You’re the man Max.

[@thisisntme]

I'm a big fan of your videos.

[@roxrequiem2935]

Curse you and Guga for making us hungry yet we can't reach though the screen and we don't have the skill of either culinarians in the video.

[@BatmanPwnage]

​@theultimaterental yeah I agree. Tacos looked great. I liked the color. I'm tempted to make it too but cilantro in japan is like 5$😅 my husband just bought me a greenhouse so maybe I'll attempt the green sauce in a month or 2 😂

[@dragonballfreakable]

Honestly I thought Guga was a cute teddy bear, but seeing him comparable to size next to these sumos is terrifying and unexpected asf

[@JTBassvocals]

If I remember correctly, he is almost as tall as Nick DiGiovanni who is well over 6'3"

[@ーテイル]

@@JTBassvocals He's also a professional martial artist and could very well crush your spine like a Twinkie.

[@MASI1212]

@@JTBassvocals I'm pretty sure Guga's actually like 5 foot 8. Maxthemeatguy is around 5 foot 8 and you can see they're basically the same height in this video. Also, if you look at any of the videos hes done with Nick, Guga's way shorter than him.

[@MASI1212]

How is it terrifying? Sumo wreslers aren't enormous, they're usually under 6 feet, just extremely heavy.

[@ーテイル]

@@MASI1212 I'm 100% sure you don't want any smoke with one of them. Sumo wrestlers are the kind of people who if bump into you, you apologize.

[@zakronthesheep]

Their enthusiasm is just so wonderful. I normally don't have big facial reactions if I'm not actively trying to communicate with someone, but I couldn't stop smiling watching this.

[@marvinhamilton6637]

When Japanese, like something, they will straight up say it/show it.

[@lofizap840]

I appreciate this so much tbh. Most people want famous basketball or football players on their channel. Not often do you see sumos, and they're so wholesome and kind.

[@izmizzle]

If anyone is up to the task to fuel these calorie crushing MACHINES it's Guga. I couldn't imagine the kind of work you have to do to need to equal it out with 10k calories a day

[@silverredwing20]

The sumo wrestlers are like big children as they enjoy their food. This has got to be very wholesome watching the whole thing

[@90cpr]

I know right. It's so great.

[@Dephire]

NO WAY, GUGA!! You met the legendary Konishiki?! I'm so jealous! He was the heaviest rikishi of all time, nicknamed the "dump truck" and kicked butt back in the day! He is such an awesome guy, too. It's such a shame he never got to make yokozuna, the highest rank in professional sumo. Sumo is such a fascinating sport and I implore all of you to check it out. It's been gaining in popularity especially after the Sanctuary show dropped on Netflix! Thanks for the video, Guga!

[@shadowtheimpure]

Yeah, Konishiki got completely robbed. He won two back-to-back tournaments and the committee refused his deserved promotion. It was absolutely unfair.

[@jinxhead4182]

Me too, man.

[@mikeyjllewellyn]

@@shadowtheimpureif you watch sumo long enough, you can see how preferentially the native rikishi get treated. The best was when The Great Hakuho did a banzai with the crowd. The JSA hated that. He got in actual trouble.

​@vincentflannigan2727 if you need to ask any questions hit me up man. Always happy to help new sumo fans!

[@mattrodriguez6130]

I'm in awe of this episode. I've been a fan of Sumo for a few years now, and I'm a bit astounded that you got to meet a Sumo legend like Konishiki. That man went up against the likes of Akebono, Chiyonofuji, Musashimaru and many other greats. I'm glad they enjoyed the meat Fiesta you assembled for them!

[@Dephire]

Hell yeah, I loved this episode as well for the same reasons! I couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw the thumbnail. Guga and sumo together? It's like a dream! Awesome Tochinoshin profile pic, by the way!!

[@mattrodriguez6130]

@Dephire I'm right there with you! And I'm sad he retired, but after hearing the assessment he had with his coach, it only made sense. I enjoyed the times I got to watch his matches here on KZbin, though.

As I’ve always said since I started cooking professionally at 15. Food is the greatest international language. It doesn’t matter where someone’s from, or what language they speak. If you take the time to make food with emotion and appreciation, the person eating it will be able to understand and appreciate every little sentiment put into it through the flavor. No matter how pretty or plain it is. It’s the greatest gift you can give to another ❤ so great to see such amazing content and different people with amazing and different personalities and backgrounds to come together and share a meal like this

[@jbitt1617]

[@tanveersingh4147]

bro like u can genuinely see the sumo's faces light up when they eat the good stuff AKA EVERYTHING

[@fhertlein]

Love the fact that Guga used the oven. If you aren't doing a BBQ competition, once the smoke is done, finish the meat in the oven. Heat is consistent, a stall won't happen, and you save pellets/wood. Love the mango trees, which reminds me of an uncle's farm with so many fruit trees and I would just walk around picking fruit and eating. Very fun episode!

[@shabushabu1453]

I do it so I can sleep after smoking brisket all night.

[@Easy_Skanking]

The oven has nothing to do with a stall happening or not. Getting past the stall is one reason why we wrap. Unwrapped meat can stall no matter what it is cooked on. Aside from that, the oven is a good place to finish a wrapped BBQ meat. The only caveat is that your house will smell like BBQ for at least 24 hours.
