Van Damme fights?

Jean-Claude Van Damme made an impression playing himself in the acclaimed JCVD, but he also wants to make a few more impressions using his fists and feet, playing himself in the ring.

The action actor plans to put his real-life karate and kickboxing skills to the test for his first fight in a decade. Van Damme is in training for a throwdown next summer against Thai fighter Somluck Kamsing, an Olympic boxing gold-medalist and muay thai champion.

Apparently Van Damme will also be filming the training of both himself and his opponent, as well as their eventual match, for a future documentary.

Will it be a ROCKY BALBOA moment for the Muscles from Brussels? And how will Bolo Yeung fit in?

Thanks to ‘Robby’ for the heads up!
