The master-student tradition holds a special mention throughout history. There are several instances where the student excelled and surpassed his master’s skills and fame. And history eventually forgets the master in the process. Notably, Royce Gracie surpassed his father, Helio Gracie, who invented Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and revolutionized the MMA. Similarly, a pair before them, IP Man and his student Bruce Lee can claim to have had another significant impact. As a result, when their vintage picture made the rounds on the internet, the fans had one reaction, sheer respect for both legends.

Significantly, the UFC star Jorge Masvidal recently shared a vintage picture of the famous master-student duo and MMA legends, IP Man and Bruce Lee, on his famous Facebook handle. Therefore, gaining the traction of the fans.

How did the fans react to Bruce Lee and IP Man’s picture?

Masvidal, 38, is currently facing a slump in his UFC career after his previous three fights ended with a loss. However, the welterweight fighter, who has a lot to offer inside the Octagon, also keeps his fans entertained through his noted social media handle.

The theme of content on his page revolves around combat sports in general. On the other hand, ‘Gamebred‘ also offers hot takes and subtle digs. Markedly, he shared a post from MMA Legends and called both the personalities involved ‘legends’.
