>Because Hakuno Fuji had caused similar trouble before and had been banned from going out, Isegahama was worried that if such trouble occurred again, Hakuno Fuji would not be able to continue his career. For these reasons, Isegahama thought that verbal warnings would not get the better of him and that he would only repeat the same mistake if things continued as they were.

Hakuho demanded different treatment. Rikishi don't call monoiis because that means disagreeing with not only the gyoji but also the five (FIVE) shinpan, but he did it. Not only did he do it once while ringside but also attempted it on his own fucking match (literally against the rules). He wasn't even living at his own stable (see: DUDE WHAT THE FUCK). If he wanted special treatment he only got what he wanted all along, fuck that audacious cunt. Tremendous wrestler but awful person. All he had to do was ban glue at his stable but no here we are. At least Enho (forma de twink supreme) has come out of it smelling of roses.

Pretty certain it's in the rules that the only 2 people who can't argue the result of a match are the guys fighting. You really think rikishi don't feel their hair being pulled? Tons of guys feel hard done by the judges, fucking hell if they could monoii their own matches imagine how many times Asashoryu would've done it.

How long to people think Asashoryu could've gone if he wasn't forced out? He was still in strong form in 2010.
>>
>>259533
Hakuoho's testimony to the JSA was key in terms of establishing Hakuho's neglect and instigating a severe punishment for Hakuho. Furthermore the wallet involved was a gift that Hakuoho had bought for his junior so Hakuoho was emotionally motivated to testify in the way that he did
>>
>>
>>
>>259534
Not long enough to beat Taiho's record. Hakuho had already started to surpass him, and Asashoryu had already spent a good chunk of 2007 and 2008 injured. Hakuho wouldn't have as many uncontested 15-0 yushos, but he still would've had a fuckton of yushos until Asashoryu finally got too injured to continue.
>>
>>259487
There's nothing that says they can't point out a possible foul. Chiyoshoma did so just the past basho. After the match he looked at one of the judges and made a topknot grabbing motion. They did a monoii and ruled against him.
The problem with Hakuho wasn't that he asked for one in the first place, it was that he refused to leave when they denied it.

The punishment given to Teru is far more severe than whats been discussed here so far, he has lost his stable in all but name and he isn't likely to ever regain authority over it.
Details here: https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2026/04/11/articles/20260411s00 005000231000c.html
>>
>>259596
Lost is a bit too strong word; the other oyakatas will just randomly inspect the heya and have the same weight on the training and decisions as Teru. He may not get his rank back any time soon though.
I'm more confused on why Hakunofuji didn't get anything but some warning from Hakkaku, although per the report, this wasn't his first time being creepy around women.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>259597
Because he wasn’t acting “creepy. The 20 year old hoochie that the boomer supporter brought with him was enjoying the attention and pissed off the guy who helps pay for the rice. Terunofuji saw his meal ticket walking out the door and overacted like the low class mong he is.

They just don't appreciate real strength training. I remember hearing Harumafuji talk about making Ozeki and going for a meal with a top Mongolian wrestler who asked him about his bench press. 'ruma said it was about 80kg, at which point the Mongol burst into laughter and told him to double it. Go look at some pictures of Harumafuji after he made Yokozuna, dude's chest was crazy for a fatso.

I can believe this. Given that sumo is a very strict to its traditions and most of the stablemasters are stubborn old fucks, I can see them thinking that things a regular modern athlete does as unnecessary. Total "get off of my lawn" type vibe.

the quality of a yokozuna's meme ceremony is reflection of that yokozuna's performance inside the ring, not the other way around.

One thing that always bothered me about the red rope: the things that are dangling from it are still white.
Also, it's nuts that after Musashimaru, the next one who to do the red rope ceremony would be Kakuryu. All the other Yokozuna left/got booted from the JSA (Yes, Akebono passed away but he left the JSA when he was still alive so even if he did make it to 60, he wouldn't get to do the ceremony).
>>
>>
>>259863
Actually, it may be. Hakuho left in a bit of a ruckus, but he wasn't fired. Also, Harumafuji was allowed to serve as Asahifuji's sword-bearer long after he was booted. I suspect there'll be room for reconciliation.
>>
>>259867
>Hakuho left in a bit of a ruckus
That's an understatement. Dude has burnt way too many bridges and keeps trying to change sumo from the outside. Sure, the makeup at the top of the JSA will be different by the time he hits 60 but there will surely be detractors.
>Harumafuji was allowed to serve as Asahifuji's sword-bearer long after he was booted
Yeah but I imagine that went through because Asahifuji requested it, not because they were cool with Harumafuji being involved. Asahifuji was a influential figure at the JSA so he most likely knew what strings to pull to get it to happen. When Harumafuji turns 60, who's gonna be the influential figure near the top of the JSA to pull the strings on his behalf?
>>
>>259870
Like, the only way I'll believe any of the Yokozuna between Musashimaru and Kakuryu will do the red rope ceremony is if Takanohana gets to do it. If they let Takanohana do it then it's a green light for everyone else.
