[[Link]] is taught the art of Sumo by [[Mayor Bo]], who explains the basics of Sumo Wrestlin'. From within an arena, each wrestler is expected to push the opponent outside of it. Wrestlers can strike their opponent, grab them directly to push them, or sidestep to avoid being struck. After being appraised of the basics of Sumo, Mayor Bo challenges Link to a match in order for the young hero to obtain the secret to defeating the Gorons, who refuse to let outsiders onto [[Death Mountain]].<ref>{{Cite|You've gotta defeat the Gorons, right?
