That American web site has had a very fun idea to list every "pair" who are very similar :

Enjoy their 12 pages here and find other famous couples !

My favourites are :

Actor and singer Will Smith, left, and L.A. Lakers forward Robert Horry.

North Carolina coach Matt Doherty, right, and Sam the Eagle of the Muppets.

Miami Heat forward Brian Grant, left, and Sideshow Bob of The Simpsons.

Golfer Nick Faldo, right, and actor Harrison Ford.

Former Miami Dolphins Quarterback Dan Marino, left, and actor-singer David Hasselhoff.

Absolutely ! And with Takanotsuru's good results that basho, I'm looking forward to watching the first Toki Vs Takanotsuru of history (at last) ... They will slap to eachother and they could tear away their respective sideburns ...

I find Takanotsuru's sideburns less impressive than Toki's.

As english commentator Syd Hoare always says, Toki seemed not to have shaved them for 5 years at least !

(Hehe...)

They did face each other - in Juryo. It was in March 2001- Day 11.Touki won by tsukitaoshi. I remember watching it on the stream and feeling very strange.

Although Takanotsoru is quite close to the real thing, he can't measure up to the one and only. There can be only one Toki. All others are imposters...

I've realized that all my favourite rikishi are rather ugly and a bit bizarre... With Toki's sideburns, Takamisakari's strange bout preparations and Buyuzan's ugly hairy back. I don't know why, but I think I am tired with the normal sports idolizing great lookers like Beckham.

Anyone agrees with me?

So, Toki is better than his double ?  (Sigh...)  :-P

Tokimori-zeki, Hoshifransu-zeki, could you use different avatars? You keep confusing (it's almost like watching Toki vs Takanotsuru bout) :-9

(Baaa...) this comment not to be taken seriously at any cost

I'd be happy to create a personal avatar for either of these gentlemen if they could point me to a photo of their choice. (Sigh...)

Speaking of avatars, I guess I'll create lots more of them next month. Details later after senshuraku...

Tokimori-zeki, after what you wrote, I let you Toki's avatar and your "Tokimori" shikona involves Toki's avatar !

I hesitated among Musashimaru, Miyabiyama and Towanoyama but I finally decided to put Miya as my avatar.

Thanks a lot, Kotoseiya Yuichi-zeki, but when you'll have the time, only, of course.

You can try that one even if this is not my best picture but I have no scanner to put on-line other photos of me ...
