How would Bruce Lee actually do against me in a fight?
He was said to usually be 5'-7", 135 lbs., while I am 5'-11" with extreme weight of 270 to 410 lbs. (320-360# usually), I am far stronger than he actually was. His gym records in several magazines by now show he squatted with 95 lbs. while I do 850#. There are some hoaxes making comical claims about his strength. When I was a boy, I deduced how Spartans built bones of steel and copied it. A 275 lbs. man broke his hand by punching me in the abdomen. A man broke a billy club on my head futilely.
I was a born fighter. At age 6, when I began school, an 11 year old bully much larger than I was attacked me, and I beat him. At age 12, I was attacked by a 16 year old bully who was 80% heavier, and I quickly beat him. He laughed about it later. I am incredibly quick. The Exploratorium in San Francisco had a machine to test speed. In years, no one was 1/20 as fast as I am. My foes move in slow motion to me, so I am good in several sports. I walk tightropes and shuffle cards in each hand.

In actuality, he would have no chance against you, if both of you were at your best. Small men do not beat huge men, except in juvenile fiction. I think the stories about Bruce Lee are exaggerated. There is nothing substantial about his actual abilities in fighting. The stories of David and Goliath and Jack The Giant Killer are credible only to small children.

All martial arts competitions have weight classes. If lightweights often beat superheavyweights is no need of such weight classes. You have huge advantage over Bruce Lee who was actor not competitive fighter. You easily kill Bruce Lee.

Anybody who imagines that 135 lbs men can beat 270-410 lbs. men if all are athletic and skilled is daft. I've seen Brucie's gym records in "Muscle & Fitness" and other mags. I can outlift him, and so can some girls smaller than him. His excuses for not competing are lame. He was supposed to be in street fights and movie fights, so why not martial arts competitions too? That makes no sense. I guess he'd make lame excuses for not fighting you, like he made for not competing. I say you win by default.

We will never know, however you must be fitter. because you outlived him.
