Who was Goga Pahalwan?

Goga Pahalwan was a world class Pakistani professional wrestler, born in the city of Amritsar in India in a household brimming with wrestling victories. He remained under the pupilage of Great Gama of India for 15 years. He displayed a blazing fighting style, with speedy reflexes seldom giving his opponents a chance to return. Favorite maneuvers were back flying kick, body slam and leg breaker etc. Goga was the youngest among his Bholu brothers who remained a professional wrestler during the later years. He mostly traveled around with Akram Pahalwan. Goga is better remembered because he continued wrestling during the later 1970s while his other brothers have retired from professional wrestling.
