Bruce Lee was probably one of the hardest working athletes of all time. The guy wouldn't stop finding and developing speed and strength in new muscles that us mortals would never know we had. Pound for pound and adapting his technique and style to match the modern competition my amateur opinion is he would be one of the best in the octagon. The mans work ethic was unmatched, to the point it killed him.

You take him at 130lbs and 5'7 and match him with his old style to todays mma athletes weighing in at 250lbs he'd most likely get his ass handed to him. But he'd make those guys pay dearly for their win. I'd take a hit from the Gracies or Shamrocks before Id ever let Bruce at me. I wouldn't doubt he could stab a finger through flesh.
