RIP King Kong Mosca

[Polishprince]

Mosca walked and he talked and he did exactly as he pleased.

He started out playing football with Notre Dame and in Canada, before he found his true calling in professional wrestling.

I remember him sending Pat Patterson to the hospital after clocking him with a water pitcher in WWWF with Patterson doing color commentary. As a result, the wrestling federation went to bottled water for their announcers.

Tremendous talent, no doubt about it.

Not at all, you were just confusing Mosca with another deceased, football player-wrestler, Ernie Ladd who is black.

His mother was a black lady.
