When two massive men collide at full speed, however, things tend to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Case in point: the match shown in the video above, which pits the 319-pound Musashikuni Mamu against the 242-pound\u00a0Tomisakae Ryutaro.<\/p>\n<p>In this contest,\u00a0Musashikuni quickly sends his smaller foe careening to the ground with a forearm to the face. Though it may come as a surprise, this strike is actually allowed by the sumo ruleset. As <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sumoforum.net\/glossary.html\" target=\"_blank\">sumoforum.net<\/a> explains, the technique, which is called a <em>kachiage<\/em>, allows a sumoist to unsettle their <em>aite<\/em>&#8216;s (opponent&#8217;s) stance by &#8220;landing powerful thrusts with bent arms onto his chin and upper torso.&#8221; In this case,\u00a0Musashikuni&#8217;s <em>kachiage<\/em> turned his foe&#8217;s lights out.<\/p>\n<p>After being sent to the ground by this strike,\u00a0Tomisakae attempts to regain his footing, but is unable to do so, as he is still rattled from\u00a0Musashikuni&#8217;s <em>kachiage<\/em>. Needless to say, sumo can be an extremely brutal combat sport, though it is not often credited as such.<\/p>\n<p>Given the inherently brutal nature of sumo, you might be wondering why we don&#8217;t see more sumoists make the jump to mixed martial arts. Well, while this a relatively rare occurrence, it has happened before.<\/p>\n<p>The most recent, and arguably most high profile instance of sumo practitioner making the jump to mixed martial arts has occurred under the <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/shane-carwin\/brackets-set-rizins-openweight-grand-prix-2\/\">Rizin Fighting Federation<\/a> banner, where Estonian sumo star Kaido Hoovelson \u2013 better known by the nickname &#8220;Baruto&#8221; \u2013 has gone 3-1 as a pro mixed martial artist.<\/p>\n<p>In his first MMA bout, Baruto defeated kickboxing legend Peter Aerts by unanimous decision. In his next two fights, he captured decision wins over Japanese veterans Kazuyuki Fujita and Tsuyoshi &#8220;TK&#8221; Kosaka. In his most recent bout, however, he was crumpled by a knee to the body dealt by <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/mirko-cro-cop\/mirko-cro-cop-retires-mma\/\">retired MMA legend Mirko &#8220;Cro Cop&#8221; Filipovic<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think of this walk-off KO in the sumo\u00a0<em>dohy\u014d<\/em>?
