BIG THANKS TO CHUCK NORRIS FOR BEING AN HONEST MAN. WE LOVE YOU CHUCK.

I didn’t see anything in Chuck’s letter, or his video clip, that would qualify as an admission to your accusations, or an “apology” of any kind. I have never heard Chuck say one disparaging thing about Bruce.

He doesn't owe an apology to us and honestly there wasn't one here. He wrote Bruce and it was between them so good on him. I'm 52 years old and loved the martial arts. Back when I was a teen there was very little available to us. Black Belt magazine and the VHS movie tapes. Bruce Lee & Chuck Norris movies, as cheesy as they were......were the best. Every once in a while when the question comes up about anyone you could meet and talk with dead or alive in history, my answer has always been Bruce. That would be cool. Cheers.

You misquoted the video and the letter. Chuck Norris never said he lied about anything, he said he hated that others were lying about it. You are claiming that Chuck Norris lied when he never said anything of that nature.

A true marital artist should never lie. Chuck is a great man.

What Chuck Norris really wanted to say is that Bruce Lee can destroy anyone if he choose to go for a fighting career instead of acting. Joe and Kelly and bob and Dan and other say Bruce was the best. Too fast too powerful too smart at fighting. He’s a fighter who doesn’t need to prove it.

Honorable men admit mistakes. I can see the love for Bruce in his eyes. Respect is all there is between friends.

He still doesn’t apologize

I remember a tv host here in Australia, went to the US to do a story on Chuck & his family, at their home. After watching the story, I was very impressed by how warm & down to earth they all were. How exciting that must have been, to meet the man Chuck, himself

Thanks Chuck you are always one of my favorites and greatest of all time....you movies are inspiring and realistic....and you are one of the greatest martial artist and martial arts actor of all time.

Chuck Norris was 6 time world champion in karate starting in 1968. For Chuck to apologize to Bruce Lee who I followed beginning in 1962 show me Chuck is truly a great man both in martial arts, but in true ethics as well which makes him great 👊

That's brilliant 👏 Both are legends and great men. Thanks for this 👍👍👍

Always loved to see Bruce Lee in his films, the speed, techniques, and sounds he made...just awesome... RIP Bruce Lee...we all miss ya

No one will ever have anyone on Bruce Lee The truth will set you free and that's even you Chuck Norris and any other!!!

I've met Chuck Norris on several occasions on set. Always professional to everyone. Generous as he can be. For years trained in his Studios. As far as an apology letter, I doubt that neither Bruce Lee nor Chuck Norris have to do any apologizing. Didn't see anything in the tiny glimpse of that so called letter about such things. Click bait.

You could of warned me you'd show actual footage of Chuck. He broke the screen on my phone.

Chuck is a great man with a great heart. I'm sure if Bruce was still alive, they'd still be close friends.

Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee. Both are legends .

Chuck Norris is awesome as well!!! Also, long live Walker the Texas Ranger!! How great is that 😊😍😊

I can't believe how good he looks. 82. I'm 47 and already look older than he does.

Chuck is FINALLY A TRUE MARTIAL ARTIST by becoming honourable. for 50 yrs chuck has played down Bruces skills instead prefering to boast about his own and putting across that he was gbenerally superior to Bruce well it took chuck 50 yrs but he has finally admitted how good bruce was and that he didnt need to fight to be famous because he was already there. respect to you finally chuck norris for finally becoming a true martial artist. and in that i mean to be an honourable one.

I had the opportunity to train with Jerry Poteet nearly 20 years ago. The amazing stories of Bruce Lee's strength and speed are 100% true. I could see Bruce's teachings burning within Jerry even at his age and with his medical problems. Don't ever let negative Nancys tell you otherwise about Bruce. Just study Bruce's training techniques, do your best, be kind, be open, otherwise STFU. All the nay-sayers of today would quickly know their folly if they dared criticize Bruce to his face. There are a few MMA guys who picked up on Bruce's energy, and those are the ruthlessly deadly and incredibly nice guys. Just read his books and study his shit already

Bruce Lee was the quickest thank you Chuck Norris for being his friend

Chuck is honorable

Mad respect that Chuck Norris stayed with it and trained with Bruce for 3 years , man the knowledge he must of gained , amazing and well said.

Beerdy this is the video I only respect for you. This is fact and not exaggerated like haters accuse BL fans of.

Chuck Norris owes his career to Bruce - that fight become legend... without Bruce it would have been forgotten in a heartbeat...

Awesome video! I'm telling myself I have no joy and then this video pops up as a suggestion... Yeah.... I got joy! Love Bruce Love Chuck Love martial arts baby!!!!!

It's funny on these online forums people still debating whether GM Lee could fight or if he would've done good in modern combat. Every guy I've trained with from that era, that have touched hands with all of these legends...say Bruce was untouchable. Period. In most underground circles I know...the stories are boundless. I hope we can all move on from any doubt and just listen to what the man came to teach us about Self Expression. He was a Fearless Spiritual Warrior...showing his values with his Life. Like all of the Great Mystics. Look how many people are still inspired by him. It's no question. Blessings to your Families and Happy Training! Oh yeah. Right on GM Norris as well. A legend none the less.

I still don't get what he's apologizing for and why would he deny that Bruce was his teacher?

Not one apology took place here. Chuck never taught or even told Bruce about high kicks....that was already part of his arsenal. That's just one of the misleading comments chuck is responsible for. Look...I fully understand not admitting to lies said as a way to keep one's security or reputation. It's a crappy human condition we all unfortunately share. BUT.... if you're going to do an apology video...you should probably actually apologize. I respect Chuck Norris' lineage and dedication to training. But I won't respect his lies and misleading statements.

Este senhor que está a falar... Não seria ninguém, se não tivesse conhecido Bruce Lee!

I don't think he ever disrespected Bruce, ive always heard him talk respectfully about him

A great explanation of what it really was. No shame here , just plain truth. Nice 1

But Norris still clobbers Bruce Lee in one critical area: the number of jokes about him

Chuck Norris is a very humble man. Big respects to him👍🏿

He admitted in much earlier videos that he trained with Bruce Lee.

I can respect all qualified confessions that completely reternalize equivocators. Thanks to chuck norris and bruce lee for being helpful to followers.

Chuck Norris doesn't make an apology video, the video makes an apology to him.

The only interviews I've seen of Chuck speaking about Bruce were always respectful. They were peers, not competitive at all as Chuck said.

As has been said, you have misrepresented everything included in this video, the letter and the video of Chuck. There was no apology in that letter which is from the 1970s and no apology in the video. He opens the letter wishing Bruce Lee good luck in the movie and then says he wants to clarify any misinterpretations Bruce may have heard about their training together. He said in the letter that he was not ashamed to have trained with Bruce Lee, not that he was ashamed to have lied about it. He never used the word teacher in the letter. He said "It was a privilege learning from you." That is not the same thing as calling someone your teacher. He claimed that he had told hundreds of people he had trained with Bruce, etc. I think this is being exaggerated to become a big apology. If, as the story goes, Bruce Lee was angry in those days because he heard Chuck was telling people he was not Bruce's student, then it would appear the letter from Chuck to Bruce was a reaction to that. However, he still never really characterizes himself as Bruce's student. He's more saying they both learned from each other. The same kind of thing he's always said. Let's be real. He will never apologize.

Chuck Norris……..A Class Act!

I can most certainly understand why Chuck Norris had to put on a mantle of equal or better persona. Chuck being Second Best just would not do in the super hero genre and yet be able to do all he has done. I am not about to take anything away from Bruce Lee OR Chuck Norris. HollyWood is and always has been an imaginary idea of what folks wish. But it can only rarely be achieved. Chuck continuing to play this imaginary role was of course, simply manditory.

They don’t make films like that anymore.Such a shame.. That era ,surfaced so many talented fighters/actors that I was lucky enough to see . We can only say thank you for your talents 👏👏👏

Never seen Chuck Norris so humble and thanking the máster (and friend) for having this masterful scene with him,you go Chuck,Bruce i am sure IS proud to have had a friend likeYOU!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

When was this interview

What did Mr Norris do wrong

Great respect from Bruce's best opponent and close friend.

Met Chuck in California and got to talk with him for about 10 minutes. It was during Pete Wilson's gubernatorial campaign. or his celebration. I was at the Arco Arena. He was very humble and nice.

Imaging if Bruce had set up his film camera for those sparring sessions.....

Chuck Norris is a class act...he and JCVD...both are gr8!!!

God bless you, Chuck!

Good video,perfect title! I remember Chuck "I'm a pro fighter" talk

Merci Chuck la tu es un vrai et grand champion en disant la vérité sur notre Master 1 par qui lui la voie à tracé son chemin comme celui de l'eau ruisselant entre les rochers il va ou il doit allé BE WATER CHUCK

You just know Steven Seagal will never admit he lied about training w/ Bruce Lee ... I don't know what Seagal was smoking when he made up that lie 🤦🤦

I just happened to be watching Walker Texas Ranger the other day & I seen a lot of stunt doubles stand-ins doing the martial arts for Chuck Norris 🤣

Thanks Beerdy and thanks Chuck for your dear honesty as-well insights. Nobody would truly know if you had not shared. It is Insight and Honor! *Cheers!* Sir Nicholas of Seattle 3.29.2023

To put it simply, Bruce Lee was and continues to be the greatest martial artist of all time. His speed and quickness was unmatched. How do you defend against something you can't see? Answer...you can't. And as far as Chuck Norris goes, he is also deserving respect for what he has accomplished. But I heard NO apology to the one and only true master...BRUCE LEE.

That's what's up🙏👊

It takes more courage to admit when you are wrong than it takes to face your enemy in combat. Chuck has alot of courage 😏👍

That’s awesome!

Looks like homer Simpson 🤣 that beard

Official Apology Video From Chuck Norris To Bruce Lee???? So where is the Apology????

You can tell things got to Chucks head when he got big, but he became very humble over the years.

When Chuck Norris looks in the mirror, he sees nothing, because there is only one Chuck Norris

I'm not aware that Norris ever denied working out with Lee... I've seen a few vids of Norris talking about his experiences with Lee. What that letter could be from is some third person or persons misinterpreting something they heard Norris say or thought he said about not giving credit to Lee about Kung Fu as a subject or what have you. The letter clearly says that he writes the letter to wish him success with the movie AND to clear up any misinterpretations of anything he has heard about them training together... He goes on to say he has told hundreds of people they had trained together and that his ego is such that he isn't ashamed of that fact. I think you're grossly in a misunderstanding of this situation.

Chuck has ALWAYS talked about their training together and them trading skills. Bruce taught Chuck some hand movements, Chuck taught Bruce his kicking techniques from Tang Soo Do. They taught EACH OTHER, they were equals, and MOST importantly they were friends. Chuck ALWAYS told people about them training, and NEVER ONCE said anything other than what I described, a friendship where they trained with and learned from each other. Chuck said in that letter he was clearing up what OTHER people said about his stories, and making it clear to Bruce that he always told people of their FRIENDSHIP and that how amazing a martial artist he was, not just a master of King Fu but a master of ALL martial arts, and a master of his own style. That video you showed had NO apology, just another instance in which he told his story about Bruce and him training and learning together as FRIENDS. ALWAYS pay close attention to what people say in writing and in person, because otherwise you end up causing the same rumors that Chuck was clearing up in the letter and his inspiring stories of him and Bruce. You have completely misinterpreted this story and took advantage of people’s trust. If you can truly speak and read English, read the letter. He learned from Bruce, not calling him teacher, and he TAUGHT BRUCE LEE kicks from Tang Soo Do. SHAME on you for lying to these people and for a gross misrepresentation of their friendship. They were BOTH humble enough to say they learned from EACH OTHER. I unsubscribed a TWO years ago because of this video and I’m appalled to see it still up. Shame on you for your dishonesty.

Thanks very much

This little man is gigantic and globally accepted and still loved,but we r not each other enemies even though we remain daily divided OF who's the best --I find OF MOST VAUE --our souls future is JN 3:16,THIS IS OUR MAN CHRIST DID IT FOR US ETC.

Much respect to Chuck Norris.

In the interview Noris is not actually apologizing, more like stating facts about their (Chuck and Bruce) training sessions and what Noris thoughts were concerning Bruce Lee' martial art abilities and conditioning!.

Bruce Lee is a cold blooded killer no one can beat Bruce in a street fight, Bruce Lee is the goat🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

Happy Our American champion is still here with us,looks great for his age. I SEEN CHUCK FIGHT IN THE PKA INFANCY IN THE LATE 70S EARLY 80S..

Chuck Norris is a nine time world kick boxing champion.

Respect is everything!

Chuck isn't apologizing to Bruce. He is clarifying that he always gave credit to bruce for his time spent with him. But Chuck is right, Bruce never proved himself in the ring. He only had a couple sparring matches and never competed full time as a fighter.

Wait hes been admiting that since the 80’s. What am I missing here

The letter says he was not ashamed and was honored to train with Bruce, I see nor hear an apology or any reason for an apology. The letter says "I told hundreds of people I have trained with you".

Godbless these two martial arts expert's

Thank you

He simply wrote that he was ashamed of having an ego about training with Bruce.

We love and respect you chuck your the greatest.

I still can't come forward saying I trained under him, too many people would bother me and then the news would be hunting me down.

If Chuck Norris issues an apology you're seconds away from death.

Chuck Norris can’t lie, if he ever does, the facts instantly change and make it the truth😂

Chuck knows what he said and from which place of him it came in the interview. It does not take much to make things right.

Great Master Bruce it's proud of You Chuck

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you Chuck Norris....I have no memory....but I can relearn everything. - Deadpool

The video was of Chuck describing the training regimen with Bruce, no apology.

You also see in pro-wrestling how some guys are hyped up as the toughest ever and these guys often don't have any fight record. They simply beat up some drunks in a bar. Bruce's case is pretty similar; he has no fight record but lots of people are inflating his image. When a person is dead people find it polite and just to speak highly of them. This also kind of happened to Brandon; his star could have faded fast but his tragic demise caused his last movie to balloon into cult status.

It would be great to see Bruce's reaction to the MMA world today, to see how many scams and shams he could respectively unveil. What a legacy, Bruce, you are missed!

It’s nice to see honor and respect. It seems as if everyone is talking bad on Bruce. Bruce was a machine both mentally and physically. I have a new found respect for Chuck Norris.

Chuck Norris owes no one any apology!!!

Bruce Lee was something different, something special , one of a kind so far , wud hv been alive then probably wud create much more records n throw more surprises in martial art n fighting, such was his impact on d world that 50 years since he died n still he is popular n remembered. Rip. Legend 🌹

It's interesting that Chuck Norris said Bruce Lee didn't have to become a competitive fighter to develop recognition because he was already a star because Bruce Lee himself said in an interview that the terms star and superstar really turns him off because he believed it to be an illusion. I don't know if Bruce Lee was prideful towards people because of his fighting skills, but he seems to have been humble about not desiring to chase superstardom. While other martial artists like Chuck Norris were competing professionally to make a name for themselves, Bruce Lee seems to have become a "star" without even trying. He expressed to Chuck Norris during a private conversation how surprised he was that he was being offered movie roles with a blank check telling him to fill in the amount. He trained hard to keep his body in peak physical condition and to try his best to perfect his own fighting method and he trained other martial artists and fighters including Chuck Norris and Joe Lewis and they won all of the major championships and their own fighting styles greatly improved after training with Bruce Lee.

When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn't lifting himself up, he's pushing the Earth down.

Chuck once was bitten by a King Cobra; the Cobra died three days later. Chuck's tears can cure most known diseases; too bad Chuck never cries.

An honor. I wish we met him in a heaven

GOD BLESS YOU CHUCK ! ILL SEE YA IN ETERNITY !!!!! ( GOD'S GONNA HAVE A BLAST WITH HIS CHILDREN ) 👍❤💪🙏
