Stallone vs Van Damme in 1993


Would have given me a heart attack from excitment. But here it's just....kind of cool. I love this movie but man what could have been.

Rocky/Bloodsport crossover

Rocky Balboa Vs Frank Dux

even today i think van damme beats stallone. after all he knows karate and stallone got gym muscles so i think this match will be over very soon..
plus stallone is soon reaching 70 and van damme is about 55

In 93 it would've been awesome for them to go toe to toe, but you can bet your life, Stallone would've made his character win.
In Expendables 2, the fight scene was wasted, Sly beats him easily. VD gets 2 good kicks in, but the rest is all Sly.

Yeah and that's exactly why it could never happen in 93. Van Damme was in the prime of his career and Stallone was a big name again coming off Cliffhanger and Demolition Man. Neither one would have done the movie if they couldn't win the final fight.

Van Dammes was in the prime of his career in early '90 but he had a fantastic physical shape in No Retreat, No Surrender
