Jean Claude Van Damme doing martial arts.

I wont lie. His kicking game is very impressive.

IMO he wouldn't be able to do any of that and perform well in a real fight

 

[Sano]

Van Damme was a good looking guy in his youth, can't lie.

Spoiler

No... it's not here

That last clip was hilariously bad. JCVD toying with these LARPers. I love how he easily head kicks the 2nd dude and says "next".

He sure would. As long as he got a sense of distanse and timing. And have done playfull sparring.

In fact he did some kickboxing style during the 80s. But light and full contact. So he got "some" skills. Not sure how high. But it dont really matter.

How do you define "a real fight"?
JCVD was 18-1 in kickboxing - that's real enough for me.

If you're interested he's actually uploading home workouts to his YouTube page, I've only skimmed them and they don't seem to be martial arts related but still good!

I watched some of it. Looked like mostly static strenght, balance, and stretching.

Good shit for sure. And important for most.

But no kicking techniques.

 

[Vil7]

He seems like a really decent guy unlike that awful piece of shit Seagal.

Prove it.

define 'real fight'

what was fake about it exactly?

 

[JohnPJones]

The kickboxing was fake

i think he's making that claim because it was mostly the kind of kickboxing that was still primarily dominated by karateka rather than straight up kickboxers, and didn't use the big puffy gloves...

They were pretending
