RIP. Akebono is what got me into sumo. These fights. Who is this guy and why does Japan promote him so much? Come to find out he was the Grand Champion of a beautiful amazing sport. The first foreign born Yokozuna. He was part of the Hawaiian takeover. That night i was in the rabbithole the sumo basho was live, Hakuho was smashing and that was that. I fell in love with sumo. Thanks Akebono.

The Akebono vs. Sapp matchup was a spectacle that captured the imagination of fans worldwide. Both fighters, giants in their own right, brought raw power and intensity to the ring. Despite their limited experience in professional boxing, their clash provided moments of excitement and unpredictability. In the end, Sapp's brute strength and aggressive approach proved too much for Akebono, securing him a memorable victory in this unique showdown of heavyweights

Goodbye, Akebono! ❤️

Bob Sapp is all class!

“I love lil Michael.”

Weird stuff

RIP Akebono.

This fight should not have taken place. Why? Taro A., in 1993, made history by becoming the first non-Japanese-born wrestler ever to reach yokozuna, the highest rank in sumo.

Этот здоровяк из Японии похоже вообще не знаком с единоборствами

Terrible news. So many sumotori die so young. Rest in Peace to one of the best American sports icons

Ο Akebono ΜΟΝΟ ΓΙΑ ΚΛΟΟΥΝ ΚΑΝΕΙ
