Shang-Chi is Marvel's version of Bruce Lee amped up to 11!
They should make him THE BEST hand to hand combatant of the Marvel U.

Despite Caps serum..despite the skill of Black Panther & training of Daredevil..despite the history of Iron Fist..Shang-Chi should be viewed as the best pure fighter of any Marvel character.

It would be cool to give a character who is non-white that status & honor the memory of Bruce Lee & his influence.
Make it happen Marvel.
