@colesioe this is why FLair title reign means so much because it was portray realistic. he loses the title athletically in a long match, not in 10 minutes, 30 + minutes.

@blacksdocrack Yes, if one wrestler does not win two decisive falls within the 60-minute time limit, then the entire match is considered a draw and the champion retains.

flair would lose the title 2 days later to harley race in st. louis

great match, thanks for the upload. awesome quality too! I much prefer this match to the 30 min one that is also on youtube. although, like in that one I don't really get the finish here. if Jumbo got the first fall and the second fall was a time limit draw. shouldn't that make Jumbo champ cos he has a fall over flair? or is the entire match just thrown out if the two out of three falls are not decided within the match time limit?

ty for the upload
At the end of the match, among the young seconds attending to Tsuruta is Toshiaki Kawada. Guys like Kawada must have leanred so much just by going out each night and watching the older workers. I don't know if this was Baba's idea originally, but it was a great one.
