A Japanese competitive wrestling sport where a wrestler attempts to force another wrestler either down to the ground or out of a circular ring. It is considered the national sport of Japan.

Traditional sumo wrestler, or rikishi (力士), typically features heavy yet muscular build (that is often mistakenly believed or depicted as being fat or obese), and is wearing chonmage hair and mawashi during the match.
