Bro there’s another clip where Micah tries to move one of them not sure if it’s the same guy but Micah went hard like 3 times and sumo guy moved back like 3 feet once 😂 he’s never blocked a guy in his life and goes against one of the greatest rushers on earth. Extremely impressive

Why dont they have more sumo wrestlers as offensive linemen. Sumo wrestling is perfect for offrnsive lineman. Its a huge part of there culture for one also they have great hand work

[@I_love_burnt_toast]

Note that the sumo wrestler is at another disadvantage in that Micah didn't wear "mawashi" belt which is something he would go for to grab the opponent to have better control over him. The sumo wrestler was playing a receiver intentionally.

[@jayjacobl4667]

​there's a lot more to football than being able to win 1v1 reps. linemen need a lot of lateral quickness, need to understand not only their own blocking assignments, but also defensive schemes and techniques. also sumo you're only doing a few handful of matches, each lasting usually a few seconds - football you're in the game for 50-70 snaps. offensive linemen are often the highest iq players on the field other than qb, so putting someone who hasn't even played the game before and training them up is very hard - even relatively "stupid" position groups like RB have had a hard time converting players from other sports successfully.

[@just_2swift]

​@grichkatayou7558 true

[@Herbicide420]

I watched a video breaking down why sumos aren't in the NFL. Pretty much, they are too slow to play in the NFL. Too slow to be a defensive tackle or end, as well as too slow to be an offensive tackle. I don't remember the reasons they have for why they would be bad at guard and center but they just are not cut out for the NFL. Sumo wrestling has a different skill set then playing football. I don't think NFL players could hang with sumo wrestlers in sumo either. This wrestler gave Parsons a freebie with that last win. No way he would beat the sumo if he were being serious about it.

[@dirtporcelain]

He's not at all in NFL shape and would get dismanteled by every coach that lucky enough to play him. He's in Sumo shape and he's good at that.

[@Raptorsified]

The nice thing about sumo is that you don't get brain damage.

[@kidracks2991]

Its so many fundamentals, mental and physical that goes into football. Its wayyy more than just strength. He has to learn to block properly without grabbing / holding. Work on lateral quickness. Sliding and pulling to run block. Recognizing defensive schemes. Lol im pretty sure its more that im missing but yea. I dnt think it would be that easy of a transition. I think offensive lineman and d lineman should definitely take up sumo wrestling in the offseasons

Black Mawashi belt means that wrestler is a low ranked wrestler. White mawashi is a division 2 or 1 wrestler. You can see the difference in strength when he tried to move the Sekitori ( high rank).
