I’m back here to rewatch this great documentary as his fellow countryman Hoshoryu was just named Yokozuna. The Mongolian impact on sumo has been legendary.

2 yokozuna in one family grazy af❤

And they gave yokozuna to hoshoryu lol

real dupoi pizda shu ene

Fast forwards Hōshōryū is the 74th Yokozuna !!🎉

The mental battle he had to fight

Hakuho is the G O A T of Sumo. Hakkeyoi ! !

beautiful man❤👍🏼💪🏽

Воскресная схватка двух ёкодзун

A yokozuna training another yokozuna.

Now he is Yokozuna as big uncle

look at what Hosho has become❤

As a Mongolian, I know he didnt gave up Mongolian citizenship. He would have never accept Japanese citizenship if he could own sumo stable.

So this is how he destroyed his own legs.

Typical Mongol men. We grow up wrestling.

Typical Mongol men.

Yokozuna !!!

It is amazing to think that world class sumo training is happening in the backyard at the family barbecue.

That council are a bunch of 😸

The greatest of all time! 45 top division championships, many of them he went undefeated.

When he 30 His move start smart

It seems that the yokozuna is still at a high level.

I remember seeing Hakuho in the gym as well too. Had an insane deadlift as I recall. These guys are beasts.

Asa could still be competitive in Makuuchi right now.

He is the greatest sumo champion of all time. He should be respected more seriously but now he still walks the long lonely way.

After watching this extraordinary documentary; all those Great names in Sumo came Back to my mind … Takanohana; Kitanoumi; Chionofuyi; just to mention a few!!! I clearly remember when coming back to the hotel around 6:00 pm I Watched Sumo and enjoyed so much!!! I did not know about Hakuho story but he definatel will go in the history of Sumo in Japan !!!! What a wrestler!!!

How all of his little kids support their 'hero'/daddy during every single training....heartworming, really..... U dont see such a thing in Europe, let alone US of A....not that I know of one single case...^^

数々の記録を塗り替え、金字塔を打ち立てた大横綱だが、色んな事件や不祥事に顔と名が出たので信頼性を無くした。元々は外国人なので常識の違いや、また、本人の持つ性格が古くから続く日本の相撲界とは相容れない点が多々あった。だが、新記録樹立と相撲界に大きく貢献した功績は大きく、偉大な足跡をも残した。 相撲がこれだけ世界で人気になり、やる人も観る人も増えたが、旧態依然としていて今の時代に合わない点が多く、変革、改革が必要だが一応「国技」として位置付けられている伝統的競技なので なかなか変えるのが難しい。また、変革し過ぎると柔道の様になってしまい伝統は失われる。

Dude was the boogeyman back in his day. Even haku had a hard time with him.

😂😂

Asashoryu koca götünü seviyoruz.. Çok osurma.. .

Just wanted to thank you for this great documentary. Great work we appreciate you!

Legends

The daughters worry for her brother is so sweet.

still a legend

I understand Hakuho's perspective as being a foreigner and wanting to be accepted by the Japanese and sometimes feeling like they were rooting against him. But at the same time, I think quite a bit of what was happening was that Hakuho was so good for so long, that you naturally start rooting for the underdog. During Hakuho's prime, it's almost an impossible feat to beat him. It's hard not to root for someone who came close to challenging his supremacy.

a sumo anime brought me here

Great documentary. The other side of being a successful yet foreign sumo master. Thank you for all the insights and adding the many mental hardships a Yokozuna endures…

I love this documentary. I'm so glad Hakusho followed thru with his destiny and let the record books speak of his love for Sumo, the Japanese Culture and Tradition.

He is really a big softie

I enjoyed this and learnt alot. what a legend.

Аса аварга алиа шүү

He is Greatest 🙏 Yokozuna in history of Sumo

I miss seeing him so much. He has been so badly treated by the Sumo Association it's truly a national disgrace since he retired

They left him alone. He kept the sumo alive and breathed new life into it!

I’m supposed to be Christmas shopping

50:43 You can see Hakuho's students were cheering for him (Enho cried

Are they speaking korean not Japanese?

I thought the thumbnail was AirSoftFatty

Like Uncle like nephew, It's great that ASA is taking the time to teach and mentor HO.
