The fact is that for every person there is something interesting in a particular sport.  Someone likes football, and someone cannot watch it.  Nevertheless, fans see something interesting in this and that is why even sumo is a very interesting sport for many people who do not even have much weight.  Lol

Some sports are region based and therefore they are not popular worldwide. Same is the case with Somo wrestling which is popular in japan only and therefore we do not see much discussion about it here. Even i think only local Japanese site may having betting for somo wrestling and we do not find any information related to betting on it anywhere else.

Hakuho lost at Nagoya!

Kakuryu wins 6th sumo title in Nagoya

Sumo yokozuna grand champion Kakuryu clinched his sixth title in Nagoya on Sunday, beating fellow grand champion Hakuho on the final day.

The two Mongolian top-ranked yokozuna wrestlers went head to head, and Kakuryu came out on top, forcing out Hakuho to seal his first title in seven tournaments.

He finished with 14 wins and one loss.

All four second-tier ozeki wrestlers sat out or pulled out of the tournament. It was the first time in decades that all ozeki wrestlers were absent from the ring on the final day.

Being fan doesn't have a weight requirement and I'm not from the base country where the sport originated but I do love watching videos about sumo.
Recently, I've seen a video that interviews a champion in sumo and it's more interesting because she's a woman so if ever there will be a casino that will list this sport I'd like to suggest them to do livestream if there is.

Yeah, everyone has different interest on games, that's why you could see majority of the people like football and the other ones don't like football, so same thing is happened in Sumo wrestling, even majority people know about it that it is entertaining sport, but they are not watching it or play it.
It's their own opinions and position regarding on how they will be entertained and how they will appreciate this type of game, if some still seeing entertainment but others are not and not paying attentions since they are not getting any good interest about the game.

Does anyone here do like or entertain SUMO WRESTLING?
Can we integrate it to blockchain and betting platforms?

The only one who can understand how entertaining it was to watch a SUMO WRESTLING is the one who is an enthusiast of it or living in a nearby place where the arena is easily accessible.

Simple as that as in my case, I'm not really enjoying watching sumo wrestling same with other sports I really don't follow like football, soccer, golf, tennis, etc.

People have different taste but in general, all sports are entertaining.

Can we integrate it to blockchain and betting platforms?

Integrating it directly to blockchain needs lots of works.

I think what you want to say is if any from the betting websites today will open a future bet for SUMO someday.

I tried checking for it on YouTube and even the few channels that shows it has few views which means the interest is not really that much.I think there are better games than to think of SUMO wrestling. Gambling has really upgraded more than this. If it’s so interesting, then let it be for to be offline and those who has interest in it will find a way to watch it.

I wouldn't say that sumo-oriented videos have just a few views. There are many videos with millions views, and the Doritos ad from the link below has 322 million views.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrmK0k0PN4c

If sumo was of no interest to anyone, Doritos wouldn't theme their story that way.

After some research I came to conclusion that sports betting platforms should at least try to accept bets on sumo events. If you will be one from only a few sites accepting such bets, chances are that you'll get thousands of new users.

Sumo wrestling was became an sport industry in Japan and i heard some of sumo wrestlers were have luxury life because the champion can earn a lot of money but this sport not good option to considering as sportbook feature because globally sumo will be lack of interest to bets and exception for Japan only because this is as sport legacy exist since hundreds of years ago
If there is an option to bet on the sumo game then more people will get interested on that too,think positively. Smiley

I don't think it will attract more people outside Japan. It only happens there and if people doesn't know the mechanics of that game or who has greater odds of winning then they won't have an interest to bet on sumo wrestling.
Gamblers are always ready to gamble on anything as long as it it pays them and I believe many gamblers would gladly bet on the game if it’s going to be profitable. SUMO is an interesting game and I believe the betting will also be. I would also be a part of it if I got the opportunity to do so.

I am not from Japan and same with so many of my friends but I always followed up with the wrestling on you tube channels and I find it quite interesting, so it believe if being integrated on blockchain, not only Japanese people will play. Definitely people from other countries who find it interesting will partake, after all some of the games we play with on casino sites do not exist in our country.
Don’t be deceived bro. Gamblers are very selective with game even though it looks like they play on all games for money, this is the reason some games on some casino sites are never played. Maybe I am the only one who does not find it interesting as it’s been portrayed by people I have come in contact with.

I only watched sumo wrestling on movies,but never seen on my TV and in any other YouTube channel I subscribed. So this shows that sumo wrestling is not much popular in my location but this is a good game to watch based on my experience on that movie so I will bet on that on that game is that is available too.

Because sumo wrestling is not too popular in other countries and it's only popular in Japan only. Perhaps, only Japanese people who place bets in sumo wrestling but if we know where the site which has these sports, we could try to place bets too. I think any sports game can give entertainment to people as long as they can enjoy sports and they know about this sport. No matter if we watch on the television, youtube channel or watching directly in the sumo tournament, we can try to get fun like the other people.

I guess if they will add it in the sports book, it would still benefit the sports book and they also help to introduce this kind of game.
They don't loss anything because as long as there are people who are betting on it, they make commissions on it, and Japan is a crypto friendly country.

That will help sumo wrestling to be known by many people because I think gambler will curious about the game and they will search for any information related to the game. And if they think that sumo wrestling sports worth to use as for bets and that sports could give entertain and people or gambler can get fun inside the game, they will place the bets on that game.

That will another income for the sports book because they can open new sports on their website which can attract more gambler to bets. And if the sports are really interesting, I am sure that it's no need to wait too long to see that sports will grow and popular among the gambler.

When I watch Sumo one time in our house, I'm a bit entertained but overall it is a bit boring because one match lasts only for a few seconds or 1 minute at most.
if the match lasts for 1 minute or less then its not boring  . the real boring is when the match takes too long to finish like boxing for example most match of boxing last 12 rounds and to be honest i find boxing boring especially if i dont know the fighters  .

Maybe for some it is entertaining for some reasons. I think there are some gambling sites that also have Sumo betting don't they??
yes it is some people loves sumo wrestling and they support it too much while some are dont  . there are gambling sites for sumo but they arent popular  .

Not much of fighting and yet I feel the entertainment on that sports and I believe its already a culture that we can't erase from today's generation. Maybe a few are interested to watch the fight because of not so extreme fighting, but this kind of wrestling is classic and until now it brings fun to me as always.

Well we have different likes and dislikes but whatever we do, we do it for love of entertainment. Most likely as I have stated above in my thread that this sport is one of a kind and is not common to every kombat sports I have ever known.

Just try to watch sumo wrestling of a certain event and then ask oneself if it is not really that interesting.
I didn’t disagree with you. It is entertaining. For me, it’s like a lost art in the World today. As I see it, less and fewer people are talking about it. Maybe they are just not exposed anymore, or it's the way they wanted it. There is no social media attention of that too, AFAIK.

Do you want to participate in a sport like that? I think you have to increase your weight a lot if you wanted to. This reminds me of Ganryu in Tekken. Lol.

I only saw sumo wrestling in television but I don't watch it but I like it before. But it's entertaining because when I watch sumo wrestling I can make me happy. I think sumo wrestling use as betting who win between the two person I saw a lot of big 2 guys are participating in each round I think this game is originally came from the country of Japan.

It's a cultured based sport so it's not very popular in the west. They just consider those sports that are not culture based and capable for all of the people in the world. Sumo wrestling is just entertainment for them.
At least the world knows about it but the way i see this kind of match is just like a tournament that's not meant for Olympics yet they know about it. Although it is not that really designed for the Olympics since it is more about grappling the opponent and it does really belong to the entertainment showbiz.

but it's pretty fun, like a boxing game you will see each player drop each other and that is a entertaining show. yeah unfortunately the match about sumo is not so popular and then there aren't many TV shows about sumo, even I don't know any sumo players lol

I remember watching Sumo Wrestling on the television when I was in Singapore. TV has those sports channels, and some of them were fun, like football. I pressed the next channel button on the remote, and I found myself watching them. It's like amazing to see how they are so big and preventing themselves to not go out Of the line. I think of how are they able to maintain, and are they still healthy? I don't know much about it, but it intrigued my brain.

I wouldn't be able to participate in that kind of sport unless it's going to be in gaming consoles or what not. Lol.

I did not see any threads related to SUMO WRESTLING and I have been seeing that SUMO WRESTLING is a good sport. Every players are eager to win and the results could.be predictable unless those who had made some fights already and becoming a veteran. Yet, they too still lose.

The sports has lots of excitement especially that the players had different approach, styles, technique and ability. The better also strategy that a player will make the better chance of winning the match.

Does anyone here do like or entertain SUMO WRESTLING?
Can we integrate it to blockchain and betting platforms?
First time i heard about it was in street fighter with Honda  Tongue
The game does not look bad but I believe not everyone is enjoying to see two 10XL males fighting..
I read an article few months ago about how the number of sumo players from Japan are becoming less and less important comparing with players from other nations. I don't recall it exactly but that's what I remember learning. I will pass with the health issues..
For the betting platforms I believe it can work in Japan but for sure it will not be as profitable for bookies around the world.

I used to love watching sumo. They used to broadcast it on Eurosport but it's not that popular at all.
Same with me. It was one of the most interesting games I liked to watch on channels then and   I liked how fat the participants would always look. On many occasions I watched it with my family and my dad had his favorite fighters.

But as time passed, it became less interesting with many contradictions. One time there was rumor of how the results are being manipulated, and other times I learnt existing players started to pull out and stop playing, don’t really have the reason for that and since it’s a game not everyone can play because of the weight of players, the exit of one player would definitely have a great impact in the game. Integrating SUMO wrestling would be a very good development, considering that it was a very popular and many players would be glad to partake on the online version.

I don't know about you guys but what I like in sumo wrestling was just when these sumo wrestlers bouncing their fats onto each other. I really like that, I mean, I was just searching for fun in every sports and that's the fun I liked in sumo wrestlers. But the sports I like are sports I always do. So, Sumo wrestling is not at the top of my list.

As a kid when I watched Sumo wrestling on television I was stunned to see them wrestle each other, and how can I forget thier bouncing fat it was hilarious. This sport does not have fans outside Japan, and I don’t recollect any efforts done by them to make this a global sport. I would not be comfortable in betting on their matches because it can be very unpredictable due to their size, also not even sure if any sportsbook accepts bet on them.
