I don't think Sifu Lee had a problem with karate itself, I think he had a problem with the "organized despair" of how TMA's were being taught at the time. It had become too removed from combat ("doing something about fighting" vs. "fighting") Although, I'm not certain how well Sifu Lee understood "karate" (in air quotes

I remember a Bruce Lee interview. The reason Bruce Lee didn't compete is because he said there were too many rules. Kickboxing for example only allows striking. A lot of karate tournaments also were only points based. If I had to guess, I believe the early UFC competitions or Vale Tudo (had he known about it) would be to Bruce Lee's liking.
