Jaakunakunshu 12 Posted February 12, 2019 Hello all, I've been a long time follower of puroresu and so only knew a little bit about sumo from guys who have crossed over into that like Akebono, but I started watching the last tournament just because I happened to see that it was available on Youtube and I'm hooked! Trying to catch up on last year's tournaments (thanks Kintamayama for making them so easy to find). My favourite so far is Ikioi, I love how scrappy he is and how he fought even with his head bandaged up in the Hatsu tournament. Also I like Abi and Takakeisho. I'm still learning about how sumo works so apologies in advance if I ask a lot of questions 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its like a second home to me....... I have probably spent more time in Hull than any other town or city outside of my own town..... That does include 3 weeks in hospital(After my accident) And 3 weeks in Hull prison though.......(For unpaid council tax) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
