لندن در مقابل. ناگورسکی در 1938

در تاریخ نوامبر 18, 1938, جیم لوندوس قهرمان سابق کشتی جهان با برونکو ناگورسکی قهرمان فعلی جهان کشتی گرفت, بازیکن بزرگ سابق فوتبال شیکاگو بیرز. مردان در فیلادلفیا کشتی گرفتند, پنسیلوانیا برای نسخه ناگورسکی از مسابقات قهرمانی کشتی جهان. You can view the 14-minute match in its entirety on YouTube.

وقتی برای اولین بار مسابقه را دیدم, several things stood out. اول, a wrestler needed to hold his opponents shoulders to the mat for three seconds to win the match. In some of the early surviving films from the 1930 به 1934, a wrestler only need to touch both his opponents shoulders to the mat to win like Londos does in the match above.

While Bronko Nagurski did not know much legitimate wrestling, Tony Stecher taught him enough wrestling to have a credible match with Londos, a shooter and hooker although Londos was not on the level of Ed “<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, Joe Stecher or John Pesek.

The match also disproves that matches wrestled before the past twenty years are slow and boring. Nagurski and Londos wrestled a fast-paced match for the entire fourteen minute match. Watch the match and judge for yourself.
