  • Akebono and Takanohana's rivalry is arguably the best rivalry in Sumo Wrestling. They made sumo wrestling more popular and tournament attendance soar during the early 1990's. Both legends made their debut at the same month and rose through the ranks of sumo quickly.

    Don Don, this move by move breakdown you've done, imo is your finest piece of work! I've only been watching sumo for 5 yrs., and even though I watch every basho and videos on sumo, I still miss all that actually happens (the defensive vs offensive moves) most of the time - even in slow motion! This video has explained more to me than any other video or match I've seen! Props sumo brother! Great job! 💋

    My all time favorite sumo rivalry! The whole reason I started watching sumo was Akebonos rise to Yokozuna in the early 90s.

    You can tell that Akebono entered his human bulldozer period in those last 2 fights. It was fun until his knees gave out.
    I think I remember the final score between the two, cant wait for part 2 to see if Im right.

    Takanohana and Akebono started began in sumo in 1988, they met in a Makushita match in September 1989 and from there on, they fought in a number of tournaments.
    I want to see the last part when Akebono and Takanohana were promoted as Yokozuna in 1993 and 1994, until their retirement in 1998 and 2001.

      In my opinion i think if they faced each other at their bests the first match would go to Akebono but then I think Hakuho is just too versatile and would win most matches after that, though he never had to face monsters like Akebono, Musashimaru or Konishiki so he would have a tough one adapting
