In honor of 'True Legend''s U.S. release this week, we asked Yuen to do something even more difficult than fighting a man while standing on a bamboo pole over a pit of fire: pick just five favorite fight scenes from his incredible thirty-plus year career. As you'll see, he cheated a little bit on the last one, but with so many remarkable sequences to his credit, how can you blame him?
Fist of Legend is full of classic fight scenes; he could've done a list of just the fights in that one movie alone and it would've been nearly as good.
