Sumo matches take place in a ring called a dohyō (土俵). The dohyō is made of a mixture of clay and sand spread over the top. It is between 34 and 60 cm high. It is removed after each sumo tournament, and in the case of Nagoya, pieces are taken home by the fans as souvenirs. A new dohyō is built prior to each tournament by the yobidashi, who are responsible for this activity. The yobidashi also build the dohyō for training stables and sumo touring events.

Oh yeah. Head gear. Three 1 minute rounds. 16 oz. gloves. Winner gets the money. Everyone else gets nothing, not even a free t-shirt. They are usually a 2 night event with the prelims on Friday and finals on Saturday. Usually a friggin money machine for the promoters because all they have to do is pay $1000 or so to the winner of each weight class. Used to be very popular in my area, but were banned after a few people got seriously hurt. One was killed even in the state. They did an investigation and found out that the ring doctor was a friggin chiropractor. Entered once, won Friday, lost Saturday. Just kind of a personal challenge. Is the promoter named Art Dorr by any chance? Anyways, very little skill involved in most of these. Hardly ever see a jab. Mostly just wild haymakers that ocassionaly land and someone gets ko'd. All the drunks roar with bloodlust and about a dozen fights break out in the stands. Good times!

Sumo is ok but I don't really prefer it ...

In a real boxing match, yes. Marciano is a boxer, Tyson is a street fighter.

Mike Tyson did not plan to fight in the PRIDE FC which is Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) meaning it includes groundfighting, submission techniques etc. \n\nHowever he was bragging about 2 years ago to sign for a series of matches in Japanese fighting organisation K-1 which by that time was stand-up styles only. His opponent back then would have been NFL player turned brawler Bob Sapp. Tyson was in attendance of Sapp's matches but never fought. Contractual as well as medical reasons kept that fight from taking place.\n\nI hope I could help you..

well,\n\nguys like Ad Santel,Lou Thesz,Ed Lewis,Martian Burns,Karl Gotch,Antonio inoki,Sotorou Sayama,Yoshiaki Fujiwara,Akira Maeda,Masakatsu Funaki,Minoru Suzuki,Kazushi Sakuraba,the list is plain endless,have pioneered the Mixed Martial Arts scene,these are legendary pro wrestlers,by the way.\n\nProfessional wrestling is "worked', so an entertaining show can be provided and the "fighters"(as they're called in japan) can work upto 60-200 times an year.If anyone fights for real 60-200 times an year they'll well,die.\n\nThe thing you have to acknowledge is........these guys are legit fighters versed in submission holds,throws,ground movements,positioning etc. The difference between them and any other martial artist is of pure conditioning(working 60-200 times an year,travelling for 250 days,all those hardcore matches don't exactly help). \n\nIn Fact, Professional wrestling has stood taller than Aikido,hapkido,kung Fu,jeet Kune Do,Sumo,Boxing,karate,ninjitsu etc. in the mixed martial arts scene\n\nThe art of original "hooking and shooting" was so dangerous that it lead to working of matches to protect the representatives of the territories, this art has been revived and the shoot aspect been combined with striking to form shoot wrestling((a.k.a PANCRASE, SHOOT Fighting, HYBRID WRESTLING, SHOOT BOXE, FREE FIGHT,CSW ETC..) one of the three most powerful systems in Mixed Martial Arts(other two being BJJ and Amature Wrestling).\n\nPro wrestling is worked but the men train in moves that would break another man in seconds.Even at it's weakest and most humiliating phase(the current one) professional wrestling has representatives like Kazushi Sakuraba,Kiyoshi Tamura,Ishihusa Minowa,Fujita,Josh Barnett,Shinsuke Nakamura,Naoya Ogawa,Hirotaka Yoko,again the list is endless ,to reprensent the craft in mixed martial arts with great sucsess........plus students of shoot wrestling like Ken Shamrock(originally a pro wrestler for ACW and UWF before UFC1) and Bart Vale(a three year champ of the professional wrestling fujiwara gumi promotion) are legends as trainers/originators of hybrid fighting systems and martial arts organisations.

Yankees.\n\nMy great grandfather used to hang around with Rocky Marciano (boxer).  They'd go to games "back in the day".  My dad had the opportunity to try out back in the 50's, went into the US Army and did 2 tours in Japan instead.
