At the age of 14 and weighing in at 20 stone, Samantha-Jane Stacey is born to be a sumo wrestler.
She will be aiming for sporting glory as the youngest Australian to participate in the world wrestling sumochampionships this month in Estonia.
Much focus will be on the championships after the sport, plagued with recent scandals, was hit with yet another controversy as three wrestlers admitted beating up a junior trainee who later died.
