Russia hename of the great osetian wrestler Temirbolat Dudarovich Kanukov was famous.This bogatyr developed unusually. Before he was 1 year old, he was verysmall, feeble and delicate. Then he began to grow quickly. When he was 10 years old he worked with hisfather cutting trees in the forest. And when he was 5 years old he worked withlogs himself.

When Bola was 15, he was 2m 24sm long and weighed 200 kg.Temirbolat Bola Dudarovich Kanukov was called Kazbek - a mountain.Bola was very kind and uncunning. His neighbors often made him take exams inhis strength. And Bola easily managed to pass them.His family wasn t big - a wife, a daughter and anadopted son Vasiliy. Bola adapted him when Vasiliy was 2,5years old.

He loved him not less than a daughter.It was hard to hide such big man in a small village of Koban,and Temirbolat didn t like to sit in his mountain nest. Bola asked his fatherand went to Vladicavcas, where the Turkish circus was showing its tricks, andasked the bast wrestler to have a match, with Bola. He easily won the butcher . Thus Temirbolat became a circus wrestler.

He liked to wrestle inparterre. Facing Bola his rival couldn t stand on his legs.In 1904 Bola Kanukov became a professional wrestlerand played on the circus arena more than 10 years. He didn t have anytechnique, but he won his rivals with the help of strength and courage. He wonmany famous wrestlers.Last time Bola wrestled in 1917 in Baku.It was parting and that s why the hardest match.

It is enough to say that hisrivals were world champions. When he won last match he bowed standing on thesaint point of arena, which was small for him. He stayed in the wrestlinghistory as a very strong man. Temirbolat died with unusual death. He lay on the dryground. After the storm he couldn t stand, he was brought to the house ill.

Helay in bed for 3weeks and died. Bola was bored in Mayskoe village.In 1934 his daughter died. During the Great Patriotic War Vasiliy, hisadopted son, fought and died as a hero.
