“کشاورز” برنز چارلز گرین را نگه می دارد

در پست اخیر, I wrote about Charles Green’s unsuccessful attempt to defeat Evan “<طول bbox_x = "976" bbox_y = "1956" bbox_w = "52" bbox_h = "19" fsize = "13" fweight = "3" قرمز = "255" سبز = "255" آبی = "255" آلفا = "” لوئیس به 1889. یک سال بعد, گرین با یکی دیگر از اسطوره های کشتی آمریکا موفقیت بیشتری کسب کرد, ادم گول خور “کشاورز” Burns.

برنز که به زودی 29 ساله می شود یک کشتی گیر عالی بود اما هنوز در سطح ایوان لوئیس نبود.. <طول bbox_x = "543" bbox_y = "1494" bbox_w = "56" bbox_h = "20" fsize = "14" fweight = "3" قرمز = "255" سبز = "255" آبی = "255" آلفا = ", او باید در صدر قرار می گرفت 10 of American wrestlers at the time.

Burns, the current Iowa champion, met Green, billed as the English Champion, on January 10, 1890 at Turner Hall in Rock Island, Illinois. The match was considered a handicap match as Green had to throw Burns 5 times in one hour or forfeit $100.00, almost $3,000 به 2021 دلار.

The bout was contested under “English rules”. Catch-as-catch-can was widely used throughout the United States, so I’m not sure what the rules for this bout were. Green showed his dominance early on.

Green secured the first fall in 12 <طول bbox_x = "405" bbox_y = "1557" bbox_w = "50" bbox_h = "20" fsize = "14" fweight = "3" قرمز = "255" سبز = "255" آبی = "255" آلفا = ". It took him a little longer to throw Burns for the second fall as he needed 16 minutes to secure it. Green threw Burns the third time in 11 <طول bbox_x = "405" bbox_y = "1557" bbox_w = "50" bbox_h = "20" fsize = "14" fweight = "3" قرمز = "255" سبز = "255" آبی = "255" آلفا = ", 30 ثانیه. While Burns had no offense in this bout, his defensive wrestling was good enough to secure his survival.

Since most modern matches are one fall exhibitions, readers may not be aware of the intermissions or rest periods in multi-fall matches. In 2-out-of-3-fall matches, a break of 5 minutes to 15 minutes was common. Sometimes the wrestlers left the ring for the intermission. Other times, they remained in the ring sitting on stools or standing in the corner.

برای این مسابقه, the men remained in the ring but the 5-minute intermission counted towards the 1-hour time limit. With the first three falls and three intermissions, Charles Green had one minute to secure a fourth fall. Even if he was able to secure the fall within the minute, Green would run out of time with the fourth intermission.

Green conceded the match to Burns. Green told the newspaper writers gathered around the ring that he underestimated Burns. He rated Burns one of the most talented wrestlers he wrestled in America.

Green proved he was one of the top 3 یا 4 competitors wrestling in the United States at the time. Other than Evan “<طول bbox_x = "976" bbox_y = "1956" bbox_w = "52" bbox_h = "19" fsize = "13" fweight = "3" قرمز = "255" سبز = "255" آبی = "255" آلفا = "” لوئیس, Green may have been an even match for any other wrestler competing in America at the time.
