Londra vs. Nagurski içinde 1938

Kasım 18, 1938, eski dünya güreş şampiyonu Jim Londos, şu anki dünya şampiyonu Bronko Nagurski ile güreşti., Chicago Bears'ın büyük eski futbolcusu. Erkekler Philadelphia'da güreşti, Nagurski'nin dünya güreş şampiyonası versiyonu için Pennsylvania. You can view the 14-minute match in its entirety on YouTube.

Maçı ilk izlediğimde, several things stood out. Ilk, 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 karşı 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 EdStrangler” Demir kama, 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.
