Mizajou

I have finished writing Origins of a Legend: The Making of Ed “Strangler” Lewis. After editing, it should be released in late January/early February 2024.

We briefly discuss Vince Russo’s ideas for a women’s wrestling organization. We try to figure out the market for this material. We also suggest a therapist is probably warranted.

Main Content

Early mixed martial arts (Mma) contests were style versus style. Nan sa a Episode, we discuss a boxer versus wrestler bout between “Ap batay” Levinsky and Ray Steele.

I also discuss Sam McVey versus Tano Matsuda in a boxing versus jiu-jitsu match. We finish the discussion with Ad Santel versus Taro Miyake in a wrestling versus jiu-jitsu match.

Review

We look at one of the few wrestler versus boxer matches on video. “Judo” Gene LeBell took on Milo Savage nan 1963.
