Mahmout가 Straight Falls에서 Jenkins를 이겼습니다.
미국의 추수감사절에, Thursday, 11월 26, 1908, Yussouff Mahmout는 뉴욕 매디슨 스퀘어 가든에서 전 미국 헤비급 레슬링 챔피언인 Tom Jenkins와 씨름했습니다.. Mahmout는 최근 World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship에서 Frank Gotch와 씨름하기 위해 미국으로 갔습니다..
마무트가 젠킨스를 이긴다면, Mahmout는 Gotch에 대한 진정한 도전자가 될 것입니다.. Jenkins was the only wrestler to defeat Gotch more than one time in their historic series of matches.

Jenkin at his peak wrestled at about 196 파운드. Jenkins weighed 220 pounds for this match. Mahmout weighed 199 파운드.
The contest started slowly as Mahmout and Jenkins tugged on each other for seven minutes without an advantage. Mahmout finally threw Jenkins to the mat. Jenkins laid on his stomach and did not allow Mahmout to turn him on the mat. Jenkins stood back to his feet.
Mahmout tried for a stranglehold. The referee warned Mahmout that Mahmout could not use the illegal hold.

At around the twenty minutes, Jenkins struck Mahmout twice with a palm strike. The referee warned Jenkins about striking Mahmout.
Around the thirty-minute mark, Mahmout took Jenkins to the mat with a crotch hold. Mahmout could not pin Jenkins with the crotch hold, so Mahmout switched to a three-quarters Nelson. Mahmout pinned Jenkins at thirty-two minutes, forty seconds of the first fall.
After a fifteen-minute intermission, Mahmout secured a waist hold and slammed Jenkins face first to the mat. Jenkins tried to stand back up, but Mahmout slammed Jenkins heavily with a body hold.
After trying to turn Jenkins, Mahmout switched to a hammerlock and turned Jenkins to his back. Realizing his precarious position, Jenkins tried to bridge to prevent the pin.
Despite Jenkins’ bridge, Mahmout pressed his body into Jenkins chest eventually pinning Jenkins at seven minutes, thirty seconds of the second fall. Mahmout won the match in two straight falls.
Even though Jenkins was not the champion wrestler of old, Mahmout’s dominant performance earned Mahmout the title shot with Frank Gotch. It was yet to be seen if Mahmout could defeat the dominant world champion.
