(Photo:Marca) Steph Curry has shared his sentiments about his loss to sumo wrestler Hakuhō Shō in Japan. Curry and the Golden State Warriors recently visited the 'Land of the Rising Sun' as part of their preparations for the 2022-23 NBA season. The Warriors played against the Washington Wizards twice in Saitama on September 30 and October 2. During the Warriors' trip to Japan, Curry and Klay Thompson were introduced to the country's national sport: sumo wrestling. The Splash Brothers took on a sumo legend who holds the record for most career wins with 1,187. Curry and Thompson were no slouches, but they were no match against Shō. Curry, who is considered to be one of the strongest NBA players pound-for-pound, was unable to move Shō. Meanwhile, Thompson had two chances to move the sumo star by just an inch, but failed miserably. The strength Shō displayed was impressive. Steph Curry joined Peyton and Eli Manning on ESPN's "Manningcast" to discuss the LA Rams' matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Curry revealed how he felt after taking on the greatest sumo wrestler ever. He couldn't even move the 45-time champion. "It's still early in training camp," Curry said. "I've been working during the summer, but I may have even lost some strength over the summer. But even crazier, he had socks on on the hardwood floor. I didn't know it at the time. It was even more deflating when I saw the video afterwards." "I realized I had all the traction with my basketball shoes and he's got just socks on. I literally didn't move him an inch and I gave it everything I had."

Shō had a nice shooting stroke, sinking two free throws in the video below.
