I recently met a man who grew up in Hong Kong in the 1950s and said that he often went to chimpanzee/human wrestling matches as a form of entertainment during his childhood and teenage years. I tried to google, but couldn't find much beyond youtube videos of individuals wrestling chimpanzees. Was chimpanzee/human wrestling a common form of entertainment in Hong Kong? What about other areas? Any added details regarding prices, usual outcomes, etc would also be appreciated.
If you don't get answers here, it would be worth x-posting to a regional sub, e.g. /r/HongKong
