Very rare footage of World of Sport wrestling from 1971 featuring Kendo Nagasaki, Billy Howes and Pete Roberts. Unfortunately the picture is of very poor quality. Silent film with added soundtrack. Same clip as shown in May 2009 but soundtrack has been edited.
@BREMENMURRAY Billy Howes was european mid - heavyweight champion from 1962 - 1976 and held a disqualification verdict over Nagasaki on a TV show from Catterick Army Barracks in July 1971. I believe he was better than just mid card status.

Probably the only known clip of a Billy Howes match (2 June 1971) surviving now.Always a fine mid card wrestler

quality not good as outlained by the obliging rteubler ,who uploaded the film, but in its own way, probably worth more than all the other UK Wrestling uploaded here as it shows Nagasaki, in more or less his first TV appearance, without Gorgeous George, and hos mask comes of, but no clear sight of hos face unlike later Nagasaki , when the mask did come off,,,
