This Photo Encapsulates the Bruce Lee and UFC Connection

There was a bit of an uproar over the idea of Bruce Lee being a character in the upcoming EA Sports UFC game, including debate over whether or not Bruce Lee is really the “grandfather of MMA.” In my estimation the relation between the UFC and Bruce Lee is not that deep and feels like a square peg slammed into a round hole for marketing purposes. Some might disagree with that, though.

This photo of Mike Goldberg that has been circulating the internet pretty much sums up how well the UFC and Bruce Lee go together. Note: this is very, very awkward.
