuck compete in tournaments.

it surprised me knowing there are still peoples that never watch this movie all their life

Warmeet dont disrespect professional wrestling. Like the Macho Man, "im gonna get you"

Both characters are incredible Bruce Lee died of Swelling in the brain not overdose

Bruce Lee didn't die because of a sleeping drug, but because of a painkiller, there was a subsance in the painkiller he was allergic for without knowing and he suffered a brain oedema.

Bruce passed away due to a cerebral edema (brain hemorrhage) some say it was due to an allergic reaction to "one" pain pill taken called Equagesic given to him by Betty Ting Pei and it was again only (1) tablet 🙏

Why do people always say Bruce Lee vs Chuck Norris. When it's their characters fighting. LMAO I grew up watching both of them. It always make me laugh hearing people talk about this fight like its both of them actually fighting lol.

That cat....

This should be a UFC fight

Please don't forget that Chuck is 7 times World Karate Champion🏆..! Although Bruce is too fast as cameras needs to slow motion picture.. 😇🥰🥰😜🤣🤣

And Chuck Norris would not lose a fight on screen again until he fought a genetically enhanced superhuman on an episode of Walker Texas Ranger. (Yes that's an actual thing that happened on an episode of Walker Texas Ranger)

Allergic reaction to aspirin

the one and only Greatest Martial Artist of all time who ever walk in this planet. "Bruce Lee"

>Goku has to Lose every fight against Vegeta? True. >like a jobber So, Goku.

😅that hairy white guy was a competing world champion bro...dont let his appearance and Walker Texas Ranger fool you😅

Bruce asked chuck to put on some weight for the movie so there was a big physical difference between them. Chuck was generally a lot lighter and cut at the time. He had already won several World championships at this stage. He started with Karate but anytime he saw something that he felt could beat him he learned it to Black belt levels. I love bruce but chuck is a bad mf

Jon Jones actually uses one of Bruce's moves.

We all know Bruce Lee is a badass but don't disrespect Chuck Norris because of the way he looks. Chuck is the real deal.

Wait you people call yourself MEN? And you've never seen Chuck Norris VS. Bruce Lee?? C'mon now! Well hope you enjoyed it!

If it has not been said below, the reason he killed him is because he would rather die fighting than give up fighting. And the Bruce character knew this hence he gestured, no don't, but knew what was ultimately coming.

Guys with all due respect it was one pill(credit to: vic20kid) that killed Bruce...please do your homework for goodness sake.

Chuchs is a 7xkarate world champions.bruce gave him a big amount of money just to make him down on their big scene

Why are there so many chuck Norris jokes but no Bruce Lee jokes? Bcuz Bruce Lee is no joke. Chuck doesn't die because he's afraid Bruce is waiting to kick his ass on the other side

Bruce asked Chuck to gain weight for this role.

Said butch Only I hop....Bring me my waffles

Bruce asked Chuck to put on weight for the fight

This was the first BL movie I ever seen in 1992 and it influenced me to join martial arts

bruce lee took a pain medication pill, not sleeping pills, he was relurgic to the pain medication

Chuck was world champion at the time of filming. Bruce died from a cerebral oedema after taking a painkiller called equagesic, his death was ruled as death by misadventure. The warm up bit at the start was a traditional thing. Bruce and chuck became great friends after Bruce was impressed with chuck's reign as champion. Chuck along with several mma fighters and boxers have said that Bruce was the inventor of mma and theres no doubt he would have been champion if mma had been around for him to compete in. Bruce used to chew hashish leafs to calm his nerves as people used to want to fight him all the time. In enter the dragon at the end one of the bad guys jumps on Bruce's back and grabs him. Bruce dispatches him quickly. This was real, the guy in question was a stuntman that thought bruce was a phoney.

Ahhh no dudes! Bruce died of arsenic poisoning. Two signs of AP are fainting and fingernails turning black. He was experiencing fainting spells during the making of Enter the Dragon and his autopsy, all of his fingernails had turned black. "Arsenic Poisoning " the two "Sleeping pills" that he was given were laced with arsenic and is what finished him off. He died the same way his teacher died in his Chinese Connection movie which was produced by Raymond Chow (Who Bruce was beefing with) interesting! The legend was murdered bro's!

Watch the rest of the movie

The scene where they fighting a slow motion they had to slow it down because they were fighting too fast the reason why Bruce is moving the legs like that because he learned that from Muhammad Ali

you canclearely see they're fighting in a studio with a pictuare of the colosseum on the wall :) That's nonsense, because in the movie plot it wasn't even the colosseum. Not even "The Gladiator" wash shoot ib the Colosseum. The first movie to be shot in the colosseum was "Jumper"
