  2. Greatest martial artist are Bruce Lees instructors and his instructor..but above all your respect, patience to even begin to understand that you should never use your skills unless necessary..yes these masters are the real superheroes with unagibale power!!

  3. If Bodhi Dharma taught the chinees, where did he learn this? Isn't that an important point? Why don't you explain about that? There must be much older form of martial art Bodhi Dharma might have practiced.

  4. Helio Gracie, Chuck Norris and Muhammad Ali were genuine fighters, who fought against notable people in tournaments. Bruce Lee never fought after high school and Mas Oyama is claimed to have abused animals as a proof of his martial prowess.
    So yeah, I don't think about the latter two like I do about the former three at all.

  5. What a great video. I particularly liked the end statement inspiring people to look beyond the technique and continue to develop yourself and others. For mine, the greatest martial artist would be Wong Fe Hung. Not only did he gather skills from a range of martial artists and develop that knowledge into the Hung gar system his students can be directly credited with spreading that knowledge throughout the world. There are many stories of his fighting prowess and of his students abilities.

  6. Very respectably, this isn’t making sense. You just say a couple of historical facts before you talk about Japanese fighting. I love karate & study it’s history, but in terms of military history, this is inaccurate.

    You’ve forgotten the empires of India who’s armies’ hand to hand & weapons combat arts & so-called “mortifications” if their yoga and ascetic traditions made Bodhidarma’s ENORMOUS contribution to Asian martial arts/Shaolin boxing possible.

    The other major world empires all had standing armies & conscripts: the khans of Mongolia fought all the way to Europe, the empires of Cambodia AND Siam, those of Ethiopia & the different KMTic empires (the ones that made the pyramids). There were huge military empires in Ghana/Mail/Dahomey in west Africa. The Incas/Aztecs/Olmecs/Mashikas/Haudenoshonee in the Americas. All of these places had government/philosophy/history/religion/CULTURE as well as armies.

    The problem is the west idolizes the Greeks/Romans (who looked to black Egypt for their inspiration) & so any study of military history has this truncated fascination with the Spartans. & of course we all know the Spartans we’re great. Just not the only & CERTAINLY not the first.

    A small discrepancy: Persia had an army of over 100k that beat Sparta and later more Greek City-states. How is it that Persia, the older, larger army with a more experienced leadership isn’t credited as being greater? Because their Asians? They became Muslims? I’m not saying YOU’RE racist or Eurocentric, but this way of thinking is ABSOLUTELY false & based in a post Crusades, Christ-centric ideology that pervades everything.

  7. Bruce Lee the most formidable invincible and incomparable martial artists ever the only person to never turn down a challenge he was considered poun for pound the best in the world during his time but Bruce said pounds had nothing to do with his ability hence he literally boil down to 123 pounds from 150 pounds when he made Entet the Dragon to show he was able to generate the same amount of power with a deduction of 27 pounds what a man what a martial artist gone but lives in peoples hearts long story short

  8. You've missed a trick here. These men deserved a separate channel and their own dedicated videos. There are also some very obvious omissions from your list, including the likes of Gene LaBelle and Imi Lichtenfeld.

  9. This section musashi was hilarious cause I fucking love the guy, however, musashi was not just a great fighter but also one the greatest scumbags of martial arts. Musashi won his first duel by throwing his sword which to Duelists was a big no no. Musashi was famous for arriving late in order to get into his opponents heads in order to eke out any advantage that could be gained. He was a martial artist in the sense that he was only concerned with victory, if he lost he made sure to survive and if he won he ensured his opponent would not survive. A true master of fighting but to say he was not concerned for his life is hilarious.

  10. Ali elevated the level of boxing to its golden era, in terms of international attention to the sport. I consider him the greatest heavyweight of all time, because he was the champion in a time where the heavyweight division was filled to the absolute brim with fighters who would not only have been champions in any other era, but possibly superchampions. If Rocky Marciano had fought in this era, he wouldn't have ended his career undefeated, and an argument could be made that he never would've even been champion at all. It was in this era that Ali was king. His reign had more competition than any other, yet he decisively proved his supremacy at every turn. He was a champion of champions. And yet, his impact on the evolution of boxing as a fighting style pales in comparison to that of Sugar Ray Robinson. The style that made Ali famous is an imitation of Robinson's; Ali himself says this and admits that Robinson is the greatest of all time. In fact, even 70 years later, boxers still study Robinson's tapes religiously and attempt to imitate them. He was just that good, and that far ahead of his time. The term "pound-for-pound" was literally created to describe his greatness, since he wasn't a heavyweight. To put it into perspective using comparisons, it was like if Tyson's power, unique angles, and weight shifting, Ali's footwork and speed (except even better and more developed), and Roy Jones Jr.'s hand speed and overall talent was combined into single fighter. He lived in an age where boxers would fight hundreds of times over the course of their careers, which were often decades longer than they should've been (like Roy Jones Jr. recently lol). He was an absolute monster, and many of his early fights weren't even filmed, so we may never know if what we can see of him was actually him in his prime. Just from the tapes that remain of him, he's still considered by a majority of boxing experts to be the greatest pound-for-pound boxer of all time, to this day. He was the epitome of a boxer, and his like has and never will be seen again.
