Sumo (japanska: 相撲?, sumō), ibland sumobrottning, är en japansk kampsport, där tunga och starka utövare, kallade rikishi, brottas upprätt. Syftet är att antingen få ut motståndaren ur ringen eller få denne att vidröra marken med någon annan kroppsdel än fotsulorna. Viktklasser existerar inte eftersom även den lättaste brottaren med hjälp av teknik kan vinna över en mycket tyngre motståndare. Kvinnliga sumobrottare finns endast på amatörnivå, och framför allt i väst.
