The best kararte, kick boxers, ultimate fighters would NEVER survive against pro boxers...
Boxers are trained to punch so hard that most non-boxers would not survive their strikes. I love watching Chuck Liddell but he could NOT beat a good boxer in the same weight class. No way.
Bruce Lee would have been devasted by an Ali jab, a right cross or uppercut would have sent Lee into the front row...after taking a few jabs, Lee would have be avoiding Ali all night long.
The power of a boxer's punch can't be underestimated.

This is total nonsense.
You obviously have absolutely no knowledge of martial arts.

dead guys are easy to hit, even if you do have Parkinsons.
Whatever. I happen to know that Bruce Lee shares a villa with Elvis at a Baja singles resort.
Dead. Ha!

yupchagee -- you may be right about my lack of martial arts knowledge but I'll turn that around and say -- you have no feel for boxing.
Boxers have a lot heavier hands and wouldn't have a problem with the taps put on them by martial arts guys...
Back on topic -- Lee would NOT survive the impact of the weight differential between his 150lbs and Ali's 220...no way.

TAPS by martial arts guys??????????
Heavier hands????????
Read my previous posts. Martial artists have a much larger arsenal than boxers. Boxers punch. Martial artist punch. They can also strike with their feet, knees & elbows. We also have a wide variety of other hand techniques. Someone like Lee also had an encyclopedic knowledge of pressure points (yes, they are real, not like in the movies, but they are real).

Bruve Lee won a fight were the opponent broke his back, if he can survive breaking his back he can survive a punch from a boxer

...a man can survive a broken back, it ain't as easy to survive a broken neck...

I'm not aware of any broken necks (or backs) from boxing. Lee had far to many weapons for any boxer to handle.

Not me! My facts are right on the money...and despite the debate, my pick stays the same.
At least I'm consistent.
