This is crazy. Totally crazy. And we know what you think: this can’t happen. This’s bullsh*t. And surely it will not happen. But if it happens…oh my God! Jean-Claude Van Damme, the actor of Bloodsport, Kickboxer, Double Impact and lately The Expendables 2, could return to fight for real in December 2012 against Somrak Kamsing, former boxing Olympic gold-medalist and muay thai fighter (also known as Somluck Kamsing).
There was a lot of talking about this match, starting from 2010, but this time could be the right time. Obviously there is nothing official, but there are 2 interviews (see the videos) where JCVD talks about his will
