EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intensity and drama of a professional wrestling match between Cyanide Sid Cooper and Chris Adams, taken in the picturesque setting of Penlee Park in Penzance, Cornwall during the 1980s. The open-air ring, surrounded by lush greenery and the vibrant colors of the ropes, adds to the unique charm of this sporting event. In the image, Cooper, also known as "Cry Baby" Sid, is seen in a determined struggle against Adams, a black belt wrestler. The tension in their bodies and the focused expressions on their faces convey the physical and mental effort required in this high-energy performance. Adams, with a triumphant look, has successfully secured a submission hold on Cooper, who is currently in a defensive position, trying to escape. The referee, standing by, keeps a watchful eye on the bout, ensuring that the rules are being followed. The crowd, though not visible in the frame, is no doubt cheering and engaging with the action, adding to the lively atmosphere. This photograph is a testament to the raw energy, skill, and entertainment that professional wrestling provides, making it a popular pastime during the 1980s and beyond.
