Observing from the sidelines, CJ Stroud couldn’t resist chuckling at Parsons’ situation. After the wrestler won round one, Stroud famously gave humorous advise on how to celebrate, including the infamous “too small” gesture. Surprisingly, Parsons requested a rematch and prevailed in round two.

The video displays the amazing strength of sumo wrestlers from Japan. The fact that Parsons was able to compete with some of the strongest guys living is quite amazing.
Micah is unique because of his intense competitive nature, which led him to challenge a sumo wrestler. He never shies away from a challenge.
