    what do you know about this guy
    A man has only one death. That death may be as weighty as Mt. Tai, or it may be as light as a goose feather. It all depends upon the way he uses it....

    He was a one "HIT" wonder.
    Don't think about being good in the next year or five years...think about being good in the next 50 years. Learn to love the process of being good, not the anticipation of being good.

    I remember an article back in '97 saying that Dux was sueing Van Damme over "The Quest" because it was supposed to be a joint venture or something like that. I dont remember the details, but lemme look....

    well anyway, it mentions this and more in wikipedia (which is your friend).

    Pity, really, because in theory Bloodsport could have been a good flick. Even if it was made up out of whole cloth, and bears no resemblance to real events or real characters alive or dead...

    And The Quest, which was basically a remake, was even worse when it could have been so much better. Roger Moore should commit seppuku for being involved.
