Gotch, 谁是谁的傻瓜, decided to take some of the starch out of his challengers by matching them up against each other. Gotch告诉他们,他将采取三个男人之间的胜者. 与Gotch的计划的一个问题出现. 无论Hackenschmidt和Zbyszko拒绝搏斗Mahmout.

所有这三个男人开始自己的职业生涯在英国. Mahmout是欧洲的Gotch, 强大的摔跤手谁也没必要骗赢. Yet like Gotch, Mahmout fouled his opponents, when the opportunity arose.

Hackenschmidt, who defeated “可怕的土耳其人” when he was champion, refused to wrestle Mahmout even if it meant forgoing a title shot. Hackenschmidt might have still been smarting from Gotch’s rough tactics in their first match.

Zbyszko also refused to match up with Mahmout. He welcomed the challenge of “俄罗斯狮”, so the Russian former world champion met the Polish Greco-Roman wrestling champion.

While Zbyszko possessed a sterling reputation, Hackenschmidt previously held the world championship. Whether “劈” bowed to pressure or was overly confident about his ability to handle Zbyszko, Hackenschmidt agreed to throw Zbyszko twice in 90 分钟.

Physically, the men matched up well. Both men stood 5’09” tall with “劈” slightly smaller at 219 英镑. Zbyszko arrived in America in 1909 在 260 英镑. 他 constant touring in 1910 把他的体重下降到 230 磅,但斯坦尼斯是首要条件.

该 34 岁的孩子在纽约会晤了一枪Gotch就行了. Zbyszko攻击Hackenschmidt从开盘. 虽然两人都大致相同的强度, Zbyszko拥有更多的灵活性. Zbyszko扔 “劈” 左右,但无法完成一个罚球.

问题, 当然, 被Hackenschmidt同意扔Zbyszko两刀 90 分钟. Hackenschmidt没有抛出Zbyszko一次被宣布为失败者,尽管这场比赛实际上是一场平局. 在比赛结束, Zbyszko是在地面上工作Hackenschmidt过.

前 1911 过期, Gotch战斗双方Zbyszko和Hackenschmidt. Gotch两连胜瀑布击败Zbyszko. 最先倒下的是一个有争议的6秒引脚通过Gotch完成解决Zbyszko断手抖动.

九月 1911, Hackenschmidt收到了他的复赛. 一个坏的膝盖阻碍和风格面对他总是具有挑战性的发现, “劈” 再次输给了巨大Gotch.

1911 将Hackenschmidt的运行结束,他的Gotch战斗结束后退役. Zbyszko会搏斗再过二十年,包括 赢得世界摔跤锦标赛 1926 在最后的合法摔跤比赛中的一个.
