Gasp! The horror of you people. Jackie Chan is one of the greatest martial artists of our time. He is a true martial artist too, not just a stunt man. He knows over a hundred different forms of Kung Fu, not to mention the ones he's created over the years, and he's resourceful. When he was the stuntman for Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon, he earned a name which translated into "to become the dragon", because people saw how good he was. Everyone said he'd be the next Bruce Lee, but for Jackie, he didn't want to be the next anything, he wanted to be the first Jackie Chan. Yeah, he's got personallity and humor, but damn, that guy can move, and take a hit too. So, after kicking the hell out of Jet and Chuckles, Jackie would turn his sights on Bruce Lee, who would promptly kick his ass. But that's mainly because Bruce was smart and watched Jackie waste all that energy on the other two.
And, Bruce Lee, Enter the Dragon was his best role; Jackie Chan, best martial arts performance in Drunken Master 2; Jet Li, is all show but he did alright in Kiss of the Dragon; Chuck Norris is still searching for talent to act or fight.
