Takayasu has been one of sumo’s top stars for over a decade. A former ozeki known for his power and versatility, he’s come agonizingly close to winning a top-division championship. And yet, he’s never lifted the Emperor’s Cup. In this video, I take a look at all nine of Takayasu’s runner-up finishes — ranking them from the tournaments where he was barely in contention to the ones where he came agonizingly close to victory. From late collapses to final-day heartbreak to playoff defeats, this is the story of one of sumo’s greatest bridesmaids. 🎵 Music: "Granite" by Ethan Meixsell 🎵 Music: "Steps" by Anno Domini Beats #sumo #sumotournament #grandsumo #takayasu #sports
