Anderson Silva on Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan



Anderson Silva on Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee:

As far back as I can remember, I adored the martial arts and idolized its practitioners. In my mind, Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan were nothing less than superheroes. I watched all of their movies several times over and dreamed of the day when I could learn all the moves that allowed them to best any foe.

Amazingly Anderson Silva has actually achieved this dream. The moves he pulls off in the cage are so remarkable and unique, that if one were to describe them beforehand people who retort that they are not possible. But Anderson has been able to practice them so diligently and believe in himself to the point that they become a natural part of his game. The seemingly "impossible" movie-esque type of techniques become reality inside the UFC Octagon or any of the other rings and cages Anderson has competed in.
