One former wrestler who not only rarely got any publicity but more often than not, got NONE was Zoltan Boscik. The story was that he escaped from Hungary during the 1956 uprising and I don't think I ever heard anything that disputed that. What I did know was that while he was rather small, he always gave a performance and would have given George Kidd a fight in how many ways there were to roll yourself into a ball!!

I agree that Zoltan Boscik was one of the top lightweights of his time. I think the regular fans at the time did recognise his talent. Not top of the bill but few lightweights were, probably only Kidd on a regular basis. He had everything the skill and agility plus that hardness that gave him the edge over most of the others.
