Wrestling Videos on the Net

Hello, guys. I love bear hugs. I've never been able to do a real fight to try applying a hug, but I love seeing it in photos and especially in videos. For a long time I looked for videos in which the two fighters hug each other and the two squeeze each other's body at the same time, not just one squeezes and the other suffers pain, and even better that the two men carry out the fight only with a hug bear. Last week, someone finally posted a link to the scene from an old Russian movie, where a hug like that happens. Unfortunately the fight is brief and they only do two hugs. I really wanted to see the fight go on for much longer, just with a bear hug, and for the victory to happen without any other blows. Unfortunately that doesn't happen in the video, but it already sets up one of the best videos I've ever seen. I also really wanted to know what the actors talk about before and during the fight, so I asked a Russian man here on the site to translate the dialogue that takes place for me. Thus, watching this video knowing what the two talk about, becomes much more exciting. That's why I wanted to share it with you. Below is the link to the video and the translation of the dialogue.

The bottom line is that this is a son and a father, but they don't know about it and they have to come together in a duel. At the beginning, the son tells his father - what will you fight with if you don't have a weapon? The father answers - if there are no weapons, then the men hug each other and break each other's back. Then the struggle begins. The son says - what, am I too strong for you, knight? The father replies - you are strong, youngster. The son says - you are already weak. Then the father says to himself - help me, the creator, to overcome my feeling. What got into my heart? Even though we are enemies, I am afraid of hurting him in battle. What is it with me - madness, delirium? I have a tenderness for the youngster that is peculiar only to the father. This tenderness has sapped all my strength. Creator, give me back my rage - war is war. Then the father begins to lose, grabs the knife that was on his son's belt, and kills him with this knife. At the end of the scene, the father says - war is war, the rest does not count. Everything is good that leads to victory.

WOW! That was great! Thank you for posting this. I also love bear hug fights not one sided, but both men toe to toe locking chest and squeezing each other flexing their chest muscles, trying to outmuscle his opponent until one man is bent so far back he has no choice but to submit. I remember an episode of Bonanza when I was a kid when Hoss and another man fought in a bar as I recall and they locked up in a bear hug and fought it out. I hope we get some more posts of good bear hug fights.

Thank you very much for contributing this very good comment. Is that fight you said with Hoss from a movie?

Here you are that Bonanza bearhug fight scene

Thanks! LOL It's funny as a kid I thought that bear hug went on a whole lot longer. In my memory the whole fight was a bear hug fight. Funny what we remember and what we don't; all those punches thrown and I didn't remember a single one of them.
