Главная Содержание

В течение многих лет, I could not find any account of Bernarr MacFadden’s exploits as a professional wrestler in St. Луис. While research the beginnings of what would become Tom Packs’ Улица. Продвижение борьбы Луи в 1921 и 1922, I stumbled across an article that listed B.A. McFadden’s match with Max Luttbeg as one of the best matches held in St. Луис.

В 1893 и 1894, MacFadden was Barney McFadden, skilled lightweight Greco-Roman professional wrestler. Only 25-years-old, McFadden already contemplated retirement to enter the publishing business.

In January 1894, McFadden wrestled Luttbeg in his final professional wrestling match. We discuss the controversial match in this episode.

Lewis trained Sonnenberg for the ring.
