A technique in which one strikes an opponent with a punch from a literal (though, of course, there's always variation in length) one-inch windup. Power comes from a martial art concept, Fa Jing, commonly translated along the lines of "explosive power," to deliver backbreaking force as efficiently as possible.
Commonly believed to originate in Wing Chun kung fu, although similar techniques were and are used throughout southern China. Made popular in the west due to a display at Long Beach by the legendary Bruce Lee, who borrowed elements of said Wing Chun from his training in adolescence to create his own Jeet Kune Do.
For a particularly visual homage and/or example to the One Inch Punch, see Bruce Lee knockoff Fei Long's second Ultra combo in Super Street Fighter IV.
An explosive short range punch, made famous by the late Bruce Lee. Seemingly magical to the unlearned, it is actually the result of a perfect synchronisation of all the muscles used in a regular punch (shortened down to about 1 inch). Requires extremely high skill to be effective.

A devastating and extremely powerful strike from the fist that emanates from Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do. The fist strikes the target from only one inch away yet the punch can transfer an incredible force. See also JKD
I gave him a one inch punch and sent his ass flying

In Jeet Kune Do one has four fighting distances: Kicking range, punching range, trapping range and grappling range. Very few Martial Arts have these many. Usually they only have 2 or 3 ranges. The one inch punch is used in the trapping range. In trapping range you are too close for a kick and too close for a western boxing punch. It's short and very explosive and it doesn't have to be "loaded" to make damage. One needs to train very hard to get it right. I have been training Jeet kune do for about four years now and I say its about speed and timing.

The One Inch Punch, made famous by possibly the best martial artists in the world. Bruce Lee had speed so fast you could feel the pain but not see the fist, his power was ASTOUNDING! For your information, "Wing Chun guy" he was good at the one inch punch. I know he never learned it properly but he could beat the hell out of you! Plus Bruce Lee knew it was a move which could possibly kill you. But the reason he "pushed" was because he would kill him if he did and plus it was added that way for effect on the on lookers! So shut up "wanna" be Wing Chun Guy. And another thing he did not steal the one inch punch he borrowed as it is not a system it is a concept. So keep your trap closed!

Much like the one inch punch by Bruce Lee amazes people, as an adjective it means a person with a small penis who is amazing with it despite his size
Susan: You are a one inch punch.
Joe: What?!
Susan: Despite your size you are amazng in bed.
Joe: It's not about the size of the boat but the flow of the motions
Ignore the Bruce Lee fanboy JediAndi. He's only correct about one thing: the one inch punch is a punch from 1 inch away, and it's devastating.
Bruce Lee did NOT invent it. He stole it from Wing Chun, the basis of his Jeet Kune Do (again, not a martial art, a martial PHILOSOPHY). He also never learned it properly. His version sent the opponent back a few feet. Bruce Lee only knew that way. The REAL Wing Chun version (I take Wing Chun, by the way), cracks the opponent's sternum in half, and they don't fly back, they usually fall down right on the spot, and unless proper medical attention is seeked, they will die a slow, painful death.
Haha, Bruce Lee fanboys never cease to amuse me. Silly wordJeet Kune Do/word admirers.
Guy 1: WHOA DUDE DID YOU SEE BRUCE LEE DO THAT 1 INCH PUNCH!!111!! HE SENT THE GUY FLYING!
Guy 2: Shut the hell up, fanboy. The real 1 inch punch makes the recipient's sternum crack in half and doesn't send them flying. And Jeet Kune Do is not a martial art, it's a martial philosophy.
