| SUMO IN TOKYO 2017 (Heisei 29) and 2018 (Heisei
30) |
| |
|
| It will be more than Sumo when you see all
the fights including Ichinojo (Mongolia), Aoiyama (Bulgaria), Amuru (Russia, named after the river Amur), Tochinoshin (Georgia), Gagamaru (Georgia), Kaisei (Brazil), Mitakeumi (Philippine), Takayasu (Philippine) and more. And very first African wrestler OSunaArashi (BigSanderStorm) from Egypt is fighting
to reach the summit of pyramid. All those
listed in high ranking sumo wrestlers earn
more than a million yen each month (good
job you'd consider?). If you were in Tokyo
area during Tokyo Tounament, please have
this chance to visit Ryogoku just accross Sumida river from Asakusa. |
