Anyone who is containing a large capacity of muscle-mass will always be slower. Muscle adds weight. Although there is power behind it, powerful hits are useless unless the impact occurs.
Bruce Lee has muscle, but it was well defined. The guy look liked he was carved from wood. And while being a lighter weight and smaller frame, he also had greater speed and incredible flexibility.
As for fighting.
Lee's wu shu consisted mostly of elements of Wing Chun, with elements of Western Boxing and Fencing, and named it Jun Fan Gung Fu. He expanded this style over time, including elements from Muay Thai, Indo-Malay Silat, Panantukan, Sikaran, Bando, Catch Wrestling, Karate, Judo, Jujitsu, Aikido, and other arts. It would only be much later that he would come to describe his style as Jeet Kune Do.
All Tyson knows is punching hard and ear biting in boxers.
