Jonosuke 28 Posted September 30, 2009 So Gagamaru becomes the third sekitori from Georgia. Tochinoshin has made a pretty impressive progress so far and I have no doubt that Gagamaru will do the same.

Kintamayama 45,111 Posted September 30, 2009 (edited) "I couldn't sleep last night because I was so nervous. When I heard of my promotion I was really happy.

kawika 123 Posted October 28, 2009 I haven't seen too much from Gagamaru. Are we in for more of the old Doge 'n' Pull? He made an appearance by my boy's ex-school, along with all of Kise Beya... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
