Whilst I have to admit that the Yokozuna Asashoryu has been a bit of a bad boy from time to time, he has always learned from his mistakes and corrected his behaviour accordingly. Plus at 23 years old he is still very young. And not coming from a sumo family (or in fact Japan), surely a few lapses should be expected, and more importantly forgiven.
But whatever his faults, he is more than worthy of his status as Grand Champion. Ability wise none of the current crop of wrestlers can get anywhere near him. His achievement of winning the last 2 tournaments without a single loss (only ever done once before) attests to this.
Yet regardless of his talent or behaviour, it’s a big leap from receiving prizes with the wrong hand to the introduction of women sumo wrestlers in high heels.
Or is it?

That’s better! What a hunk!

I must confess I tried to find some pictures of attractive lady wrestlers (although not necessarily wearing high heels), but failed miserably. Hence ‘the hunk’!

That’s bizarre Ted. But funny too!

Yes I was worried by number of responses after my link, that it was too bizzare.
But thanks Lee I hope you check out the sites other videos.
