I would of thought the Chan Man would be on the list. He's not my favourite, but hes up there with the greats.

When it comes to martial arts with a hint of comedy, he's the guy for the job.
 
You forgot to mention one guy who is famous http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0087593/bio billy blanks 7th degree black belt in karate/ tae kwondo and 4th degree black belt in kung fu. No to forget that he was 7 times world karate champion and has over 300 victories and won 36 gold medals.
 
How can you forget to include Chuck Norris? He's really going to get you now!! Remember, there are no handicapped people, only people that pissed off Chuck Norris.
 
Have to go with Bruce Lee. he paved the way so that EVERYONE could have the opportunity to learn and I would say much if not most of the popularity behind martial arts can be attributed to him.
As for who is the hardest, probably Bruce again. He would have no set style to defend against and probably could adapt to counter you best!
 
bruse lee of course, most of today's film guys are all fakes, they can move like a martial arts champion, but can they really hold up in a real fight? i think not...bruce lee on the other hand is just fucking amazing

It's good to be the king...
Bruce Lee.
 
hes been around longer than most even know.

from this list, ill pick mr. bruce lee. he had such an open mind and shared the secret practices of ancient chinese martial arts even though he was pressured not to.

1979/1980. the cannonball run. his first american movie. a good one too.
 
Isnt a little out of place to use the expression "hard man" and "martial arts" in the same sentence? martial arts is after all an artform that requires, skill, speed and grace. Think of it as david and goliath, Steven Segal by all standards is a large man but he might easily be outclassed by a smaller adversary like Jackie Chan.Though I dont really consider Steve a martial artist since he never really does more in his movies that simply counter his opponents moves. When I think martial arts I think the likes of jet li, bruce lee and yes my biasedly favourite Jackie.
