[nondry1]

TAK KURWA TRZYMAĆ POLACY!!

[woowoowoo214]

@nondry1 ja tez mieszkam w uk i tez za niedlugo zaczynam to samo

[Danrano1]

HOW COULD ANYONE DISLIKE THIS... A NOOB!

[Danrano1]

HE SHOULD OF BEEN A COMEDIAN!

[nlavs]

ABSOLUTE LEGEND

[Stereolabdream]

I love the announcer putting on his "posh" voice...and the way that Krakow poland was still considered part of the "exotic east" at this time....hence the fancy robe and bald head...lol

Never saw a Kellett match that didn't start with him saying..."No...no no...no"...hehehehehe

[StFidjnr]

this is when uk comedy in sport started

[Planetwatts]

This is hilarity at it's finest. My dad always told me about Les Kellett and I feel so gratified now that I have been able to watch some of the matches that he was in.

[routemaster305]

W.ho was the referee in this contest? I think it is Bernard Murray {a wrestler of the Les Kellet mould, who also larked about in the ring}. Anyone confirm this?

[helltopay1]

Les K was by all accounts as hard as nails

[cpnstav]

Met les Kellet an exceptional wrestler .Thats when wrestling was wrestling as well as entertainement

Paul Chapman! You're gay! :P

Jokes.

[AlexDCl]

Wow, for Kellet to still have been wrestling with the best of them at his age, he must have been hard.

[jr976evil]

@Lester1Beck nope, he died in 2002, aged 86

[Rikkyhardo]

Beats WWE ... no sprung canvas or 20 seconds rest while pretending to be hurt

[webbhead92]

FHM did an article on Les once but they had to base it all on hearsay because he was a recluse who didnt show up for the interview.

[BILLYnKAREN]

Wow, i'm 10 year old again and watching this with me dad, love Les. thanks for posting

[SUEBRDSHW]

saw these two many times, johnny czeslaw such a gent always willing to chat

[Richiepookinshoo]

THIS is wrestling. The ability to make a crowd react without some stupid gimmick.

[tigerboy1966]

Kellett was 57 years old here. Great showman. Apparently, he was, out of the ring, the hardest, nastiest bastard in the business.

[xxrobfalconxx]

@tigerboy1966 Yep, thats the word on him. All the wrestlers said that one of the hardest things in their profession, was having to wrestle against kellet when he had had a bad day. Aparently he could hold his hands on hot radiators for a lenghty time. I never realised he was in his 50's during the 70's.

[tigerboy1966]

@xxrobfalconxx he was born in 1915 and didn't even make it to the big shows till he was well into his 40s. There's hope fo us all!

[supernffc]

Happy memories of Saturday afternoons growing up watching these guys!

[za22by]

Les was one of the best and a lot of people forget because of jokey wrestling style just what a skilled wrestler he was and one of the toughest men in the wrestling business at that time. He was also a great nurture of new talent and really looked for a lot of young wrestlers when a lot of the more experienced wrestlers around at the time were out to destroy the new talent coming through. Thank you Les.

[BigAlDevonBoy]

its a shame that British wrestling will never see such great comedy bouts like this again,

[AlexDCl]

A great Yorkshireman.

[dutchie44]
