Cung Le has been successful so far with a San Shou style of striking that no one else in MMA has used before. Granted it hasn't been against top level competition but he's still looked impressive nevertheless.

It's sorta already been said, but JKD is really more of a philosophy than a fighting style. It's the idea that you should study lots of different aspects of fighting and use what works for you and discard what doesn't. A good JKD fighter is not going to fight like Bruce Lee, they are going to fight like themselves.

basically JKD is MMA

I believe Luke Cummo has studied/uses Jeet Kune Do in MMA. I remember seeing him fight on TUF finale and he had a very traditional karate stance. Seems to work well for him.

JKD cuts though the ceremony and unecessary forms. It get straigt to the point.

Also, the very first thing in Enter the Dragon, Bruce made a very young Samo Hung "tap". One of Bruce's most famous fans/stars Donnie Yen praises MMA like crazy. JKD never settles, it always evolves just like MMA.

Ina way, MMA = Jeet Kune Do

I can't see why more JKD guys dont enter MMA
