There certainly is women's sumo in Japan. I saw this one on TV and she was tossing members of a boy band around like they were match sticks.
It has none of the traditions and exposure of traditional sumo, but it exists.  |
^ hahaha!
and yet i'm disappointed, .... if they wore traditional sumo outfits i'm sure under exposure wouldnt be an issue. |

Really??? Who would want to watch a 300 pound Japanese woman half naked? I don't like being sexist, but I think this is a style best suited for men... Ozkai, I have been training Muay thai for years now, but I only just began competing recently. I'll stick with it for a long time. Side note, I think Sumo is cool; it's have to be the best martial art for street. I mean, they could put what most of us would call a big and well built guy right through a brick wall! Once they knocked you down, I doubt you'd want to get back up... the only down side is not everyone has the right "build" for it. |
haha come on who wouldnt want to watch a couple of 300lb ladies wrestle naked?!
it must already exist somewhere on interwebsland. someone else go google. I'm too afraid. |
And the next Grand Sumo tournament starts tomorrow!!!! Yes!

That they do! (imagine the forces at play!) They play a big role in deciding many matches too. |

That's awesome.. How do you make a living when training all the time? I thought Sumo looked boring in the begginning when I used to watch it on Japanese NHK TV. I started watching it more and more and really got into it and knew all the names of the wrestlers. It is cool and those guys certainly take a beating as fast as it looks. |
Are you watching?
