I just watched Antonio Inoki and Seiji Sakaguchi vs Karl Gotch and Lou Thesz from October 14th, 1973.
I hate to say it, but it was kind of dull 😅
I enjoy grappling, but 50 minutes with the most exciting moments being like 4 dropkicks in the entire match was a bit of a grind lol.
What period did matches become a bit more balanced between strikes and grappling?
1980’s? 1990’s? I want to watch old matches, but the 1970’s style isn’t much fun to watch, I think it’s quite a bit too old for me…
