當武術傳奇人物和武打巨星查克·羅禮士（Chuck Norris）分享對李小龍的看法時，您應該聽一聽。在他的 World Net Daily專欄上，查克·羅禮士以其親身經歷，回憶了李小龍的個人魅力，適應能力，以及截拳道大師是否有機會對抗空手道冠軍。
李小龍的長處
羅禮士：「事實是，李小龍是一個強大的對手，他體格強壯，格鬥技術精湛。
我非常喜歡和他一起訓練，願意花時間和他在一起。
無論在賽場上，還是在生活中，他都和在電影中一樣，充滿魅力和友善。
他的自信和機智令人眼花繚亂，有時甚至會讓其他人顯得弱小。
李的速度快如閃電，非常敏捷，以他的體型來說，他難以置信的強壯。」
李小龍的適應能力
羅禮士： 「李小龍向每個人學習，他的思想非常開放。
他從不相信只有一種武術風格，或認為某一種武技是唯一優越的。
他認為每件事都有長處和短處，我們應該從每一種方法中取長補短 」。
李小龍VS羅禮士的可能性
羅禮士：「我會在真正的比賽中擊敗李小龍嗎？
請你原諒我用另一種李小龍式的方式來回答：'炫耀是傻瓜的榮耀。' 」
儘管他們的夢想之戰從未在現實世界中成真，但史詩般的戰鬥可以在1972年的李小龍電影 《猛龍過江》中看到。
When martial arts legend and political juggernaut Chuck Norris shares his thoughts on Bruce Lee, you listen. On his WorldNetDaily column, Chuck Norris discusses Bruce Lee's charm, adaptability, and whether the jeet kune do master would have stood a chance against the karate champ.
Bruce Lee's Strengths
Chuck Norris: "The truth is Lee was a formidable opponent with a chiseled physique and technique. I totally enjoyed sparring and just spending time with him. He was as charismatic and friendly in the ring and at home as he was on film. His confidence and wit were dazzling, and sometimes even debilitating to others. […] Lee was lightning fast, very agile and incredibly strong for his size."
Bruce Lee's Adaptability
Chuck Norris: "Bruce Lee learned from everybody. He had a very open mind. He never believed in only one martial arts style or that one was superior. He believed that everything had strengths and weaknesses and that we should find the strengths in each method."
Bruce Lee's Chances Against Chuck Norris
Chuck Norris: "Would I have beaten Bruce Lee in a real competition, or not? You'll forgive me for answering with another Bruceism: 'Showing off is the fool's idea of glory.' "
While their dream fight never became a reality in the ring, the epic battle can be seen in the 1972 Bruce Lee film The Way of the Dragon (also released as Return of the Dragon).
