    Onosato is at the pinnacle of sumo right now. He deserved his stack of cash envelopes.

    Look out for the judge's wooden fan (gunbai) when the rikishi meet at the centre of the dohyō.

    If he's pointing to the side, it's not time to go yet. When the gyoji points his gunbai to the middle, the tachiai (initial charge) can start.

    BBC Radio Presenter Nick Grimshaw, watching from the Royal Albert Hall - 'Um, so I've never seen Sumo before.

    'I was so excited to come because we went to Japan last year, but we didn't get the chance to see sumar and it's phenomenal, I love the detail.

    'The whole performance is so exciting. I love the building and the ritual of it.

    'Um I mean I'm not a massive sports guy but it's maybe my new favourite sport.'
