Would Tony Jaa be a match for Bruce Lee?

Yes I know Tony Jaa and Bruce Lee are from two completely different time periods but just imagine if they did fight. I made this thread because Tony Jaa is touted to be the next master of action cinema like what Bruce Lee was before he died. They both have different philosophies for combat so who do you think will be the victor in a fight ?

Lee’s striking speed from three feet with his hands down by his side reached five hundredths of a second.* Lee could spring a 235lb opponent 15 feet away with a 1 inch punch.* Lee’s combat movements were at times too fast to be captured on film at 24fps, so many scenes were shot in 32fps to put Lee in slow motion. Normally martial arts films are sped up.* In a speed demonstration, Lee could snatch a dime off a person’s open palm before they could close it, and leave a penny behind.* Lee could perform push ups using only his thumbs.* Lee would hold an elevated v-sit position for 30 minutes or longer.* Lee could throw grains of rice up into the air and then catch them in mid-flight using chopsticks.* Lee performed one-hand push-ups using only the thumb and index finger.* Lee performed 50 reps of one-arm chin-ups.* From a standing position, Lee could hold a 125lb barbell straight out. * Lee could break wooden boards six inches thick.* Lee performed a side kick while training with James Coburn and broke a 150-pound punching bag.* Lee could cause a 300-lb bag to fly towards and thump the ceiling with a sidekick.* In a move that has been dubbed “Dragon Flag”, Lee could perform leg lifts with only his shoulder blades resting on the edge of a bench and suspend his legs and torso perfectly horizontal midair. * Lee could thrust his fingers through unopened steel cans of Coca-Cola, at a time before cans were made of the softer aluminum metal.* Lee would use one finger to leave dramatic indentations on pine wood.

Muay Thai is often referred to as “the art of eight limbs” because of its use of punches, kicks, elbow and knee strikes. The history of how it began is the stuff of legends. The style of fighting is thought to have developed because of the migration of tribes from China through Vietnam to Cambodia. The major tribe was the Siamese who were also known as the Tai. They fought fiercely to dominate the tribes they found along the way from the south to the north and Central Thailand. Through conflict, combat styles and techniques improved and soon, fathers were passing them along to their sons and they in turn evolved the styles and techniques.
