"Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth." Mike Tyson, prior to a fight with Evander Holyfield.
It's important to remember that Bruce Lee was never in a real fight. Oh, some say he fought on the streets as a kid, boxed once in school or something, blah blah blah. He was an actor.
A large part of fighting is heart. How a guy reacts to getting hit. Ali was noted for his ability to absorb an unusual amount of punishment while continuing to fight. No one has ever said that about Bruce Lee, nor did he ever choose to put himself in any sort of position to demonstrate that ability. Quite the contrary, he avoided the ring at all costs, for his entire life. He was an actor.
