Londres Wrestles Coleman e Shikina

I recently discovered a three minute clip on YouTube, que incluiu dois de Jim Londons’ jogos da década de 1930. na primeira partida, Londos luta contra Abe Coleman. na segunda partida, Londos luta uma luta de estilos mistos com Oki Shikina, who was trained by Taro Miyake, o faixa preta de judô e lutador profissional.

Londos was the biggest box office star in professional wrestling history. While Londos was not in the same league as Ed “Strangler” Lewis, Joe Stecher or John “O Nebraska Tigerman” Areia, Londos did know “hooking”, the insider term for submission wrestling.

Abe Coleman achieved fame as “the Hebrew Hercules.” While Coleman stood only 5’03”, he weighed over 200 libras. Coleman also possessed a professional bodybuilder’s physique without the use of steroids. When Coleman died in 2007 at 101-years-old, he was the oldest living former professional wrestler.

Oki Shikina was born Morio Shikina in Okinawa. Shikina debuted in the early 1930s. Shikina wrestled until 1955, when he was 51-years-old.

Watch the match clips and let me know what you think of it.
