Frankly, I don't know much about style of Bruce Lee but an ancient savate was nothing short of a street fighting. I think that a good kick by leg in heavy footwear is enough effective.

Savate takes its name from the French for "old boot" (heavy footwear that used to be worn during fights). The modern formalized form is mainly an amalgam of French street fighting techniques from the beginning of the 19th century.
