fight for japan: ~ULTIMATE SUMO CHAMPIONSHIP ~

FRIDAY FUN

Sumo tournament featuring champions from MMA, K-1, boxing, body building, pro wrestling etc etc

im liking the new take on the old UFC logo



first there was the preliminary tournament:

notice the referee from K1 lol

Razor Ramon HG (hard-gay) vs Shinji Takehara (Former WBA Middleweight champion)

Bobby Ologun vs Nagatomo (Mystery man of samoa)

final


heres the PRIDE FC style opening for the main tournament(complete with PRIDE FC music)...they also got all the other sound effects form pride. I think the competitors are revealed as they are announced which explains the shock reactions from the crowd.



competitors:


1. Manabu Nakanishi : The former IWGP Heavyweight champion
2. Charles Kent Wilson : The most dangerous SUMO wrestler (Judo 5-dan)
3. Hayato "Mach" Sakurai : The former shooto middleweight champion

5. Daichi Hashimoto : New Japan Pro-Wrestling
6. HIRO : The formar SUMO wrestler (Jyoni-dan)
7. Semmy Schilt : K1 WGP 2005,6,7,9 Champion
8. Bobby Ologun : Talent K-1 PREMIUM 2005,6 Dynamite (winner of preliminary tournament)

winner faces Akebono : The 64th YOKOZUNA

You legend Chesty

Go Semmy!!!
That is bonkers.

Brilliant! Schilt looks very lean stil, I think he was down to 280-290 recently? Wonder if he can make 265 and get back to UFC?

Mach winning the tournament would rock!

Supprised Sapp isnt in it!

Nice 1 Chesty,

The anticipations killing me,when do we get to see the final rds?

i'll post them here as and when they are uploaded

Mach is a mean bastard ..just grabbing he old guy by the throat. Some of those contests are surprisingly entertaining

here is the semi finals and final.

not such great fights as the quarters though
1.Semmy Schilt vs Daichi Hashimoto (who actually won his match against the body builder by a total fluke/rookie error on the other guys part)
2,Hayato "Mach" Sakurai vs Manabu Nakanishi (pro wrestler)



final:



The winner goes on to face Akebono.

The referee should have reset that. They were out of synch at the tachi-ai.

Schilt was robbed.

I don't know the details of Sumo rules but i wouldnt argue with Kakuda anyway

actually there is an idea...Football needs more hardman referees to players don't whine and moan about stuff.
