Its happening! Sumo is back.
Kakuryu's disciple Kakuho kicked off the action winning a decisive victory in the opening jonokuchi content just a short while ago and Takara Leben is sponsoring on Abema with the same saccharine adds they've been using since March.

It is over for Takakeisho, isn't it? I can't see him ever recovering from this injury and the sooner he retires the best for his long term life.
His stable master is retiring soon, will he inherit the stable?

>>142724453
Whenever he is healthy (which never happens), he wins 12 or 13 bouts in the tournaments. That's pretty much Yokozuna sumo. He also came 1 win away from becoming Yokozuna twice, even with all his injury issues.
No hate for Asanoyama at all, but he doesn't compare with a healthy Takakeisho.

He seems to have no defense. Granted, with his size and speed, it doesn't matter very often, but as soon as the other joi mainstays realize that he doesn't know what to do when you get him on the back foot, he's going to start taking losses.

All of Keisho's yushos happened when all the other top dawgs were injured. In the hypothetical world where every sumo wrestler is healthy, Takakeisho doesn't get close to sniffing the Emperor's Cup. Not only would he be going against healthy Terunofuji, but healthy Hakuho, Kakuryu, etc.

Holy shit. Why didn't I realized this before.

>>142763556
This is a weird thing to say, given that In practice, Takakeisho is not a contemporary of Kakuryu and Hakuho. By the time Takakeisho reached his prime and became Ozeki, Kakuryu and Hakuho were already semi retired.

And Terunofuji and Takakeisho rarely were healthy at the same time. I think they only competed for a yusho once or twice. When Terunofuji is healthy (which happens as rarely as Takakeisho being healthy) Takakeisho is usually injured.

Also, the question here is not if everyone got senzu beans and if someone summoned a healthy and young Raiden Tameemon to compete with modern rikishi.
But rather if an often healthy Takakeisho becomes Yokozuna. And he does.
Because whenever he is healthy he competes for the yusho. And his Yokozuna runs were not failed because he couldn't defeat the others. They failed because everytime he wins a tournament he injuries himself in the next one and his focus is at most to get 8 wins.

But in the end, being healthy is important to reach Yokozuna and he wasn't able to achieve this. But to say that if by a miracle he managed to be healthy he wouldn't be Yokozuna is just being an irrational hater.
>>
>>142768060
Wrong.
>>
>>142768060
>But rather if an often healthy Takakeisho becomes Yokozuna. And he does.
There's no proof that he would be able to win 2 in a row even if he was healthy. In his prime before his serious injuries, he never showed the consistency to win 2 in a row. Fact is he has never won a yusho when a yokozuna has competed. In every yusho he's won aside from the first, he was the highest ranking rikishi.

>Because whenever he is healthy he competes for the yusho.
There have been plenty of bashos where he was healthy and only went 10-5 or 11-4. Decent scores for ozeki, but not title challenging performances.

>And his Yokozuna runs were not failed because he couldn't defeat the others
His yokozuna runs failed literally because he couldn't defeat the others. There's a reason why he's never done better than JY-Y or vice versa.

>They failed because everytime he wins a tournament he injuries himself in the next one and his focus is at most to get 8 wins.
Absolute revisionism. That's true of his recent performances, not his whole career.

And yes, that's Asashoryu, he only had three tournaments total as ozeki before being promoted, and both other yokozuna (Musashimaru and Takanohana) were out injured for the second and third.

You know I think ozeki should drop to sekiwake more. 0-0-10-0 would be a lot of time to rest if you think about it and 10 wins after four months of rest should be easy for someone of ozeki caliber.

He barely ever competed with Yokozuna. He has had 7 matches in his career against Yokozuna, and I imagine most of them were when he was young and before becoming Ozeki, since by the time he became Ozeki, Kakuryu and Hakuho were semi retired and he barely competed against Yokozuna Terunofuji.

He won 3 Yusho as Ozeki. And he was always injured after winning. He went Kyujo after the first two. In the last title he was already injured when he won and then he just fought to avoid Kadoban in the next one (most people thought he would and should go kyujo after getting his 8th win in that tournament, if you remember).

>>142770772
He has a pretty decent record against pre-Yokozuna Terunofuji.
>>
I'm >>142772636
By the way, this shows the lack of healthy Yokozuna.
A very long serving Ozeki has only fought 7 times against Yokozuna. And probably most of those before he became Ozeki.
>>
>>142772636
>>142772859
He's had 24 matches against yokozuna in his career. He's had 7 since becoming ozeki.
>>
>>142772636
>He won 3 Yusho as Ozeki. And he was always injured after winning
You're conveniently ignoring that the first 2 yusho he won as ozeki were preceded by him getting a jun-yusho right beforehand. You want to cope that he was magically unhealthy before choking against Abi and Shodai? Face it, he's just not that guy.
>>
>>142772994
Ah, OK.
But that said, 7 matches against Yokozuna as Ozeki is just too little, given how long he has been Ozeki.

Is a JY a bad result?
>>
>>142773449
>Is a JY a bad result?
If you want to get a fucking rope, which is the fucking point.
>>
Takakeisho will be a big "what-if" but it's the same as "what if Kise didn't choke in 2013 and got a 4 year run as yokozuna" or "what if Kaio didn't choke in 2004" or "what if Futahaguro wasn't a fucking shitpump?" What-ifs are only good for speculation on alternate history, not good for the facts of reality.
>>
>>142773542
The issue here is a hypothetical 100% healthy Takakeisho. Given when he is healthy he usually gets a JY or Y, it is very probably that eventually he would get two straight Y.
Look at the records of post-Yokozuna Harumafuji and Kakuryu. Would you say they were bad rikishi?
>>
Yes
>>
>>142769187
>In every yusho he's won aside from the first, he was the highest ranking rikishi.
>the highest ranking rikishi won
You sound retarded but if keisho was more durable he would’ve been Y 2019 through 2022 was great years for keisho better than somes entire career. Sucks that sumo is like this but it is.
>>
>>142773842
> it is very probably that eventually he would get two straight Y.
It's not a given that he would win two straight even in your hypothetical scenario. History has shown that you can be an ozeki putting in consistent jun-yusho/yusho level performances back to back and never get the rope. Just look at Kaio and Kisenosato's careers.

>Look at the records of post-Yokozuna Harumafuji and Kakuryu. Would you say they were bad rikishi?
It's laughable that you think this helps your case. Post yokozuna Harumafuji and Kakuryu's careers are better than Takakeisho's entire career.
>>
>>142774399
>>142773842
The problem with saying "hypothetically 100% healthy Takakeisho" is how much his own style contributed to his injuries. A 100% healthy Takakeisho might not even peak high enough to be an ozeki, simply because he would wrestle a safer style that would result in more longevity but not enough wins.
>>
>>142774399
If you can only win when all the other elite people aren't there, does that make you elite? Retard.

>>
>>142774675
Kisenosato had just one Y before becoming Yokozuna...
The post Yokozuna records of Harumafuji and Kakuryu are very similar to that of Ozeki Takakeisho...
2 Y in a year at most. A Yusho every other year. And tons of injuries.
>>
yea Keiga.
>>
>>142774811
If you are consistently the highest ranking competitor in your sport, that's usually called "being elite".
>>
Keisho Yokozuna and weight limit sumo always makes /sumo/ explode never change /sumo/
>>
>>142775086
Is it "elite" to keep losing championships against guys lower ranked than you?


>>142775028
>Kisenosato had just one Y before becoming Yokozuna
The difference is he was doing it in much, much, more difficult era where there were multiple yokozuna and ozeki competing. Takakeisho had several layups where all the yokozuna and some of the ozeki were gone and fumbled it.


>The post Yokozuna records of Harumafuji and Kakuryu are very similar to that of Ozeki Takakeisho
Kakuryu won two yusho in a row as a yokozuna, making him instantly better than Takakeisho ever has been.
>>
Kikuchi is bad at cooking and sumo
>>
>>142775028
>Kisenosato had just one Y before becoming Yokozuna...
A yokozuna run is two tournaments, anon. Not one. The reason why his 12-3 J was considered yusho equivalent is because he beat all three yokozuna to do it.
>>
>>142775631
Bad at cooking? He did those omelets better than anyone there has ever done it. Sumo, yes.
>>
>>142775591
If you are the highest ranked, you are elite, yes. Do you think only Hakuho and Asashoryu are elite?
It seems like Takakeisho and Terunofuji are on their way out. Will you say Hoshoryu and Kotozakura will not be the elite guys when this happen? Even if they never reach Yokozuna but become long serving Ozeki who won a tournament a year?

>Kakuryu won two yusho in a row as a yokozuna, making him instantly better than Takakeisho ever has been.
You are just being dishonest here. Kakuryu's record as a Yokozuna is very similar to Takakeisho's record.

Kakuryu had 9 Y+JY in 7 years as Yokozuna before he broke down totally
Takakeisho had 8 Y+JY in 4 years as Ozeki before he broke down totally
Harumafuji had 9 Y+JY in 5 years as Yokozuna before being retired

Of course Kakuryu and Harumafuj were better. But Takakeisho was not bad at all.

>>142775725
I was not insulting Kisenosato.
Someone said Kisenosato alternated Y and JY. This was not the case.
He just competed in pretty much the worst era ever to win a Yusho so he had just one Y before becoming Yokozuna, since he just happened to have his prime in the same era Hakuho had his prime and there is no way anyone is getting two Y in a row against a prime, healthy Hakuho.

You're the one being dishonest by discounting the level of competition. Kakuryu and Harumafuji were beating ozeki and other yokozuna for their yushos. Meanwhile, Takakeisho has NEVER beaten an ozeki in all of his yushos at ozeki rank.

>But Takakeisho was not bad at all.
No one is saying he's bad. We're saying he's not yokozuna caliber. Being "not bad' doesn't cut it for the horizontal rope.

>>142802679
I think this works against them, not for them. If you're passably good at sumo in Brazil, you have the opportunity to do sumo and achieve moderate success and recognition without having to uproot your life and move to Japan. You can be a big fish in a small pond. For other countries, if you're good at sumo and want to go further, moving to Japan is basically your only option, due to the lack of a robust local scene.
