Wamahada 57 Posted March 23, 2023 I think the author forgot in his article about the 4th lifter of the emperors cup in current Juryo division. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asanoyama, Ichinojo, Tochinoshin, and Tokushoryu right? Guessing he missed Toku, which I'm surprised an editor didn't catch.

WAKATAKE 2,660 Posted March 24, 2023 Even if he's in danger of falling down to makushita, they could at least have afforded him that benefit of having lifted the cup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seiyashi 4,098 Posted March 24, 2023 It's probably an accident from John Gunning, but I wouldn't be surprised if some quarters of the NSK would prefer that Tokushōryū never won a yūshō. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsuchinoninjin 1,275 Posted March 24, 2023 Maybe Tokushoryu didn't lift the cup, but merely raised it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
