Van Damme.
Block of concrete can act better than Seagal...You see, there's this thing called "aggro". It's a very complicated, very technical roleplaying expression.
Loosely translated, it means "the priest dies".

Moved to C/TV/M/B and changed the tittle for better understanding.

Van Damme takes it hands down: Universal soldier, Time cop, sudden death, hard target, street fighter, kick boxer, bloodsport; screw Segal.

Van Damme FTW.
Seagull is okay, but I find him quite hard to really get behind, not sure why, but with JCVD I always want him to win, even when he's being a dick.
Also Universal Soldier is one of the greatest cheesy action movies EVERReading the A song of Ice and Fire series is like playing with an adorable puppy, then someone comes up out of nowhere and shoots the puppy, then punches you in the face

Van Damme hands down.
Segal had very entertaining flicks though.

Segal but only by a small margin, jean claude just likes to show off his arse in his movies too much.
I saw six men kicking and punching the mother-in-law. My neighbor said ‘Are you going to help?’ I said, ‘No, Six should be enough.

Both are pretty bad but I can actually get myself to watch a movie with JCVD, SS I change channel instantly.
"We are you. We are the madness that lurks within you all, begging to be free at every moment in your deepest animal mind. We are what you hide from in your beds every night. We are what you sedate into silence and paralysis when you go to the nocturnal haven where we cannot tread."

Easily Van Damme. Hell, he even proved he can actually act in the movie called JCVD.
The Tower: To some, it symbolizes failure, ruin and catastrophe.
To others, the Tower represents the paradigms constructed by the ego, the sum total of all schema that the mind constructs to understand the universe. The querent may be holding on to false ideas or pretenses; a new approach to thinking about the problem is needed. It may be time for the querent to re-examine belief structures, ideologies, and paradigms they hold to.

Van Damme. Never liked either all that much, but Van Damme had funner movies to watch, plus as other posters have said, slightly better acting. And streetfighter, come on.

Van Damme. I heard he could throw parties that made Charlie Sheen look like a choir boy.

I don't really like either to be honest. But if I had to choose one it would be JCVD. Segal has been a going joke in my family with the word Shit and it all still makes sense perhaps more sense. For example:
Out for Shit
Above the Shit
Marked for Shit
Hard to Shit
On Deadly Shit
Under Shit
Shit Down Below
Anyways you get the idea.

Neither one is very good as an actor but Segal is simply horrendous. He always has the same expression on his face no matter what the situation in the movie is. The expression is much like that of a severely constipated person trying to force out a turd.

Am I the only one here that likes Steven who has taken only 2-3 punches in 17 movies?
Nah, mostly I say that because I love Aikido.
If I had to choose, I would pick YURI BOYKA!
