I barely remember watching that. I know it starred OJ and Delta Burke. I somehow conflated it with a whole bunch of football movies that showed up like Fast Times at Ridgemont, Best of Times and Monday Night Football.

He was also in an early episode of The X-Files. S01E04.

Obviously other things as well. This just popped into my head.

Yeah it's a bummer. That movie was a big part of my childhood. It got me into martial arts and boxing. He nailed that role and seemed like a really down to earth guy. Its sad to know he's gone.

Love the flash back scene. The actor who played young Van Damme has some insanely funny line readings

“Yore not gunna call de cawps?”

This sucks.

I thought I read somewhere not too long ago that he was battling cancer. Another legend gone.

Daylight-Silence@reddit

RIP. I have a soliloquy I sometimes like to give when drunk in which I argue that Bloodsport is one of the most important and influential movies of all time. Fighting video games and the UFC both owe a ton to that movie (which, if you are unaware, despite being billed as a true story, was sold as such based on the ramblings of a deranged compulsive liar).

Revenge of the Nerds doesn't hold up, unfortunately, but it wasn't his fault

russbii@reddit

Woof, Revenge of the Nerds and Funky Cold Medina are veeeeery eye opening about how unimportant consent was during those days.

[-]

Panek52@reddit

Yes! 100 percent this.

Love Bloodsport, must have watched it 20x in college. Buddy of mine went to the hospital and got stitches in his head trying to recreate one of the fights

Not the best times for the Nerds. Poindexter got in trouble with child abuse but who knows if those charges are real or not?
