 Kotooshu!
Gesundheit. What? Kotooshu is a Bulgarian professional sumo wrestler or rikishi working
in Japan. He is currently ranked as an ozeki or 'champion', the second-highest level
in the sumo ranking system behind only yokozuna. Popular with the Japanese public
with his good looks, he has been called the "David Beckham of Sumo" and
the "Prince of Sumo," although he expressed displeasure with the former
moniker.I thought most sumos were small and very fat but Kotooshu is 6'8" and
about 330 lbs. This sounds like a lot to me but for a sumo he is actually a lightweight!
A previous sumo champion who was also 6'8" tall weighed 517 pounds. Kotooshu
is trying to gain more weight. |
