looks and moves a lot like him.
there was a thread about Jack Johnson's wrestling career in another thread.
I will try and find it to bump it up.

It's really not the first MMA fight on any level. McVea did something similar not long before, there were Rough and Tumble fights in America long before that, and way way before you had the ancient sport of pankration

Yes, that is Johnson.

The crouched stance certainly looks like Johnson.
