Also a great encourager with a great eye for athletic talent - as he saw straight away Eddie's ability as a really high level athlete and predicted he would beat all his guys! Which is exactly what happened, and he was also encouraging and complimentary towards Eddie which you can see inspired Eddie even more to want to compete at the World Champs. Hope it happens 😎
He will revitalize sumo, and make it a lil bit bigger. If retired strong man starts invading sumo, I would love to see how they will fair against the super heavy weights. I actually think it's fitting, historically there are sumo wrestlers that's very lean in muscle and less fat, they're quite of an anomaly in the sumo world.
The crazy thing is that World Strongest Man use to have Sumo, but was replace by pole pushing. I suspect they might have remove it to reduce injury, and reduce tension between competitor. I hope Eddie do give it a go. Considering that Bryan Shaw retire from Strongman, Eddie should call him up to come do it too.
It's amazing to me how Bangor defended himself against the other participants and Eddie despite the huge weight difference. No wonder he is the champion in his weight class.
that is correct, but the original rules state that there are no weight limitations! In japan one of the crowd favoreites is Enho, only weighing 90 kg and going against 150+kg opponents regularly and beating them. you should check it out
Honestly, I never thought I would enjoy watching sumo wrestling so much. This sport needs so much more love and recognition, and I'm glad you're bringing attention to it, Eddie!
When I traveled to Tokyo few years back, watching a sumo competition there live was easily the most entertaining part of the trip.. totally did not expected that but clearly sumo wrestling is a veeery underappreciated sport.
Never thought Eddie Hall and sumo would pair so well together. The base from strongman put him at an awesome level without ever competing in it, imagine if Eddie had some training how far he could have gone in sumo (obviously he is no longer in his prime, he has dedicated his life to strongman, but I see him doing some damage in the sumo world).
This was actually impressive. Being an athlete that trained his whole life into a specific kind of competition and then being so immediatley effective into another one is quite rare. I honestly think you should jump into this adventure Eddie… Love from Italy.
its not completely another if u think about it eddies the strongest man in the world not to mention if you saw him swimming he is agile and fast af soo he has every quality to be a sumo champion
@@goodvibesonly4821 you are right, that’s the point. I precticed martial arts many years and the physical skill requirement plus muscle memory to be effective is huge. The fact that, thanks to his past activities, basically Eddie looks almost ready for sumo is great and surprising at the same time. I would really like to see him training and competing in this discipline.
@@Urizen274 bro I would be so hypedd if he decides to try sumo and become a champion it totally suits him and from what we saw he proved to us he can definitely do it obviously he needs to train very hard and it would not hurt to gain a bit more size like he is 185 to get like 10 more kg cause.there is gonna be super huge guys there
Some athletic adventures are just simply more advance than others. I know there is a lot more to top-level sumo. But compared to many other things, it's not like you exactly you need years of training in. There are US Pro wrestler who went over there and dominated for a few years in the 80s.
I mean... honestly he competed against some hobby guys here. No way he can win anything in Japan. Maybe with clear focus and years of training he can make it to the lower ranks of Juryio division (~second league).
I vehemently disagree, I've watched every match for 9 bouts spanning 18 months and the sheer power, speed and control the top brass of Sumo puts into their opponents is no joke. If you told me a Sumo wrestler pushed a truck (4 wheeler not 18 wheeler) aside because it was in the way, i'd believe you. Don't even need to mention which. Aside from Enho Akira I'm sure most professional wrestlers could do it. And Enho can't because he's only 215 lbs and still wins from guys 3 times that weight and a foot taller than him. I want to add because I was incredibly hyped during it, but I watched Terunofuji achieve the highest rank in Sumo live, and man that was truly a match between titans. He went 11-1 for his matches and lost the last to the 69th yokozuna, Hakuho Sho, who's considered the greatest of all time @64366
Depends on how much he's willing to commit, even for him that would take a few years to achieve, in Japan the level is hella high and everyone is very heavy and technical.
Man I love how open minded Eddie was in this. Didn't give it the Jonny Big Balls straight from the word go, respected the sport, the coach and the competitors and just gave it a real good go. Love it.
Eddie NEEDS to do this. It's like the perfect fit for his competitive nature and the strongman world feeds so well into Sumo. It's like a perfect match up. Great vid
@@Envengerx sumos are richer than strongmen. If you win the official tournaments and have a gold star, you'll be making a lot. Sumo has 6 major tournaments and if you're not injured, and place well, in sure you'll earn more than most strongmen. Of course endorsements not included.

Well to be honest its a simple enough sport. However, Eddie is relying totally on brute force. So any technique, has yet to be achieved. Brute force can work -- like in any wrestling -- but it comes at a huge cost in energy. Note the race horse panting.
It's genuinely amazing watching eddie use years worth of honed technique from strongman in a sumo setting. His entire career was specialized towards moving and pulling extremely heavy objects, so has the strength and ability yet lacks training in the human aspect. Eddie learning it would make him a sumo powerhouse.
@@mysticalbeing8943 right so maybe because he was champ he had great coaching and he just knows how to do it, but then again not everyone who has experienced something can replicate it and not everyone who knows how to do something can teach it
It makes me genuinely so happy to watch Eddie and see how much of a positive, and gentle human being he is. Prime example for why you should never judge a book by its cover.
'' Prime example for why you should never judge a book by its cover '' bro that is litterally what you are doing... you only know him through youtube videos. I know you got many likes because '' positivity blabla '' but in fact what you say make no sense.
It honestly helps that what he’s been training at to be the worlds strongest, translates super well to sumo. being super stable and strong at low centre of gravity. Body builders who are the same weight would get tossed around like ragdolls. Not because they are weak, but just the shape of their body and where their mass is (tons of it being the upper body and slimmer at the waist)
Seriously Eddie, please try it. I was smiling from ear to ear through this whole video. Everyone can tell how much of an athlete you are, and your fervor for competing. I would love to follow you through the journey!
most people in japan will be about half his size in terms of cm and probably a quarter in weight . . wonder how he will deal with a world basically made for children compared to him. hell, the plane flight alone would be problematic, as we have seen before.
@@leonjulca I’ve been over there, I’m 6’ 2" 200lbs. It’s not racism. They are a tiny people, that’s why they all know kung fu, so they can still fight good. Ha ha joking but true. Not joking it was truly amazing walking the streets there. They enjoy seeing big dudes as much as we enjoy being with them. Earth is cool.
This is definitely one of your best videos yet Eddie and you could tell that you genuinely really enjoyed this one and I would love to see you compete!
I absolutely love the fact that this is literally the world's strongest man, and yet he's one of the most charming and kind people I've seen. Kudos to Eddie man.
Seeing Eddie continue posting videos about him training in sumo sounds like an awesome series to create Eddie’s been posting videos all about with variety content and they’re all bangers but to have a consistent series like sumo would be amazing
I will be seriously sad if Eddie doesn't try a competition. Out of all the things he's done on this channel this is the one he looks most at home with.
@@bilogskii2216 not at all but few organizations are as loose about oefs as strongman, doubt tagt he'd pass a test plus he's openly admittedt to it on several occasions
This was probably my favorite Eddie video of all. Such wholesome and fun competition. Everybody respectful and enjoying their sport. Steve the coach was simply amazing. What a nice energy about him. Really loves the sport and the community of the sport.
Strongman is literally the best possible crossover sport to do before getting into sumo. Both are all about moving massive, unstable weights with balance and speed. If he wants it, I don't see anything keeping him from attaining incredible results in sumo. Well....almost anything, there is a kind of super-traditionalist/borderline nationalist element to sumo leagues, but I think that's been improving in the last couple decades.
Eddie, just do it already. You're an incredible ambassador for sports, and Sumo definitely deserves a spotlight for Westerners that you're perfectly positioned to provide.
Great video but why is nobody talking about how great of a trainer Steve is? He is the back bone of the team and the way he explains and talks with someone he meets first time is beyond respecful and long forgotten in the marital arts industry. I wish I lived in UK and would gladly join the team just because of Steve. Steve knows his stuff and he is what the saying "with age comes wisdom" represents and should represent.
Sumo Steve truly is a gem. The gym he runs is for the local community and is doing a great job of keeping the sport of sumo alive in the UK. I have trained with him in the under 90kg category. Really enjoyable.
Maybe your best video yet? The level of respect in the gym, I love! And Steve has missed his calling at being a sports commentator! Brilliant! Well done to all involved. I really do hope you keep it up Eddie.
Well, his strongman training is VERY well-suited for sumo. Pushing cars or pushing big sumo guys.. kind of the same thing.. Honestly I say he'd be competitive.
The fact that Eddie just walked into a new sport and dominated world champions is extremely impressive. 💯 looks like the UK is going to have a few more gold medals in Sumo soon 😈
I've been living in Japan for twenty years and follow Japanese sumo, and I'd love to see Eddie spend a few days at a sumo stable and try the incredibly hard training (and eat the vast quantities of chanko-nabe.)
Competitions for Japan's sumo are tough it can be as difficult as him attaining the world's strongest title. So it would be really interesting if he tried it out. No layman has ever attempted this beside a few influencer meeting retired japanese sumo wrestlers. We've seen MMA face a sumo before but not someone who is active at the Makunouchi division which is a whole another lvl. Right now Eddie just looks like his facing beginners as even their technique seems pretty rough and they are also pretty light if you compare it to the general Japan's sumo stables.
Do it Eddie. You've unknowingly been training for this your whole career and you could see how much you enjoyed it. And you will have a new goal and the chance to compete again in something totally new at the highest level. 💪🏻
it's amazing to see how fast Eddie learns to use his power more efficiently as the video goes on. At first, even though he was heavier and stronger than most of them, he was having a hard time on the floor, and pushing because he was unable to get grounded, but as he became more comfortable, he was actually able to just bulldoze through them
This has been the most enjoyable Eddie Hall video I've seen. This could be the start of one great journey. I hope Eddie finds the time and gives this a proper go!
Eddie is the epitome of inspiration, if I had any real willpower other than pure anger to push me to finally get back in shape I'd listen to Eddie during every session
That's just excuses talking, you don't need anything to get into shape. Clear your mind and just go, take a deep breath and count to 3 and just do it, get moving because once you're at the gym you've won, even if you don't do a lot just any workout will do and if you stay consistent you'll start to do more!
I have severe social anxiety so going and doing something I've never learned, alone, surrounded by more experienced people is terrifying but I do feel bad for quiting running and doin sit ups, crunches, push ups daily. Need to stop being lazy lol
@@obnoxiouszubat6014 Hey you said it, it's hard, don't be harsh on yourself, be kind and patient, be your own friend, u'll get the hang of it eventually, it's the small steps that counts
Would love to see eddie carry on with the once a week training and compete in the next title to see where he goes . Would be great achievement and entertainment you can just see the strength come out when he gets more competetive ❤
Don't know if it's that simple, there's much more to Sumo then what goes on in the ring. He'd literally have to take time away from his carreer for that but yea, I'd love to see it as well.
Got a feeling that coach has made alot of people cry with enthusiastic joy from his praise and encouragement down the years. Great video eddie, been a fan of yours for a good 10 plus years.
Wow this was incredibly entertaining. Eddie has a natural talent for this. You could tell he wasn’t always brute forcing but he has intuition to use his weight and leverage to his advantage. I’d love to see him go to Japan. Maybe Eddie in sumo could be like what Larry wheels did for armwrestling. I’d love to see more
Deep is an absolute unit, he was smoking everyone. Being the open weight champ and being undersized like that is insane. Eddie did great for it being his first time, and he could definitely be a real wrestler if he trained for it.
You should 100% do it, be a banger of a series. "Journey To Tokyo", all your training vids, get some of your strongman friends at your house n build a sumo ring. The possibilities!
Eddie sack the bodybuilding you can actually see you have focus, drive and determination for this, you’d definitely be cut out for this far more than bodybuilding. Give this your all, this competition just showed your natural potential. You have the size, strength, brains and competitiveness for this
I don't think you realize what real sumo is....what you see in this video is literally nothing compared to what real top division sumo looks like. I mean literally less than 1% of what the top sumos are capable of. They'd play around with Eddie like he was a rookie...Eddie would need minimum 3 years of dedicated daily training to even think about being competitive and he's already too old for that
No one actually believes he's serious about bodybuilding lol he's just trying out different things for entertainment, which is why I love this channel haha
@@TheBcoolGuy man’s holding wayyy to much body fat to do a cut in time for late 2024, seems well on paper but much longer process with his current physique and if he’s wanting to try sumo he would wanna hold onto mass
@@anklebreaka03 well I’d fancy his chances better in sumo than bodybuilding, definitely doesn’t have the genetics needed for the sport, whereas he could get to a good intermediate level in sumo with a bit of practice. Would be a stretch to say he could compete in highest level but he would certainly fair better in sumo
its astonishing how good and techinical eddie is as an athlete. However natural ability isn't enough alone, i admire his conviction to be the best at any physical competition he attempts no matter the challenge.
Eddie is not only incredibly strong, but also very athletic and understands balance well. If he spends more time training sumo it’s not hard to imagine him winning a world championship
Nah he could do alright at amateur competitions but to compete at a high level takes years of skill development, not to mention the top guys in Japan are pretty massive too he wouldn't have the weight advantage there.
The "Otoi O-zumo" held every year in my small town in Japan is a rare Sumo tournament in which professionals also participate and amateur players can challenge them. It would be great if people from overseas with advanced skills could come to the tournament. Last year, a national team from Ukraine came to this sumo stadium to practice.
Steve is everything you want in a coach he has passion, knowledge, skill, positivity and encouragement it’s brilliant seems like an environment where everyone will thrive and enjoy themselves, great video.
It's people like this coach that feed the passion into the next generations of any sport and keep it going, would love to see beast mode engaged on this idea and make it happen
Eddie's just like a big kid trying out all sorts of fun stuff, besides the awesome strength it's inspiring just to see someone approach life with such a fun attitude.
@@puppethound That has no basis in reality, virtually all of the other strongmen don't have Eddie's relaxed and humorous approach, nor do most other celebrities who usually take themselves way too seriously. He's famous because of the attitude, not the other way around
Seeing Eddie develop the technique of literally attempting to get a good low grip, and then forcing the opponents feet off the floor for no more than a second, giving him a very good chance to shuffle them where he wants them without them being able to counter play... Seeing him put his world's strongest teachings to amazing use in Sumo... Is such a brilliant thing.
This was brilliant to watch. The trainer was such an infectious enthusiastic bloke - loved his energy! Well done to you Eddie. I’d watch the WC if you decided to be in it. It would be great exposure to a really unique sport!
This was absolutely unbelievable! Eddie tries Sumo for the first time and beats all 3 British champions. How is that not the craziest thing you've ever seen?
I was thinking they were taking it easy on him, but that final round, Deep really looked like he was giving it his all. This is a great video, not just for the skill but because Eddie was seriously enjoying himself. I’d love to see a few more “training montage” videos like he did when he was doing boxing training. He’s have at least one viewer here.
These guys are nothing compared to what real sumo champions look like, don't get the wrong idea. And I genuinely mean nothing...like not even 1% of what the top division sumo are capable of.
The fun thing is he was 440 pounds and on a s*it ton of roids. Steroids give you insane strength he is rn on lower dosages if he took that cycle again and tried to be a sumo wrestler he would come very far
Eddie taking Sumo seriously would be a dream come true for me to watch! As a huge fan of Sumo and Strongman, nothing would make me happier (except maybe if Brian were to somehow make an appearance too!)
They really are amazing athletes. They have to make strategy adjustments on-the-fly in a split-second while trying to keep their opponents from doing the same thing. Most of the bouts end in a matter of seconds, but they are INTENSE seconds. There are several sumo channels on UA-cam that play the highlights from the great bashos (tournaments) in Japan; check them out.
Yeah for Sure. Altho i Foul never See myself getting into it. Since altho theyre strong it still seems so unhealthy for your body carrying all that fat
Who wants to see me go to Japan and compete for the UK?

100%, sumo definitely deserves to become more popular

well he did say he was 10x champ so
@@mysticalbeing8943 right so maybe because he was champ he had great coaching and he just knows how to do it, but then again not everyone who has experienced something can replicate it and not everyone who knows how to do something can teach it
Apparently tonight is an Eddie Hall night watching his videos non stop! They are so entertaining! Such a humble and down to earth person!
It makes me genuinely so happy to watch Eddie and see how much of a positive, and gentle human being he is. Prime example for why you should never judge a book by its cover.
@@MdoubleHBxxcite your sources
same with Brian Shaw. hes like a big teddy bear
gentle!
-proceeds to smack people to the floor-
'' Prime example for why you should never judge a book by its cover '' bro that is litterally what you are doing... you only know him through youtube videos. I know you got many likes because '' positivity blabla '' but in fact what you say make no sense.
Until he gets arrested for running over another guys car.
Of all the random things Eddie has tried through this UA-cam series this is the one I'd love to see him stick with the most by far.
Yes, it's amazing and inspiring.
Coach was soooo hype for Eddie going further. Just like Eddie was interested. I would love to see more of this.
Definitely, those smiles don't lie.
I love how honest Eddie is. Bro is one of the scariest men ever and he's really letting us know he's struggling a bit.
Eddie got taught in 5 minutes what they were taught for 20 years and he beat them😂😂😂
It honestly helps that what he’s been training at to be the worlds strongest, translates super well to sumo. being super stable and strong at low centre of gravity. Body builders who are the same weight would get tossed around like ragdolls. Not because they are weak, but just the shape of their body and where their mass is (tons of it being the upper body and slimmer at the waist)
@@Insert.anger50most of the time spent sumo training is strength, conditioning and mass gaining so it makes sense
Seriously Eddie, please try it. I was smiling from ear to ear through this whole video. Everyone can tell how much of an athlete you are, and your fervor for competing. I would love to follow you through the journey!
@@MdoubleHBxxwow so much hate 😂
@@MdoubleHBxxI'm sure your lifespan will be shorter than Eddie's.
@@MdoubleHBxx into the asylum you go nuthead.
@@MdoubleHBxx You wish death on him because he eats meat?
Oh shit a vegan
THIS HAS TO HAPPEN!!!! Plus watching Eddie navigate japan would be absolute GOLD!
Yeah funny, I just imagined Eddie trying to navigate the trains by himself, lol
bro he's gonna be so racist💀💀💀💀
most people in japan will be about half his size in terms of cm and probably a quarter in weight . .
wonder how he will deal with a world basically made for children compared to him.
hell, the plane flight alone would be problematic, as we have seen before.
@@leonjulca I’ve been over there, I’m 6’ 2" 200lbs. It’s not racism. They are a tiny people, that’s why they all know kung fu, so they can still fight good. Ha ha joking but true. Not joking it was truly amazing walking the streets there. They enjoy seeing big dudes as much as we enjoy being with them. Earth is cool.
Happy to be a translator and guide for him! Just throwing that out there =)
This is definitely one of your best videos yet Eddie and you could tell that you genuinely really enjoyed this one and I would love to see you compete!
I was about to comment this, word for word. Definitely want to see more of this.
Indeed was nice to see him in his element
Oh Yeah yeah
I absolutely love the fact that this is literally the world's strongest man, and yet he's one of the most charming and kind people I've seen. Kudos to Eddie man.
The way they reacted when he asked if he's better off just falling on them 😂😂
9:25
exactly my thought lol
@@patriktoth10 marcello ????
Like, wooo steady on there lad!
You better do this eddie!! For your country!! Come back with your shield 🛡 or on it!!!
Seeing Eddie continue posting videos about him training in sumo sounds like an awesome series to create
Eddie’s been posting videos all about with variety content and they’re all bangers but to have a consistent series like sumo would be amazing
Would definitely watch that. Would love a training camp series in Japan.
I will be seriously sad if Eddie doesn't try a competition. Out of all the things he's done on this channel this is the one he looks most at home with.
Pues si. es como ver una morsa con barba muy feliz de estar en su hábitat, junto con otras morsas😂
Dont forget he takes PEDs probably cant compete because of that
@@lordbloeckchen332 What you think competitive sumo doesn't use peds?
@@bilogskii2216 not at all but few organizations are as loose about oefs as strongman, doubt tagt he'd pass a test plus he's openly admittedt to it on several occasions
Aye his boxing didn't go very well.
The combination of the fight starting at 13:37 and that guys face when Eddie picked him up and put him down outside the ring is perfection
This was probably my favorite Eddie video of all.
Such wholesome and fun competition. Everybody respectful and enjoying their sport.
Steve the coach was simply amazing. What a nice energy about him. Really loves the sport and the community of the sport.
this video makes me forget the others. best one hands down
This is absolutely the direction Eddie should go in. He’s got natural passion and talent for it. Really hope he follows up on this is a major way!
Aquadude5
Absolutely agree...you could see the joy radiate from Eddie
I dont he is gonna be great if he slims down that much for bodybuilding lol
Strongman is literally the best possible crossover sport to do before getting into sumo. Both are all about moving massive, unstable weights with balance and speed. If he wants it, I don't see anything keeping him from attaining incredible results in sumo. Well....almost anything, there is a kind of super-traditionalist/borderline nationalist element to sumo leagues, but I think that's been improving in the last couple decades.
a real japanese sumo would crush him, although he wouldnt pass the blood test anyway
@@JackgarPrime big guys that know greco roman would be a crazy crossover as well
Eddie, just do it already. You're an incredible ambassador for sports, and Sumo definitely deserves a spotlight for Westerners that you're perfectly positioned to provide.
They won't let him with tatoos
@@ivanvoronov3871 oh really?
@@ivanvoronov3871 Eddie can get those removed.
@@ivanvoronov3871 You never heard of sleeves? Not hard to cover tattoos up. There's technology that thought of that.
@@ivanvoronov3871 that wouldnt quite make sense considering Deep has Tattoos?
Sick that was one of my fravorite vid yet for eddie. That was awesome
Eddie halls content is becoming one of a kind. Love the fact that his strength plays a huge role in these videos
Eddie's always been my favorite bodybuilding creator for fun videos. I like Doucette for funny and information, Nick and MPMD for info.
Great video but why is nobody talking about how great of a trainer Steve is? He is the back bone of the team and the way he explains and talks with someone he meets first time is beyond respecful and long forgotten in the marital arts industry. I wish I lived in UK and would gladly join the team just because of Steve. Steve knows his stuff and he is what the saying "with age comes wisdom" represents and should represent.
He sounds like a world class class coach wen he talks. Rare gem 💎
Agreed! Just made a short appreciation post as well. Truly a first class gentleman!
I remember being coached by Steve doing some weightlifting as a young kid. Lovely fella!
with more training i think you could compete in Japan the sport suits you more than other fighting skills but the Japanese fighters are brutal
Sumo Steve truly is a gem. The gym he runs is for the local community and is doing a great job of keeping the sport of sumo alive in the UK. I have trained with him in the under 90kg category. Really enjoyable.
Maybe your best video yet? The level of respect in the gym, I love! And Steve has missed his calling at being a sports commentator! Brilliant! Well done to all involved. I really do hope you keep it up Eddie.
What a coach Steve is! It's always great to have a coach like him in martial arts
This must have been such a treat for the coach to have a strongman come give it a go. Everyone looks like they had a blast.
He was hoping that his fighters would take notice of how heavy lifting would make them better
A strongman ?
Nuh uh
THE strongman
@@wyldeyouth really? sumotori aren't strangers to putting up extraordinary numbers in the gym
@@ruutjormun2262 listen to what coach says in the beginning. And ofc i understand that they lift weights, that's not what I am saying
Eddie going after sumo is more realistic than him pursuing bodybuilding
99999999%
Yeah million percent lmao
One hunna
Not really...height-wise, he's shorter than "Mountain Man" and weight-wise, that's pretty easy to drop with more lean eating and increased cardio.
@@user-tb2jy9lu3d He will never do this because he lacks eating discipline.
That is insane. To compete with champions that are heavier and with more experienced and beat them shows how true of an athlete you are. Good job man
Just look at their bodies. They might out weigh him but with huge amounts of fat. Eddie probably has more muscle than 2 or 3 of them combined
@@jazazo4956true but If he goes to Japan it'll be a whole other story
Amateur Sumo is a drug tested, WADA compliant sport. Eddie has no place officially competing against these individuals.
Wonder what they’d rank in Japan
Well, his strongman training is VERY well-suited for sumo.
Pushing cars or pushing big sumo guys.. kind of the same thing..
Honestly I say he'd be competitive.
The fact that Eddie just walked into a new sport and dominated world champions is extremely impressive. 💯 looks like the UK is going to have a few more gold medals in Sumo soon 😈
Well, he is just much much bigger(muscles) than the other.
If Eddie is still taking gear it's a little less impressive
well 1. they were british champions and 2. sumo in japan is much more high level
I've been living in Japan for twenty years and follow Japanese sumo, and I'd love to see Eddie spend a few days at a sumo stable and try the incredibly hard training (and eat the vast quantities of chanko-nabe.)
The eating part won't be hard for him.
@@stampedmetalsword8099 for real man goes to restaurants and orders 3 meals worth of food for himself
Competitions for Japan's sumo are tough it can be as difficult as him attaining the world's strongest title. So it would be really interesting if he tried it out. No layman has ever attempted this beside a few influencer meeting retired japanese sumo wrestlers. We've seen MMA face a sumo before but not someone who is active at the Makunouchi division which is a whole another lvl. Right now Eddie just looks like his facing beginners as even their technique seems pretty rough and they are also pretty light if you compare it to the general Japan's sumo stables.
He might consider doing a few days- just to see what it's like, but he's a strong man first and foremost. Doubt he wants to put on _too_ much weight.
Nah he would constantly make racist jokes like "is that dog".
Just shows how strong Eddie truly is. He beat CHAMPIONS that train the sport specifically. Imagine Eddie in his Prime doing this , insane strength
In a way he's trained his whole life for this.
@@lorddeimosTheGreat yeah, sweatin' it out in the kitchen :D :D
Eddie is still in his prime!!!
Do they ped test in sumo?
they are amateur champs. Actual Pro sumo is a different ball game
It’s so nice to watch when Eddie is being respectful of the hosts and the sport makes such better viewing. Best video in ages.
10:27 This was really well done, Eddie would be a great Sumo learning technique and improvising this fast!!
IF EDDIE EVER GETS TO TRAVEL ID LOVE TO SEE MORE SUMO CONTENT!! This was sooooo in his league!! and i can see him getting better tbh
If you wanna see more sumō look up some Hakuhō highlights, he’s the greatest of all time.
bruh eddie is on an absurd amount of steroids, I'm sure they have a ban on PEDs.
@@ParkerMartin-y8g for sure my man. = )) the juice is banned in japan im preaty sure
@@ParkerMartin-y8g you’re way over your head
Do it Eddie. You've unknowingly been training for this your whole career and you could see how much you enjoyed it. And you will have a new goal and the chance to compete again in something totally new at the highest level. 💪🏻
Eddie: I'm gonna be a ripped bodybuilder
Also Eddie: I'm gonna be world champion in Sumo
Exactly 😂
🤣 True. I'd go for the sumo if I were Eddie. There's serious potential there.
lol
He can forget bodybuilding, he's got some potential in Sumo
He realized he had no interest whatsoever in dieting lol
Dude I could watch this all day. WTF. I need to see Eddie fighting in sumo!
it's amazing to see how fast Eddie learns to use his power more efficiently as the video goes on. At first, even though he was heavier and stronger than most of them, he was having a hard time on the floor, and pushing because he was unable to get grounded, but as he became more comfortable, he was actually able to just bulldoze through them
The beauty of a strongman, not only strong as fuck but functional as well. These guys are TRUE athletes.
This has been the most enjoyable Eddie Hall video I've seen. This could be the start of one great journey. I hope Eddie finds the time and gives this a proper go!
Fully agreed!
Definitely entertaining. I'm wondering if ped use is allowed in sumo though
I guess not otherwise the athletes would look differently.
However, really one of the best videos recently!
Eddie is the epitome of inspiration, if I had any real willpower other than pure anger to push me to finally get back in shape I'd listen to Eddie during every session
calm ur mind, be at peace when you train, dont let your emotions get the best of you, dont feed the anger, listen to it and understand it
@@dazzoia6216 why does this remind me of kratos
That's just excuses talking, you don't need anything to get into shape. Clear your mind and just go, take a deep breath and count to 3 and just do it, get moving because once you're at the gym you've won, even if you don't do a lot just any workout will do and if you stay consistent you'll start to do more!
I have severe social anxiety so going and doing something I've never learned, alone, surrounded by more experienced people is terrifying but I do feel bad for quiting running and doin sit ups, crunches, push ups daily. Need to stop being lazy lol
@@obnoxiouszubat6014 Hey you said it, it's hard, don't be harsh on yourself, be kind and patient, be your own friend, u'll get the hang of it eventually, it's the small steps that counts

you absolutely must take home that title Eddie. with your dedication and competitive drive, I know you could do it.
The World Championships are a drug tested WADA compliant event. That would be like Eddie Hall deciding to compete in natural Bodybuilding.

Me to! I'm Dutch and if he ever goes to the big tournaments in Japan I'll stay up at night for it!
Don't know if it's that simple, there's much more to Sumo then what goes on in the ring. He'd literally have to take time away from his carreer for that but yea, I'd love to see it as well.
@@S1RLANC3 did you watch the end of the vid?
@@jacobbalcer7913 Yes, I’m aware that he’s tempted but that still has nothing to do with what i was initially referring to.
Rather that than fighting or MMA.
Eddies technique in the second bout vs Courtney was actually pretty good! Solid Tachi-ai, and Yorikiri.
Got a feeling that coach has made alot of people cry with enthusiastic joy from his praise and encouragement down the years. Great video eddie, been a fan of yours for a good 10 plus years.
Steve is everything you want in a coach
Wow this was incredibly entertaining. Eddie has a natural talent for this. You could tell he wasn’t always brute forcing but he has intuition to use his weight and leverage to his advantage. I’d love to see him go to Japan. Maybe Eddie in sumo could be like what Larry wheels did for armwrestling. I’d love to see more
he'll get destroyed against mid level wrestlers.

Deep is an absolute unit, he was smoking everyone. Being the open weight champ and being undersized like that is insane. Eddie did great for it being his first time, and he could definitely be a real wrestler if he trained for it.
Was looking for this, deep was amazing!
If he trained and stopped the steroids required to maintain his physique.

@@spinekingjrgensen5779 Depends on what wrestling, most are highly controlled sports for any form of dopping.
You should 100% do it, be a banger of a series. "Journey To Tokyo", all your training vids, get some of your strongman friends at your house n build a sumo ring. The possibilities!
Eddie's such a cool guy , a great ambassador for his sport
I love how the coach knew your potential and even said how he’s looking forward to you winning! Well done Eddie 💪🏻
Eddie sack the bodybuilding you can actually see you have focus, drive and determination for this, you’d definitely be cut out for this far more than bodybuilding. Give this your all, this competition just showed your natural potential. You have the size, strength, brains and competitiveness for this
I don't see why he can't do both. This'll do well with his bulk, and he's cutting for a show in late 2024.
I don't think you realize what real sumo is....what you see in this video is literally nothing compared to what real top division sumo looks like. I mean literally less than 1% of what the top sumos are capable of. They'd play around with Eddie like he was a rookie...Eddie would need minimum 3 years of dedicated daily training to even think about being competitive and he's already too old for that
No one actually believes he's serious about bodybuilding lol he's just trying out different things for entertainment, which is why I love this channel haha
@@TheBcoolGuy man’s holding wayyy to much body fat to do a cut in time for late 2024, seems well on paper but much longer process with his current physique and if he’s wanting to try sumo he would wanna hold onto mass
@@anklebreaka03 well I’d fancy his chances better in sumo than bodybuilding, definitely doesn’t have the genetics needed for the sport, whereas he could get to a good intermediate level in sumo with a bit of practice. Would be a stretch to say he could compete in highest level but he would certainly fair better in sumo
its astonishing how good and techinical eddie is as an athlete. However natural ability isn't enough alone, i admire his conviction to be the best at any physical competition he attempts no matter the challenge.
I don't think its natural ability at play, he worked to strongest man. It's more of a strenght Vs technique bout
He should try to be the best at running a 5k lmao

Eddie is not only incredibly strong, but also very athletic and understands balance well. If he spends more time training sumo it’s not hard to imagine him winning a world championship
that's so true
Eddie is on roids calm down bro
Nah he could do alright at amateur competitions but to compete at a high level takes years of skill development, not to mention the top guys in Japan are pretty massive too he wouldn't have the weight advantage there.

The "Otoi O-zumo" held every year in my small town in Japan is a rare Sumo tournament in which professionals also participate and amateur players can challenge them. It would be great if people from overseas with advanced skills could come to the tournament. Last year, a national team from Ukraine came to this sumo stadium to practice.
Steve is everything you want in a coach he has passion, knowledge, skill, positivity and encouragement it’s brilliant seems like an environment where everyone will thrive and enjoy themselves, great video.
Eddie has totally changed my mind , used to find him ott, but he chsnged me, good on him !
It's people like this coach that feed the passion into the next generations of any sport and keep it going, would love to see beast mode engaged on this idea and make it happen
Eddie's just like a big kid trying out all sorts of fun stuff, besides the awesome strength it's inspiring just to see someone approach life with such a fun attitude.
Well when you are celebrity it's kind of easy to have a "fun attitude"
@@puppethound That has no basis in reality, virtually all of the other strongmen don't have Eddie's relaxed and humorous approach, nor do most other celebrities who usually take themselves way too seriously. He's famous because of the attitude, not the other way around
Seeing Eddie develop the technique of literally attempting to get a good low grip, and then forcing the opponents feet off the floor for no more than a second, giving him a very good chance to shuffle them where he wants them without them being able to counter play... Seeing him put his world's strongest teachings to amazing use in Sumo... Is such a brilliant thing.
I really appreciate that they showed everyone compete, and not just Eddie.
This was brilliant to watch. The trainer was such an infectious enthusiastic bloke - loved his energy! Well done to you Eddie. I’d watch the WC if you decided to be in it. It would be great exposure to a really unique sport!
35 years of age. You got time to take this championship and more! Go for it! Love the content and the variety of challenges you put yourself through.
This was absolutely unbelievable! Eddie tries Sumo for the first time and beats all 3 British champions. How is that not the craziest thing you've ever seen?
Not so crazy if you think about it. Impressive, but not crazy. The guy has won the title of the strongest man on earth so...
I was thinking they were taking it easy on him, but that final round, Deep really looked like he was giving it his all.
This is a great video, not just for the skill but because Eddie was seriously enjoying himself. I’d love to see a few more “training montage” videos like he did when he was doing boxing training.
He’s have at least one viewer here.
These guys are nothing compared to what real sumo champions look like, don't get the wrong idea. And I genuinely mean nothing...like not even 1% of what the top division sumo are capable of.
its impressive but to be honest tho theres no way eddie beats any japanese wrestlers that are similar weight that arent even champs.
@@anklebreaka03 Is it mainly just the weight difference or the level of technical prowess?
I love the respect these two show. One has trained his body, on is mixed on body and technique but both have respect.
I was smiling the entire way through. Great sportsmanship from all the athletes in this video! Awesome!
Just imagine prime Eddie back in 2017! 440 lbs! 👀
That extra weight and static Streangth 💀. If prime Eddie was there my goodness.
He would have moved the building along with those fellows
He would be overhead pressing them
The fun thing is he was 440 pounds and on a s*it ton of roids. Steroids give you insane strength he is rn on lower dosages if he took that cycle again and tried to be a sumo wrestler he would come very far
Imagine him just hydrated.
DO IT man!! We all saw how much you actually really loved it. Do this journey, sir.
I dig the sportsmanship here.
I never realized how bad I needed Eddie doing sumo in my life 😂 and this looks like so much fun!!
Eddie taking Sumo seriously would be a dream come true for me to watch! As a huge fan of Sumo and Strongman, nothing would make me happier (except maybe if Brian were to somehow make an appearance too!)
Watching this has given me so much respect for sumo wrestlers, I didn’t know much before, but this really did a good job on showing how intense it is.
They really are amazing athletes. They have to make strategy adjustments on-the-fly in a split-second while trying to keep their opponents from doing the same thing. Most of the bouts end in a matter of seconds, but they are INTENSE seconds. There are several sumo channels on UA-cam that play the highlights from the great bashos (tournaments) in Japan; check them out.
Yeah for Sure. Altho i Foul never See myself getting into it. Since altho theyre strong it still seems so unhealthy for your body carrying all that fat
@@jl6471 Most professional sumos drop a lot of the excess weight after they retire and no longer need the mass for wrestling.
These aren't real sumo wrestlers, they are only in Japan.
@415s30 so what are these guys doing then if its not sumo?
So much fun to watch this dude. Not only freak of nature strong but also seems like a genuinely friendly guy
Now that's what you call a coach, simple information, clearly stated with both enthusiasm and knowledge.
100%! GOD bless him and his gym.
