Evan Lewis strangles Tom Cannon

Ar Lúnasa 26, 1886, Evan “Strangler” Lewis bhuail an Wrestling Breataine Champion Tom Cannon i Cincinnati, Ohio. Le linn na ré dlisteanach wrestling, wrestlers eile eagla an Lewis cumhachtach mar gheall ar a stranglehold.

Lewis fostaithe strangle artaireach carotid a dtugtar an choke naked cúil i Judo. At least that was what I originally thought and most historians have quoted. Modern professional wrestlers use a hold that looks similar, but is not legitimate, called the sleeper hold. The arm around the neck is too loose to choke and the hand rests on top of the head not behind the head for proper choking.

I ndáiríre, Lewis used a guillotine choke similar to a front face lock but with the arms strangling the carotid artery. I discovered Lewis used a guillotine, when I found an illustration in a newspaper demonstrating his feared hold.

Some wrestlers, like Sorakichi Matsuda, refused to wrestle Lewis unless the stranglehold was banned. Bhí Lewis ina oilte “fraochÚn”, Tá wrestler gairmiúil specializing in aighneacht. Matsuda beagnach a bhí a chos briste Lewis, Bhí enraged a trí thoirmeasc a shealbhú peataí.

William Muldoon wrestled Lewis cúpla uair ach tar éis a tharraingt dlisteanach sheachaint rematch le Lewis. Na fir le chéile i gcluiche deiridh Muldoon mar wrestler gairmiúil. Seo cluiche seo caite chuma prearranged.

Nuair a bhuail Lewis Tom Cannon, Lewis was not in the mood to cooperate. An comórtas dlisteanach dar críoch tar éis ach dhá dtagann cé go raibh sé sceidealta mar triúr is fearr as gach cúigear dtagann mheaitseáil.

Cannon bheadh ​​éileamh an Teideal Domhanda i 1901 agus battled George Hackenschmidt ina príomh. Bhí Cannon ina wrestler ann agus ar ndóigh, buille Lewis don chéad titim.

Cannon kept pushing Lewis away every time that Lewis tried to secure his stranglehold. Le linn am an frustrachas, Lewis caillte tiúchan. Cannon chaith Lewis do titim eitilt ar 4 nóiméad agus 30 soicind. Na fir quieuit do 15 nóiméad a lean ar aghaidh go roil Lewis. “An Strangler” Ní bheadh ​​a dhiúltú sa dara titim.

Na fir ceangailte suas arís le Cannon i gcónaí ar an cosanta i gcoinne na hiarrachtaí leanúnacha na Lewis a grab stranglehold. Ag 9 nóiméad isteach sa dara titim, Lewis fuair ar deireadh an stranglehold.

The rear naked choke can bring unconsciousness in seconds but a guillotine choke usually takes longer unless it is really tight. It took Lewis 30 soicind a thit Cannon. Cannon thit ar an urlár le Lewis ar a chúl, ach bhí an réiteoir mall chun glaoch ar an titim i Lewis’ bhfabhar. Lewis ar siúl ar an shealbhú go dtí go dhearbhú an réiteoir air an buaiteoir.

Is é an t stranglehold ach amháin contúirteach má tá sé ar siúl ar feadh tamaill tar éis an comhraic caillte Chonaic. An réiteoir cinneadh mall ba chúis Lewis a chur i bhfeidhm an shealbhú níos faide ná mar is gá sé a. Bhí Cannon fós dizzy agus in ann leanúint ar aghaidh leis an cluiche.

Bronnadh Lewis an cluiche ag fhorghéilleadh. Cannon an dara Jimmy Faulkner ar fáil chun wrestle Lewis, if Lewis would not use the stranglehold. Lewis gáire ag Faulkner agus dúirt sé nach raibh sé ag daoine a buille ar bun le haghaidh saor in aisce, so Faulkner should raise the proper side purse to face Lewis.

Lewis ghlac an $200 sparán taobh agus ullmhaithe le haghaidh a bout seo chugainn. Bhí Cannon spitting suas fola agus d'fhan faint ar feadh thart ar uair an chloig tar éis an bout. Lucky for Cannon he did not make “An Strangler” dÚsachtach nó d'fhéadfadh sé a bheith níos measa.
