《名人传记》之我是李小龙16:武术修为源于咏春但高于咏春

 　　Bruce Lee has a fight with the guy and he doesn't beat him fast enough,so he goes off to rethink it all,and these tales all had the structure of myth and fantasy little parables¹ about the master.

　　李小龙击败了黄，但却略显拖沓，因此他开始反思总结。不过这些故事就稍带夸张意味了，就像寓言里的情节一般。

　　He said, "My training in Wing Chun, my classical art,didn't prepare me for this kind of a battle."That was the beginning of the evolution of his own way of martial² arts.

　　他说，"我所钻研的经典武学咏春在实战中不够实用"。这就是他将之改进，最终发展出自己武学风格的开端。

　　If you read the notes that he left behind,1965 he starts to write,"My style is Western fencing,Western boxing and Wing Chun."He said he owe our knowledge to the Wing Chun,but we're gonna go beyond the Wing Chun.

　　读读他生前留下的笔记就知道，从1965年他便开始总结"我的风格要融西方剑术拳击以及咏春为一体"。他说他的武术修为源于咏春但应该高于咏春

　　Bruce Lee took a lot from boxing.He felt boxing was more realistic in that you were trading blows.He likes the boxing footwork.Cause it's alive, it's moving and it changes.

　　李小龙从拳击中学到了很多，他觉得拳击在出拳时显得更加实用，而且拳击的步法也值得借鉴，因为它敏捷快速、灵活多变。

　　He was totally invested in watching boxing films,going way back to Jack³ Gene⁴ Tunney, Dempsey.Johnson,

　　当时他沉浸于观摩拳击电影之中，仔细观察了杰克·约翰逊、吉内·滕尼、登普西等人

　　What he took from Dempsey was the kinetic⁵ chain,how to generate power, the importance of a good jab.There's a lot about the alignment⁶ of the body.Bruce had a huge collection of boxing films,and he thought the world of Muhammad Ali.

　　他观察了登普西的发力过程，学会了如何蓄力以及刺拳的要点。这其实更关乎整个身体的协调。布鲁斯收藏了大量拳击的影视资料，而且他尤其关注穆罕穆德·阿里。

　　What he would do was very unique.I once came in, lights were all out.And he's watching this 8mm film and he's watching it backwards⁷.

　　他行事风格独一无二，有一次我去找他，他关上了房间的灯。他正在看八毫米胶片电影，而且是倒着看的。

　　Ali had a left-foot forward stance and Bruce a right foot forward.So he would run the films backward in the film editor and study them meticulously⁸.

　　阿里习惯左脚在前的站位，而布鲁斯是右脚在前，所以他在编辑胶片时从后往前放，然后一丝不苟地研究。
