You talking about the fight that was in "Dragon", the one where he fought the guy and he kicked him when he turned around which put him in the hospital?
Well that fight never took places says his family and friends, that black guy in the movie never existed either haha, Bruce had two close friends at that point in his life, a Japanese guy who I can not remember the name of (very odd for japanese and chinese to be friends back then especially if they are martial artists) and later on he met Danny Inosato. The chinese council was not happy about outsiders being taught and requested he stop and was shunned by the community of Grant Street and the surrounding areas in San Fran but there was no death match where he was injured. If you read about his life you will find out that Bruce failed to warm up properly and caused all that damage while weight lifting at his apartment but of course that did not seem as cool as him being attacked like he was in the movie. Likewise after the exhibition at the tournement he did not fight anyone after the 60 second match as I have come across. If you read in the beginning of Dragon you will see they say that the movie was dramatized for entertainment purpose, from that movie they had a lot of "documentaries" which used it as a referance but most of that info was fictitious.
