Roger Atlas vs Joey McCoy, Catalog 31- Pummel and Grope (MuscleBoy)

Here's an inventive and fast-paced big-vs-little match that breaks the rules. Joey McCoy is on fire in a giant leap away from his babyface past. I found myself almost pitying burly strongman Roger. Joey dominates Atlas from the start with one astounding and pitiless assault after another. Eventually - about halfway through the video - Atlas manages to strike back, but Joey won't slow down, much less call it quits. Both wrestlers exhibit a huge capacity for absorbing pain and carrying on in one of the most demanding ring fights in MuscleBoy history. Joey and Roger both hit a career high with this back-and-forth masterpiece.

The last eight minutes, not represented in the GIFs above, are decisive, parading a thrilling line of thrusts, stomps, splashes, stretches, rollovers, punches, slams, slaps. and backbreakers, Each man throws his full weight into every assault. Roger can rely on his body mass; Joey relies on jet propulsion. Neither walks away unscathed; in fact, one doesn't walk away at all. It's a close fight despite an 85-pound weight difference. This is not your typical big-vs-little match.
