this is a tough one. I am biased towards jet li since he has some sick ass movies(from hk, not hollywood). he has earned any martial arts awards throughout his lifetime, mostly when he was growing up. the way I see it, Bruce lee was out to sell himself and make him look like a legend; jet li was just triying to make it big since he was a little kid.
Bruce lee was definetly a better fighter although jet li did win a lot of tournaments in his day. Burce was pretty much unstoppable. He lived and breathed martial arts. Sort of like roy jones is to boxing. Jet li definely has more spectacular moves on screen though. If you haven't seen the movie fist of legend definetly do. He may be on kazaa for some of his moves in that movie too.
true that. but I also think that he is not as good as he is cracked up to be. granted he is a PIONEER, like bob marley(I also dont think he is good), but they are the ones that have made a name for themselves and their skills.
Jackie Chan is incredibly skillful too, not to mention creative.

I think Bruce Lee was the best he could be during his time, if he was around today who knows how much more he could've become. It's hard to compare people from two different decades --even Babe Ruth's record had to be broken eventually.
