Meyers Is Suspended For Year
Ex-Middleweight Mat Champion Set Down for Disgraceful Conduct
Chicago, July 23 (AP) - Johnny Meyers, former middleweight wrestling champion, today was suspended for one year and fined 66 2-3 per cent of his purse by the Illinois State Athletic Commission for what it termed his "disgraceful and unbecoming conduct" in his match with Karl Pojello last week. Pojello won the match which ended in a fist fight with Meyers taking the leading part.
PS: Ein Wrestler wird fuer ein Jahr suspendiert weil er seine Faeuste einsetzte. Das muesste man mal heute einigen Refs sagen, die 10 mal pro Match einen 4 Count machen, und den Wrestler jedesmal nur verwarnen. ;)
