How did Lee Kemp beat Gable back in the seventies? Gable hurt?

At the time of the match, Gable was already coaching at Iowa. He was entered in the NI open with Yagla wrestling at 150. Gable went up a weight or 2 to wrestle Kemp at 158 instead of wrestling his pupil. He was not prepared to wrestle and there were some questionable calls. Obviously Kemp was a great wrestler which did not hurt. Score ended up 7-6 with a fake news TD for Kemp.

What about Larry Owings? That fake too?

Now if you want to watch something really impressive, go to YouTube and watch what Wade Schalles does with Kemp.
