He and Kevin both I think tried out for the role. Kevin himself told me this via twitter DM.

Kerry was indeed in the running for the role of Ivan Drago.

Kerry was never great on the mic. I can only imagine him as an actor.

He had a bit of a marble mouth.

I can just imagine the nightmare of working on the film with Kerry. They would have done take after take after take to get it right.
