NATURE BOY BUDDY ROGERS (NWA WORLD CHAMPION)
vs.
SHOHEI “GIANT” BABA (CHALLENGER)
MARCH 9, 1962 – CHICAGO – INTERNATIONAL AMPHITHEATRE
Buddy and Baba packed the house for this NWA World Heavyweight Championship match which was won by the champ.
Baba was heavier and more solidly built here than when he got older and wrestled Sammartino years later. By the time he wrestled Sammartino he looked like a skinny “praying mantis.”
