Thank you very much.
00:30.0
Do a face-off here.
00:32.7
Ayaya!
00:47.4
For interviews or media,
00:49.8
right over here, right here, please feel free
00:52.1
to come up and speak to our
00:53.9
athletes. Not only are they great athletes,
00:56.3
but they're smart, they're
00:57.9
communicative, and they love sumo.
00:59.7
So, uh...
01:01.7
It's a dream
01:05.9
come true. All athletes from a young
01:07.8
age, we've all had that dream. We've all
01:09.8
watched some kind of event at Madison Square
01:11.8
Garden, and it just means the world to us.
01:14.3
So it's a, yeah, literally a dream come
01:15.9
true. As you're walking through the doors, you're getting chills
01:17.9
as you pull up to the arena. It just
01:19.7
gets your blood pumping, your adrenaline starts
01:21.6
pushing. It's amazing.
01:28.5
360
01:28.9
points.
01:29.7
8 pounds.
01:32.6
Firing off, learning
01:33.7
how to really control my body, trying
01:35.7
to stay low, doing low walks and low
01:37.8
movements to try to get comfortable
01:39.7
in my hips. So, it's all,
01:41.8
it all kind of ties into each other.
01:43.7
Our goal as the athlete
01:45.2
is to try to take the best of what we got
01:47.8
and be able to use it on the game day.
01:50.4
I've been in this kind of
01:51.6
realm competing and pushing
01:53.8
in the trenches of football
01:55.4
for a long time, so maybe getting the move
01:57.8
to sumo just seemed very natural,
01:59.7
effortless.
02:02.4
362 pounds.
02:05.4
Next,
02:05.9
all the way from Brazil.
02:08.6
The credential center was
02:09.7
sold out, 5K, so
02:11.7
people know exactly, like, what is sumo
02:13.8
now. In my IG, I have
02:15.5
280K. Most of them are Americans.
02:18.5
So, people know exactly
02:19.7
what a sumo is, and if they don't know,
02:22.0
they can understand that the thing
02:23.7
is happening in Madison Square Garden.
02:25.4
Grief plays for grief fights, just only for grief fights.
02:29.2
368
02:29.7
pounds.
02:37.0
We now welcome...
02:39.0
Trust yourself. Because
02:41.0
in sumo, in one match,
02:43.3
the fight is very, very fast.
02:45.9
You need
02:46.6
a good mentality, because
02:48.8
your mentality is more important
02:51.2
in the match.
02:54.3
One
02:54.6
fight, one match, during
02:57.0
three, five,
02:59.7
maximum
03:00.7
50 seconds.
03:04.5
You need
03:05.6
trust yourself, one strong
03:08.0
mentality.
03:10.1
You have to be willing to put the effort
03:12.2
down. Whatever it takes, I'm gonna do it.
03:13.9
I'm gonna be the champion.
03:23.8
356.4 pounds.
03:26.5
Let's go, baby! Let's go, baby!
03:29.7
They look great.
03:31.8
Yeah, they're awesome athletes.
03:34.0
They know how to fall, which makes
03:35.8
our job much easier. They're all pretty
03:37.7
healthy, despite what we came in
03:39.6
thinking. So, they're looking
03:41.8
good, they're ready to fight, and put on a great show.
03:45.5
344
03:46.0
pounds.
03:49.7
The most objective measures that we have are,
03:51.8
of course, their vitals. We take that, make sure they're
03:53.6
within range and safe for them.
03:55.6
Their cardiac health is safe
03:57.5
for them to compete and fight.
03:59.7
We then do a musculoskeletal
04:01.7
exam, make sure all those joints, muscles, and everything
04:03.8
is moving the way it should be,
04:05.5
and no injuries on record. So,
04:07.8
they're all doing great, no history of head
04:09.7
injuries, no musculoskeletal
04:12.0
issues or cardiac issues. So,
04:13.8
we're confident it's gonna be a safe and healthy fight.
04:18.8
375 pounds.
04:22.5
Let's go!
04:26.1
First time.
04:29.7
We define a healthy weight as the weight that
04:44.5
you are, as long as all your vitals are good, your
04:46.4
labs look good, and, you know,
04:48.6
your heart, again, and your
04:49.8
musculoskeletal system are functioning and doing
04:52.4
what they should be. So, that
04:54.1
defines a healthy weight, and these guys are
04:56.1
numbers higher than we're used to on the scale,
04:58.6
but we have to look at the impact.
04:59.7
Objective things. Is their heart
05:01.7
healthy? Is everything functioning
05:03.7
the way it should? Are all their limbs moving
05:05.8
the way they should? And these guys are
05:07.1
really great athletes and have proven
05:09.6
they are through their physicals.
05:14.9
396.6
05:16.5
321.2
05:21.7
321.2
05:22.4
239 pounds.
05:29.7
Let's go!
05:42.7
242.6
05:45.7
It's a combat sport. So, definitely,
05:47.7
there is that impact. We've seen head injuries.
05:49.7
Not as severe, of course, as boxing
05:51.7
and other combat sports we've been involved in.
05:53.7
But they're getting thrown down on the mat.
05:55.7
There is stress on their back. All of their
05:57.7
joints twisting their knees, and some of them
05:59.7
moving. The way that they reach over one
06:01.7
another. We see a lot of shoulder injuries
06:03.7
as well. But again, these athletes
06:05.7
are so talented. They know how to move. They
06:07.7
know how to fall. So, they really know how to
06:09.7
keep themselves healthy. It makes our job easier.
06:12.7
And make sure
06:14.7
you're gonna be ready.
06:16.7
What do you got special for him?
06:18.7
What kind of move? What kind of move?
06:20.7
I'm gonna surprise him this time. You can't give it away?
06:22.7
Yes. He knows the matador
06:24.7
and all those things I did before
06:26.7
to him. And I wanna make sure
06:28.7
he's gonna be ready this time.
06:30.7
Everybody knows that I don't wait
06:32.7
for what my opponent is gonna do.
06:34.7
I go inside the ring.
06:36.7
Good morning, guys. Good morning.
06:58.7
Good morning.
