I didn't see a Sumo thread anywhere. I'm not an expert on it but I know there is a lot more to it than just two fat guys trying to bump each other out of the ring.

I mean, there's some Technique to it of course, but ultimately it's two fat guys trying to bump each other out of the ring.

the reason Sumo wrestlers get fat is because there are no weight divisions. so getting as big as possible is beneficial. pre 20th century Sumo wrestlers were actually a lot smallerWell, I think the fat is necessary for sumo. Also it's about not getting stumbled out of the ring.
Lyoto machida has trained extensively in it and is he a big fat guy?Is there?

Show me a video of him competing in sumo. Anyone can train it, but to be successful you need to be massive.Lyoto machida has trained extensively in it and is he a big fat guy?
I've always enjoyed watching Sumo on TV. They used to broadcast a lot of it out here, not so much any more. Or at least it's not on my current cable package.
I find Sumo guys as big, strong men who can fight. As for fat......don't ever make the mistake of thinking a fat guy can't fight. Big mistake.
another example is ButterbeanAnd look at Roy Big Country Nelson. A true fat guy. And, man, can that boy fight like the Dickens.
