Jackie Chan Had ‘No Questions’ Admitting Bruce Lee, Labeled as the ‘Father of Mixed Martial Arts’ by Dana White, Will Beat Him in a One-on-One Battle

Hollywood stars Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan are known for their profound mixed martial arts display in their movies. The Hongkong-based star, Chan, who considers ‘Little Phoenix’ as his idol, picked who would win a martial arts contest in a hypothetical bout.

Martial Arts has a very rich history. Besides, it has multiple categories, from striking forms to the grappling and submission arts. Though it was initially not popular with the general audience, one man that contributed significantly to raising awareness among people in the United States and around the world about martial arts was – Bruce Lee.

Jackie Chan followed in the footsteps of ‘Little Dragon’. Thus, these two played a part in showing the art of fighting to people in a way not done before through their movies. Since the two are pioneers in martial arts, their fans often wonder who would edge the other if they fought?

In a TMZ interview, a reporter asked Jackie Chan, “Jackie, in your prime versus Bruce Lee – Who would win?”

The humble star responded with no hesitation, “Bruce Lee.”

The quick reply shocked the reporter, and they asked, “Really?”

The Drunken Master star confirmed and said, “Yes.”

Yet, the reporter asked again, “No questions?”

But the author of Never Grow Up stayed at his original idea and said, “No questions.”
