Sandor Szabo (died October 16, 1966) was a Hungarian professional wrestler of the mid-twentieth century. At first, due to his large size, he was promoted by Jack Pfefer and Jack Curley of New York City as a "freak talent", one of a number of foreign and extraordinary wrestlers booked to attract the curious.
