Wrestling career edit

Szoszky started his competitive career in 1910. After two years, in 1912, Szosky took part in the Stockholm Summer Olympics in the featherweight event, part of the Olympics Wrestling Program, but was eliminated after two rounds receiving no awards. Success followed a year later in 1913 when he won the gold medal at the unofficial European Championships. Nearly a decade later he would go on to win the Hungarian title in 1921 before immigrating to the United States.
