Episode 61: Sumo Wrestling w/ Mandeep Singh Kundi
Combat Thoughts Podcast
03/21/22 • 33 min
We expand our grappling styles this week, looking at the 2000-year-old art of Sumo. Talking to British Sumo champion, Mandeep Singh Kundi a.k.a Deep, we talk about his reasons for practising the art, his journey through sumo, and some of the more philosophical points of grappling. Sumo is grossly misunderstood (especially in the UK) and I would recommend anyone interested in grappling to give it a listen. Hope you enjoy!
