Chiyonofuji highlight film.

Arguably the greatest Sumo wrestler of modern times, certainly one of the coolest.

Thanks. This guy was tough. He was only around 275lbs and solid as a rock.

IMpressive! I would like to do some Sumo. Not very popular here in the states at all. Even here in Seattle with all the japanese we have not one school or club.
Can anyone recommend a good book or two on Sumo (tactics, training, history)? I have a couple on Ssireum but nothing on Sumo and would like to know more.

Thanks
Jake
