It's incredible how you single-handedly sparked interest in sumo for so many people, and you absolutely excelled, dude. Forget about coming in second. Just having the courage to stand before these giants and fight them makes you a force to be reckoned with, as well as one of them. Be proud, big boy.
Next time, they'll kiss the Dohyō first.
I knew nothing about it until Seth started making videos and now I would totally give it a try
bro legit, me and my friends all started our own sumo club at school its sick as. the school hasnt approved yet but we all have like times were we just wrestle and shit
@@River-Personhell yeah
@@River-PersonThis!!! Those are the stories that would melt Seth’s heart! Let him see this comment!!!!!
@@MartialAlexLe hopefully he could read it, you know how sick it would be if he just rocked up to our school and taught us and shit since we all massive fans of him that’s literally a dream come true. Hopefully we can turn this rope circle we wrestle in into an actual thing
Shalan's final boss energy is off the charts! I'm sure you learned so much from this experience, though. You'll get the gold soon! Ossu!
Yeah, he had Seth figured out totally. No surprise I guess.
lol you nailed it, that dude's whole atmosphere was 'unplayable boss character designed to chew your quarters'
And the subtle menacing smile.
why did the judges think edebo lost that first loss?
Zero shame losing to Ōsunaarashi
Saying that guy is “just” a pro is a huge understatement. I looked him up, expecting to see a peek of juryu or sth.
No. Maegashira 1. And he beat Harumafuji. Twice. Three gold stars overall.
So yeah… if this guy can beat a Yokuzuna, no shame in not standing a chance.
Ōsunaarashi also did not retire due to injury or age, he was forced out in a driving scandal (rikishi are not allowed to drive cars and he wrecked while driving) so we are talking about a former Juryo division champion, highest rank of M1, with 3 kinboshi who is still only 31, and honestly he has maintained his weight well in retirement, so this is a guy still in or near his prime with a ton of sumo experience and technique. No shame in not beating him, cant wait to see you back after some more training.
guy went easy on the tachiai as well.
Yeah this tournament was probably child's play for him lol.
Dude, the way Edabo cheered for you RIGHT AFTER you beat him is amazing. Good teammate.
Especially after he got robbed in the first loss. Seems like a good dude
Buddy, I hope you don't actually feel too bad about the second place thing. You spend time on SO many other things; you don't live, eat and breathe sumo like some of these guys. You probably beat people that have spent way more time practicing sumo and I think that's amazing.
Yeah, and that second guy Abdelrahman Shalan (Ōsunaarashi Kintarō) was apparently really good before injuries ended his sumo career.
I can't wait for *Sumo Seth 3: Third Time's the Charm.*
But seriously... your sumo vids are some of my alltime favorite content on RUclips.
shut up
No I want to try Korean wrestling. Similar to sumo. And also try swiss wrestling. Similar to sumo but also have the pinfall.
Hey Seth, it was great to meet you! I had a lot of fun refereeing your bouts, especially the one against Thomas and the semi-final against Hayden, I had to get almost all the way to the ground to see who touched first. Very impressive showing and hope to see you somewhere on the circuit again soon! Ganbare from the New York Sumo Club!
You did a great job!! Thanks for reffing!
The quality of this video is insane. Well done Seth, this is such inspirational stuff. Really love how you’ve been diving into competitive content on the channel. As a hobbyist martial artist who competes for the love of competition and the martial arts, you embody so much of what that demographic experiences. Not to mention the quality and care into the production of these videos. The cuts between yourself and your teammate training in the past as you were preparing for your match genuinely gave me chills. Oss
I really appreciate this 🙏🙏
This is some of the absolute best content on RUclips.
No clickbait, no hot girls, no flashy cars.
Just an honest guy working his ass of, for something he is very passionate about
10/10 Seth
I'm sorry you didn't get the gold but with how incredible you performed your a gold medalist in our hearts 😊
YES! More Sumo content from Sensei Seth! I've only just started this video, but I'm going to say yes, I have faith that you can win this tournament. You have become very good at Sumo in a relatively short amount of time, so I have faith in your abilities.
MAN! I was literally cheering out loud for you watching this video. Congratulations on the hard fought 2nd
Dude, that was quite the spoilerific comment you left! 👏👏👏
@@luisgomez8635 don't read comments for these types of videos until youve watched them then
@@chattah_Dont post spoilers guys. Bunch of douches
me too man
@@chattah_bro i’m on mobile and it shows the top comment
I gotta say: Sumo is such a blast to spectate!
Congrats for your awesome performance! The winner in the end seemed to be crazy confident and skilled.
The dude you faced in the final was calm like a tiger, so intimidating
Didn't think I would yell out screaming during a prerecorded competition but here we are. Good job in some well earned victories. Can't wait to see how much further you can go.
Congrats, Seth! I know silver isn't good enough for you, but your fans are extremely proud of you, so hopefully that counts for something. You have earned the gold medal for your achievements throughout life in general, which is even more impressive. So keep winning, my dude.
Dang man. This doesn't seem like your typical "I trained sumo for two weeks" RUclips video. You're legit. I think you have a real shot at making a go at this if you keep going.
Aye!
That's a FIRST CLASS BOOTAY!!!!!
AND CAN'T NOBODY COMPETE WITH THAT GLAZED HAM YOU LET US PEEK AT!!!
AND FOR THAT, WE THANK YOU, SETH!!!!
YOU'LL ALWAYS BE #1 WITH US!!!!!
That’s a bit weird to me that they allow former pro’s to compete. He (Osunaraashi) even beat Yokozuna on three separate occasions, back when he used to compete in Japan.
I am loving how theres more videos with some personal stakes, tournaments, promotion test, heights. The editing of the video has been around drama and the journey has picked up around it too. Makes for some great watching! String of 1st place, and Thailand soon!
That match against the GIANT man in the open weight finals was EPIC. That's a lifetime highlight for sure.
Let's go! Season 2 of my favorite anime!!!
I wish i was as strong as you man, silver in an openweight sumo competition while not being on the heaviest division is alot!
6:38 the inside foot sweep is phenomenal
What an honor to be able to wrestle against the former Ōsunaarashi. To feel the caliber of a top division Pro rikishi (even if retired for a few years) is an experience few armature sumo get.
Let's GOOOOO Seth!!! It's only a matter of time
Hell yeah, another sumo video! As a huge fan of it, I'm so thankful that you've made this a recurring series of videos, Seth. You've garnered so much attention and put so many new eyes on the misunderstood sport that is sumo. The more you get into sumo, the further you go down the rabbit hole of knowledge that there is to gain on it. Currently, the Kyushu 2023 Grand Sumo tournament is undergoing over in Fukuoka, Japan - if this video has sparked the interest of any of you, then I highly recommend jumping aboard the sumo train and start watching it! Or better yet, join a local sumo club if there is one near you and start learning it!
Sensei, I love your drive, your heart, your passion to be number one. You may not have gotten first place and that sucks, but were you beaten? Are you gonna give up now? How many times will you have to not win for you to give up? I don't think quit is in your vocabulary sir. It may not mean much, but you are first place for a lot of us that love you and your content. Thanks for the smiles, smarts, and giving me someone to cheer for. God bless.
15:40 I don't sumo, but good strategy keeping him in the middle of the ring and making him take a knee instead of fighting for who can move whom out. When they say use the opponent's weight against him, can't be more literal.
Kinda amazed that former Oosunaarashi is still allowed at amateur tournaments after recent events (I don't follow amasumo closely but it seemed like he was one of the big reasons for a major setback for sumo and misconduct)
You didn't take first. You know that. Use that to drive you into your future.
You did not perform dishonorably, let that hold your head high.
Together with your honor and shame, you will let them both be your fuel to become #1
Glad you could make it out! Sorry we all died of the flu that weekend. Hope to see you again for future Orlando Sumo/Backhold/insert crazy combat sport here_____. 😅
this was an absolute joy to watch! I had started watching grand sumo just a few months before you did your first coverage on the sport and I was overjoyed by both the reception the video got and your own incredible efforts in the sport
more sumo plz, this was super exiting #lovesumo
Maaaayte, definitely checking this in a minute. 💯 I've entered my first Eskrima tournament which is tomorrow! Wish me luck, hombres! 😁😁😁
Loving the Sumo content!! Keep it coming! Congratulations on some outstanding results your first year into a new sport! That’s nothing to shake a stick at!
I love your sumo videos! It's a tough sport, and it's impressive to see how quickly you got good at it!
Very impressive!! Your discipline at 13:08 was remarkable!
The fandom for Osunaarashi is what got me into sumo, if you can believe it. So cool to see you against him here.
Proud of you brother!
That warning around 11:12 was a quite cheeky. But, I can get behind a your sense of humor.
Let's get ready to rrruuuuuumpppppp!!!!!
That was one of the most intense, most emotional, adrenaline-driven videos i've seen in a very long time. Absolute respect Seth! Absolute respect!
There's worse things out there than losing to a pro/ringer. Its like sparring with the teacher of another school. If you last long enough to face a Sensei, that's a testament to your talent, my friend.
There was a rikishi who became a Yokozuna without ever winning a tournament so you're doing fine Seth! Love seeing Edabo's enthusiasm every time you wrestled (against other people) the guy was an absolute champion in his own right!
why did the judges think edebo lost that first loss?? the other guy's elbow hits first
I still say sumo content is best content. Congratulations on two more medals on your path to gold!
And the second match in open where you where both going down and you realized and pulled everything up so as to hit second was magical. I salute your awareness there!
All the more motivation to work even harder man. You did great, and you got me into sumo, so congratulations! You’re taking gold eventually, just keep on working 🎉
Don't be sad.
The legendary martial artist Son Goku also got second place in his first 2 tournaments.
Freakin awesome Seth! You’re a true martial artist and we are super proud of your hard work!
Your Sumo videos are my favourite. Gold will come!
I started watching sumo 2 years ago and literally noone watches it or can share my spark in this phenomenal sport. I was so stoked watching u doing sumo ❤❤❤ hakkeyo!
Seth I feeeeel you so much! I got a drawer of not first medals too! But you did great brother! But I get it. Especially when you were the one to "throw" the winner outthe ring.
Plus very exciting video! I was actually cheering everytime you won.. Keep up the good work and never give up!
Dude, I know this feeling so well. I live my whole life in this space. If it makes any difference, your Sumo videos are really life-affirming to me right now. I know it might be difficult to make you feel any better about this but... butt... I forgot where I was going with this.
I’ve been a fan for awhile but man I’m just blown away with the quality coming from your videos. As someone who loves martial arts and their weird variations you have really put an interest of sumo in me. Please continue being awesome and trying new things because you are one of the most entertaining people on the internet.
Thank you for what you have done to bring attention to this great sport.
Congratulations on medaling again. Just getting off the couch to train is huge, then competing on top of that is even harder. But competing and putting it on the internet in front of a large audience is a kind of bravery most people of us don't have. You're doing good work and inspiring people to train hard and have fun. Wishing you continuing success!
What a nice video ! You did incredible and your teamates are gold ! I was so happy to see osunaarashi again. He seems to doing well !
Seth your Sumo content has come to be the thing I look forward to most, and has introduced me to a new sport for me to love. Coming in second can suck but holy crap you’re the gold for all of us!
So good. It's so quick it must be impossible to think. Pure instinct.
Seth is making sumo cool and useful. Good job, sensei. Bring old traditional eastern style to coolness.
Wishing you best in your sumo career
"I don't know why, but when I was flying, on the plane, I got nerves. And not good nerves. Bad nerves."
Yeah, it actually happens a lot when you fly Spirit.
You are a window into Sumo for the western world Seth. You faced off against a former division 1 wrestler who has KINBOSHI wins (that's wins over an active grand champion Yokozuna for anyone who doesn't know). It's an achievement in itself to go up against someone like that. Keep trying, keep pushing in Sumo Seth. You will win one of these tournaments. Hakkeyoi! ps If you ever find yourself in Japan see if you can't pay a visit to a Sumo Stable? Depending on the stable, they would most likely be receptive!
I'm loving your Sumo content. You keep up the training and your going to start winning gold with style.
that was a fantastic video. I was nailed to my sit for it. So intense, energetic and FUN❤💪
Watching you go through your martial arts journey has been a thrill to watch. You are the living definition of a true martial artist. Never stop, Sensei!
THE BUTT CHEEK DISCLAIMER HAD ME LMFAO i love u seth u are a gem to the world
Your sumo content is my favorite. I love seeing you compete in so thing you love. Oh yeah don't forget to do a kendo video for me man. I want to see you in some armor competeing
Coach Ramsey once said "You've got to be the guy who thinks 'I WANT IT MORE!'"
as a casual Sumo fan.. I appreciate you doing this..
Holy shit dude, you fought Ōsunaarashi! No wonder you could not do much. Still fighting an ex-Makuuchi is quite an achievement.
This was AWESOME! I am really enjoying your sumo journey. Have considered spending some time at a sumo stable (beya) in Japan? That would be next level. Cheers!
Yo seth, second is pretty awesome. You got serious sumo skills, keep it up and you'll find gold in no time!
Congratulations! Keep up the training with your stable and the pro's!
Your Sumo (among all the other arts you do) shows so much about the kind of person, athlete, and martial artist you are. Keep up the awesome work Seth!
Love this so much. Would be so down for this sport if i was not old and busted now.
Seth, I really happy for you! Sumo is what you clearly enjoy just doing. Whatever the result, that is what actually is important. Thanks for sharing with us
Man this video has me hyped! It’s awesome to see someone work through the struggles.
I love the amount of passion you put in to this. Though you came in second, you gave it one hell of a shot and did incredibly despite the odds.
Congratulations, this was a very impressive win. I enjoy all your content, but your Sumo videos are excellent. Keep up the good work.
I love how your friends cheered you. There is something so child-like and pure in the way they jumped up and down to cheer you
I wasn't the only one calling out "Hakkeyoi!" and "Taga taga taga taa!" while watching this, was I?
The word is "Nokotta" meaning "still in" 😊
That would propably be more for the Reacts-channel, but I would love for Seth to do some commentary during the O-sumo basho every two months
if you even go to japan, try visiting the guys teaching syuutetsu and isujikuho (chair axis).
they may be able to improve your sumo tech, and general ones too.
I'm not convinced this isn't a well crafted and extremely eloquent way to boast about your incredible achievement (two silvers!) without coming off as bragging. Well done mate congrats!
Congrats Seth..Ediboro or edoboro(sry) jumps runs around every time Seth wins a fight in every video I've seen it and that is awesome what a friend to have
Man this is awesome. The respect they show after the fight, Sumo is great.
And you did really well. If you pack on some muscle you would probably be even better. You move very well.
you did great sensei seth, you are still new to the sport and got nothing to be ashamed of.. good shit
Rikishi Seth once again! I love it!
It's interesting how the game seems to almost become less physical the higher up in skill level you go. Lots of big spectacular tackles, pushes, leg reaps in the lower brackets, but when you wrestle the champion after you lock up it looks like he just steps out of the way and lets you fall on your hands. I'm sure there was way more to it than that but it's fascinating to watch.
Que genial es ponerse a prueba, más aún cuando estás fuera de tu zona de confort 🫶🏻
Nada de que sentirse apenado !
Mucho cariño y aprecio desde México
That was some really good competition there. Congrats on getting as far as you did. You showed some really good situational awareness in your semi final open match.
Bro keep at it, love watching your progress
Amazing production quality on this video man! Great sumo too
Seth these videos of you trying different martial arts are awesome thank you for casting light on all these martial arts for the younger generation!!
Im glad you kept doing sumo! You are a natural at it. Just thr fact you keep placing in all the events iver people that have been doing this for way longer is amazing. Also you got to wreslte a pro! Thats so cool
Dude! You have so many incredible skill sets over so many martial arts disciplines, you should do professional MMA in the heavyweight division! No MMA heavyweight can move like you!
Your teammates absoluteley popping off in the back at 15:35 is so good. Gotta get hype for your bros.
I'm just shocked at how much Seth has improved in such a short time at a sport he started this late in life.
Bro, amazing. Just amazing.
That's semi-finals fight was awesome. Editing of this video was also great, loved the build up in various areas.
You’re awesome! Congrats!
