Time for one last round of ads before the final bout!


Higashi (East Side) top 3.


and the 3 Nishi (west side) leaders. It's amazing how graceful these huge men are!


Ama and Baruto face off. Ama is from Mongolia, and Baruto is from Estonia. Almost all Sumo wrestlers take on a "stage name" -- especially foreigners.
