On 8 March 1980, in Brussels, Belgium, Van Damme competed against his former teammate Patrick Teugels at the Forest National Arena on the undercard of the Dan Macaruso-Dominique Valera Professional Karate Association Light-Heavyweight World Championship bout. Prior to this match, Teugels had defeated Van Damme twice by decision, including a match for the Belgium Lightweight Championship. Van Damme had a 1977 victory over Teugels. Teugels was coming off an impressive showing at the World Association of Kickboxing Organizations World Championships four months earlier, and was favored by some to win this match. According to reports, and Patrick Teugels’ own interview (with photos), Teugels lost to Van Damme by TKO in the 1st round. Teugels was kicked in the nose and was unable to continue as a result. In a 2013 interview, Van Damme called this fight his most memorable match.
Van Damme was finally diagnosed with Rapid Cycling Bipolar Disorder in 1998, and he began to take sodium balproate—a mood stabilizing drug—to help him with his condition. He’s been very open about his disorder in interviews, and was expressive while playing himself in JCVD, where he exposed himself as a broken man.
Van Damme and Stallone ultimately patched things up, thanks to their mutual friend, a Ukranian oil and gas magnate. That paved the way for Van Damme to join the follow-up and finally do a fight scene with his hero.
Jean-Claude Van Damme, also known as JCVD, is a Belgian actor and retired martial artist who has a net worth of $40 million. He is best known for his series of popular martial arts action films from the late 1980s and 1990s.
