Peter Sagan showcases his skills in a new sport: Sumo. He was with Chris Froome, Rui Costa, and Marcel Kittel; watch the videos

During the last Saitama Japan Criterium at the end of last year, some of the top cyclists in the professional peloton were able to showcase their talent in the land of the rising sun. However, not all of the cycling idols limit themselves to cycling.

Immersing in Japanese culture, Sagan took the opportunity to explore Japanese traditions. As a top athlete, he chose to engage in Japan’s most traditional sport: Sumo wrestling. In Sumo, the objective is to either knock down the opponent or force them out of the ring, and striking is not allowed. Of course, amusing videos were made of this moment.

Check out Sagan’s presentation.

Certainly, images of this were captured. Sagan competed against robust Japanese opponents and also took part in the amusing warm-up. Chris Froome, Marcel Kittel, and Rui Costa were also present. You can watch another entertaining video below.
