About the Cannes incident;
I saw an inteview with Dolph a couple of years after the fact (about 1995) in wich they asked about that. The interviewer asked what it had all been about and Dolph really didn´t want to give too much of a straight answer and just went:
"Oh, that! Well, you know, that was just a.. little thing.. uh..."
and the interviewer went:
"A little publicity stunt?"
and Dolph, kind of reluctantly, went:
"Uh.. well.. yeah...".
Then the interviewer said:
"So would you have taken him?"
and Dolph said:
"Of course! I´m a viking, aren´t I?!"
And that last part is important to remember. Van Damme is allright (for a girl) but Dolph Lundgren is fckng Dolph fckng Lundgren (fckng)!
Anyway,
I beleive I have heard him make references to the incident as an "Ali vs. Frazier moment". And those "moments" were stunts to draw attention to the fights.
