Like the TFC?
*edit*
I mis-read (saw 4 guys at once), leaving video up because why not.
Wtf is This?
No way that would ever be licensed in North America.
I would watch though

And that's a good reason to keep the limit?How many current UFC heavyweights actually cut to 265?

I ask seriously do you have any sources for this? A top heavyweight striker just circles until there’s an opening and unloads. But I think I just got trolled as I was writing this. Good one if so.Yes
UFC fighters are ducking Sumo rasslers
The real best base for fight
It shows the limit does fuck all anyway so might as well scrap itAnd that's a good reason to keep the limit?
He might have been trolling you but here's the source anyway. This is the sumo wrestler's MMA debut.I ask seriously do you have any sources for this? A top heavyweight striker just circles until there’s an opening and unloads. But I think I just got trolled as I was writing this. Good one if so.

Top heavyweight strikers think they know how to circle, and it might work against Judo players but sumo wrestlers were raised in a circle.
Baruto didn’t circle at all so I don’t see your point. And the octagon is a much bigger circle than the sumo. He walked straight into a bigger dude so he could be easily be taken down. Sumo man couldn’t get his hands on JDS, Fedor, Stipe, Cain crocop or any decent Hw striker like that. Fuckin Roy Nelson works this dude on the feet.They’d all drop bombs and avoid a TD/clinch with even basic footwork and strategy.
Too many circle puns. Roundly trolled again.My point being , half of Sumo wrestling is all about cutting off your opponent when they try to circle.
That's literally the sport.
Not to mention Sumo wrestlers themselves seek to obtain circularity in their physical form for this very reason. Also, by definition an octagon not a circle.
If Baruto came at most heavyweight strikers with his trademark spherocity they would not be able to escape. Crocop is the exception as he caught him with a knee, a win which should have an asterisk as Baruto was suffering from low blood sugar at the time.
If you can't see that Sumo is legit then you don't understand circular logic imo.
I'd love to see Stipe fight a guy 100lbs bigger than him.
I still believe Baruto could have been a force in the HW division.
He dominated a former UFC HW title Challenger, the guy who almost KOd prime Fedor, and a 3x K1 WGP champ in his first 3 MMA fights.
Too bad he fought Crocop in his 4th fight and then went into politics.
No, 265 is about the limit in terms of keeping the quality.I think the HW divison should be limitless. You should allow anyone larger than 265 to fight in that division. If guys heavier than 265 can earn their way into the top 10 or top 5 in the division i say why not make it happen.
I'd love to see Stipe fight a guy 100lbs bigger than him.
That would be a sight to behold.
We need to see some freak show fights.
