Main Content

The third combat sports book I wrote is still one of the reader’s favorites, Evan “The Strangler” Lewis: The Most Feared Wrestler of the 19th Century. Lewis was not only a skilled hooker but had a vicious, mean streak. Lewis wrestled primarily contests but even hurt wrestlers in worked matches when the other wrestler made Lewis mad. Lewis’ conduct in three matches clearly show his temperament and outlook.

Lewis’ two matches with Sorakichi Matsada cement him as a villain in the mind of wrestling fans.

Lewis’ match with Dennis Gallagher shows how vicious Lewis could become.

To end the program, I discuss the first card I attended in St. Louis on Friday, Urtarrila 25, 1980.
