We take a trip to Ryogoku Kokugikan in Tokyo, Japan. Watch as I document sumo matches from the lower ranks all the way up to the makuuchi level. We catch a glimpse of Asashoryu doing his yokozuna dance, and see a couple of vicious and too close to call bouts.

Most people who watch an NHK-televised Sumo tourney are surprised by the speed, action and yes - viciousness of the bouts. It's a lot more than just a couple of fat dudes colliding like giant church bells made of tofu.
Sumo is amazing. They are not just two fat guys wrestling each other. The documentary I watched makes me really admire their perseverance and the difficulties they must go through.
