Vintage collection of Miyabiyama Tetsushi 雅山哲士 (Now Futagoyama 二子山 Oyakata) matches. Most of quite low quality due to the time in which it was recorded.
Miyabiyama Tetsushi (born July 28, 1977 as Masato Takeuchi) is a former sumo wrestler from Mito, Ibaraki, Japan. A former amateur champion, he turned professional in 1998. With the exception of two tournaments, he was ranked in the top division of professional sumo from 1999 until the end of his career in 2013, holding the second highest rank of ōzeki from 2000 to 2001. He won eight special prizes and was runner-up in four top division tournaments. He wrestled for Fujishima stable (formerly Musashigawa stable), where he worked as a coach until opening his own Futagoyama stable.
How lucky was that audience to watch this sumo! What beautiful sumo Oyakata had in his active days, his desciples are so lucky to learn from him. Nabatame comes to mind when watching this, his sumo is high energy also. Oyakata is such a legend!
He was known as the Heisei Monster when he debuted at Ms15 and took only 2 tournaments to get into Juryo divison. Another 8 tournaments to be promoted to Ozeki. Basically he was an Ozeki 2 years after his debut. To put it into perspective, Hakuho take almost 6 year to reach Ozeki. Asashoryu took 4 years. Chiyonofuji took 11 years, Akebono and Takanohana each took more than 5 years and even the great Taiho took 4 years. Yes - He is a real beast in his prime.
Wooooow incredible to see Oyakata in action! What a FIERCE, explosive and powerful athlete he is…I’m speechless because he is so gentle and humble outside of the dohyō. Who knew that lion spirit was within 🤩 What an honor for The Futagoyama boys to have him!
Just a reminder how powerful his former heya Musashigawa (now Fujishima) was, the heya produced 4 Ozeki in the 90's and early 2000's one of them becoming yokozuna Musashimaru (now the new Musashigawa oyakata, but he opened a different heya under the same name), his fellow Ozeki Musoyama (now Fujishima oyakata) and Dejima (now Onaruto oyakata) have an emperor's cup. He's the only one who did not win the cup in his stay in makuuchi.
ever since watching you and the boys in the sink stable I have been interested in your highlights thank you for posting this and good health to you and the boys
wow his younger self moved really well ... looks like his knees really took a beating during his career and his mobility/agility just got worse and worse , but still what a great career
In the past, there are a larger proportion of wrestlers that uses Yotsu Sumo or fighting from the belt, rather than Oshi Sumo, which is pushing and thrusting attacks. As the wrestlers gets bigger and heavier, most of them relies on the former to take full advantage of their bulk.
Amazing he is a true warrior and has every right to ask for fierceness and top mental and physical strength from his pupils, I am very impressed at the speed and vitality he had when he wrestled .
Wow he has defeated THREE Yokozuna!? Did I see that correctly? His battle with Wakanohana was brutal with them trading blows with their heads at the start.
Just FYI - former Ozeki Kaio is current Asakayama Oyakata, not Tomozuna Oyakata. Tomozuna is the former Kaisei and is also an oyakata at Asakayama Beya. Loved watching these vintage matches!
Miyabiyama was really good with his hands and was quite agile as well. I think his only problem was that he was a bit too heavy for his height which affected his balance.. His hand skills and agility remind me of his student Nebatame....
@@TechJapanology It's okay we all make mistakes sometimes, I still enjoyed the video. Although you are right, there was a foreign sumo from Egypt ; Ōsunaarashi Kintarō.
Miyabiyama Tetsushi is his Shikona. That's his ring name, sort of like Stone Cold Steve Austin instead of calling him just Steve Williams. When he retired and took over the running of a stable (Heya), he inherited the name of the stable. So essentially, he is now referred to as Futagoyama Oyakata. He never actually changed his legal name. In legal context, his name is Takeuchi Masato
