Modern Wrestling Harder Game Than Frank Gotch Knew
Atlanta, Ga. Dec. 5. Stanislaus Zbyszko, oldest grappler in the world, argues Frank Gotch would not likely be world champion today. He says wrestling has advanced with bigger, more powerful rivals and new holds, though some modern holds are not true wrestling holds and resemble torture.
