Ozeki twice

Recommended Posts

Hey guys. I wonder, if it ever happend, that a Rikkishi made it to Ozeki twice. And not just demoted to Sekiwake and then got back with a 10-5 or bette, like the famous Tochiazuma did twice. But someone who managed to get the 33 (or so) wins "Again" ?

Yes, that’s happened. Kaiketsu is your man. He reached Ozeki twice in the 1970s.

The 33 (or so) wins isn't necessarily enough. Miyabiyama was demoted from ozeki in 2000, then in 2006 he had a run of 10-5, 14-1-d and 10-5 (=34), followed by a 9-6 (=33), but did not get re-promoted.
