Colton Rohtin

From The Great Outdoor Fight

Jump to: navigation, search

"Commie" Colton Rohtin (November 12th 1879 - January 1st 1967) was the Champion of the 1910 Great Outdoor Fight and a noted social and political activist. Whilst not actually ever a supporter of any Communist Party, dalliances with the Populist and Socialist movements in the late 19th and early 20th century meant he was far enough to the left for the name to stick, and he bore the supposed term of abuse as a badge of honor. He continued to be involved in social and political causes after he won the fight, finding the time to found a charity dedicated to aiding those related to deceased fighters, as well as get involved in numerous other political causes, especially the civil rights movement. He was found dead himself in Alabama, shot three times through the heart, one of the few times the shooting of a Champion has not been attributed to the Ruling Body.

His biggest claim to fame outside of winning the Great Outdoor Fight is giving George Lincoln Rockwell a Texas Two-Step.
