Jean-Claude Van Damme to fight Somluck Kamsing in K-1
by Natalia Baage on September 08, 2009

Actor Jean-Claude van Damme will fight Olympic gold-medalist boxer Somluck Kamsing in a K-1 muay thai match in March 2010.

This rumor was recently confirmed by Kamsing, who signed the contract for the fight on Sept. 4.  The bout will take place in Las Vegas and will consist of five two-minute rounds, said Kamsing.

Van Damme has requested to bar the use of elbows during the fight because he is an actor and does not want his face to get cut or bruised, Kamsing told Siamsport.

Kamsing is a Thai boxer who won the featherweight gold medal at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta.

Van Damme is a Hollywood action star who trained in martial arts before his acting career began.
