Makes you realise just how big Andre the Giant was.
He is similar dimensions to Valuev. Makes Walcott look
small.
Its ashame that they couldnt even have a real boxing match
in the WWF back then. Would have been more entertaining to
all than just another worked match under different guise.

The 70s were a very interesting time.
Im glad I was around to experience the great cultural milestones such as Monssoon vs Andre.
Seriously, it was a period in history that was turbulent but also at times hilarious.
Intentionally or not.

- Speaking of which, Andre got POed in the ring on occasion and could really let loose.
Check out these two videos and tell me who is doing better, Ali against the little guy, or Wepner against the big guy:
