Kotoinazuma Yoshihiro Biography
Kotoinazuma Yoshihiro (born 26 April 1962 as Masahiro Tamura) is a former sumo wrestler from Niiharu, Gunma, Japan. He made his professional debut in 1978, and reached the top division in 1987. His highest rank was komusubi and he earned two special prizes. After retirement he became an elder in the Japan Sumo Association and as of 2016 he is a coach at Sadogatake stable under the name Kumegawa.
Kotoinazuma was a late-blooming wrestler. It took him over nine years from his professional debut in March 1978 to reach the top makuuchi division, in November 1987. He was one of the few wrestlers to reach the top division despite twice going 0–7 in the lower divisions. (He also shares with yokozuna Kitanoumi the odd distinction of following an undefeated 7–0 score with a 0–7.) In addition it took Kotoinazuma 100 career tournaments before he earned a special prize (a Outstanding Performance Award in September 1994), which is the most in sumo history. He is also the second slowest to make it to a sanyaku rank, at 106 tournaments from sumo entry. This occurred when he was promoted to the rank of komusubi for the November 1995 tournament. This was to be his only tournament in sanyaku, as he had a losing record of six wins against nine losses. However, he did have his first and only win over a yokozuna in this tournament, defeating Takanohana. (He never upset a yokozuna at a maegashira rank and so did not receive any gold stars). He fought his final tournament in makuuchi in September 1998, by which time he was the oldest man in the top division. He competed in 60 top division tournaments without ever achieving double-digit wins, which is a record. He announced his retirement in July 1999 after facing certain demotion to the unsalaried makushita division. He had been an active wrestler for 21 years and fought 1551 bouts across 129 tournaments.
