If you’re not familiar with sumo this is a great video to watch, it’s a summary of all the top action of the day and the commentary is in English.

If there are words you don’t recognize…

• some words refer to the sumo wrestler’s ranking: yokozuna, ozeki, sekiwake, komosubi and finally maegashira (which also have numbers.) These rankings change after every tournament. See the current rankings.
• the rankings are different from the tournament’s leaderboard.
• other words like yorikiri and oshitaoshi refer to the techniques used. There’s a lot of pushing, tripping, and throwing!
• finally there are various other terms bc this endeavor has been around for several centuries.
