- Tochinoshin Tsuyoshi is a professional sumo wrestler from Georgia and made his professional debut in March 2006. He is known for his grappling skills, muscular physique and most of all his incredible strength. His most common winning technique or kimarite is "yori kiri" or force out. However, Tochinoshin's most memorable and entertaining fights are when he grips his opponent's mawashi and heaves him into the air, lifting him over and out of the ring. This winning technique or kimarite is called Tsuridashi 吊り出し. The feeling of helplessness when in the air and trying to wiggle out of the situation is something that is embarrassing and amazing at the same time, hence, this Kimarite or winning Technique is the most savage and disrespectful in the world of Sumo.

the best thing about Tochi is how much effort he was putting in to make sure his opponents weren't getting hurt tumbling out of the ring. You can see him helping them catch their balance in most of these clips.
I couldn't agree more. That is just as impressive as his strength. He protects his fellow rikishi and the sport as a whole.
That's what stood out more than anything for me as well. No bad blood whatsoever. Just two athletes competing to see who's better as it should be.
It's also done as an honorable thing, and to preserve the honor of his opponents. Falling off of/letting the opponent fall from the dohyo is seen as less honorable than staying on it, as I understand it.
Ryt
Yes, not only a powerful athlete, he is also a true sportsmen
Just imagine being a 300+ pound man who has dedicated his entire life to getting stronger and heavier, then rising to the very top ranks of the sport... only to be carried out of the ring like a naughty child.
by a wedgie no less (the guy in blue) hahahahaha
It's so disrespectful isn't it 🤣
Before my health went bad I weighed 310lbs (6'6.5 height) and could shoulder shrug 515lbs but there is NO way I would want to participate in this sport. I read that many of these guys suffer from bad backs and joints. I do enjoy watching some of the wrestlers like tochi. There is or was a really good small japanese sumo and caucasian I like too but don't remember their names :( watching the tiny guys win against some of these giants is amazing.
@@lazerathhome Enho is probably the small Japanese wrestler you refer to - he's the smallest ever at 5'6" and barely over 200 lbs; the Caucasian might be Takanoyama, who was always lean and muscular but could still throw his opponents.
By a white guy
I miss prime Tochinoshin. He just powerlifted anyone when he got the grip on the mawashi with both of his hands.
yeah that over under is pretty impressive, seen it in judo before as well, learned a lot just by watching this
The Human Forklift
No surprise his knees crumbled with all that abuse. Powerlifting out the ring strains your knees a lot and he was very liberal with using it.
@@slaiyfershin Imagine powerlifters lifting weights that were actively trying to not get lifted.
How do they not get massive wedgies? That actually looks painful being carried like that. Im surprised no one has accidentally thrown a punch from being carried like that.
My condolences to the official who had an entire sumo wrestler dropped on him, he will be missed.
Lol that old guy got crushed 😂
Except that he wasn't.
It's hard to believe that they let the officials sit that close
@Lieutenant Dan surely there are safer ways to do that though?
@@anon3247 it's Japanese tradition bro, them mofos will jump off a cliff if its traditional for them
Tochi has just retired. Wish him a happy and pain free life after ōzumo.
Thank him for the memories and his displays of sheer strength
yup
dude lifting 350-400 pound men and making it look easy
If he hadn't have injured his knee, I fully believe Tochinoshin would have become a grand champion.
I second that
He is a grand champion though. January 2018. First Georgian to become sumo grand champion.
@@kape2978 you know he meant yokozuna psh
I wish we had the technology to heal knee injurys like they never happened that would be cool, he would be Yokozuna
He has the best technique that Japans never ever thaught about it :) they also been unfAir to him sometimes...
He is the legend
I REALLY like how he seems to try and keep his opponent from falling off the dohyo. From what ive seen of him he seems like a very good sport
@@WesHalScyth i hope that he is starting to realize this. I think if he adapts his style he could stick around a while (without new injuries at least). He is obviously huge, strong, and has the fighting spirit still it seems like
I don't
one can only imagine a world where his knee did not get destroyed, but sumo is a combatsport and these are heavy men. it takes a toll. still, well deserved ozeki and a great rikishi.
@Marcello might be wrong here but i heard in a video he got beat with a gold club my his master because he was out after their curfew and was wearing western style of clothing and that was why he got his knee fucked up correct me if im wrong also i imagine even one hit from a golf club would severely injure !
@@nickjensen4385 The injury was unrelated to the beating, but he was still beat with a golf club for breaking those rules. ACL tears come about from twisting and torquing the knee, the kind of stuff that just happens when you're 400 lbs of muscle and fat trying to dislodge and move another 400 lbs of muscle and fat a dozen times every two months.
@@Gigas0101 what the hell they beat him with a golf club? thats insane.
@Jelly Punk Sumo is not for weak men.
@Jelly Punk *"yeah violent beatings like these in sumo camps are pretty common unfortunately. It’s real bad"*
Uh huh, uh huh...
But is it not true that the beatings don't happen unless one breaks the rules? I mean, if an _innocent_ man gets a beating, _that's_ something to be sorrowful about. That's a big deal. But if one knows the rules, and _voluntarily_ joins the ranks of the _rikishi,_ and then breaks the rules....
Well, I fail to see how any _man_ has anything to be upset about. Women on the other hand....
Man, Tochinoshin used to be a monster in the ring.
don't count him out just yet, he started off the most recent tournament poorly but was showing great form in the second half
@JS Sim There's a reason he was an Ozeki
@JS Sim his Ozeki run was incredibly awesome and that was after his first knee surgery.
@JS Sim iirc, he once lifted Ichinojo out of the ring.
Used to nothing man, I saw the july basho. He's back baby.
I love Sumo. Something about this sport is just wildly entertaining.
Честь и хвала Грузинскому богатырю !
Леван лучший !!!
🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪💥💥💥👍👍👍
Жаль, что грузинский ренессанс в сумо подходит к концу =(
if u are from Georgia, why do you speak katsap?
Not difficult to understand why the big Georgian's knees are presently held together with rubber bands and baling wire.
Terunofuji's are too, and he just became yokozuna so anything is possible.
Hakuho is older than Tochinoshin. Tochi just needs to get his knees fixed.
@@twizz420(Love your name, by the way). I'm sure he's had a bunch of doctors check out those knees in the last few years. We'll never know what Tochinoshin's options really were. Could he have had some sort of surgery two or three years ago that would allow him to be as healthy as he was a decade ago? Doubtful. Doctors are just doctors. They aren't miracle workers. I'm assuming he feels his best option is to hang in as long as he can with a diminished body, retire in the near future, and then get some sort of surgery that would allow him maximum mobility for the rest of his life. That certainly makes sense to me.
@@twizz420 his Ozeki run occurred after getting knee surgery and recovering the first time. I don't know what the situation was the second time but he did what he did and that entire leg is a mess now.
@@richdurbano yours is the most logical scenario, imo.
Saving up $ to support family then (hopefully) retiring BEFORE getting permanently disabled. Hope you are right.
@@RambleOn07 Yeah, another surgery, even if that was feasible and then, successful, would drive him his ranking down into the hinterlands of the the fifth division and at his age, being older than Teru, he could never stick around long enough to ever regain his current ranking, let alone, Qzeki..
I started watching sumo right before his Ozeki run, was an absolute joy watching him during that time
Imagine a healthy Tochinoshin with the fabled white rope around his waist.
Awwww, man. If only!
I do every time I watch him compete, man.
I wish it could be possible :(
You're making all of us Georgians cry 😭
I dream every day that one day he gets on top of the mountain, I still don’t lose no hope even though it seems close to impossible but I guess man can dream that’s his own right and sometimes even impossible dreams come true!
Enho is the smallest and the lightest of all in this video yet he lasted the longest. Lifted and almost threw Tochinoshin just before being lifted himself and carried away himself. Incredible lad.
Enho is a glimpse into what we could have had if Takanoyama were able to put on weight.
Never thought sumo would be so much fun. Is actually a great sport
A wonderful tribute to my favorite rikishi. On us big men our knees are the weak spot.
I wish him all the best in the future.
Tochinoshin - не только очень сильный, но и благородный грузин. Он всегда придерживает противника, чтобы не нанести ненужную травму. На его месте многие рикиси выбивают противника толчком вниз, как будто намеренно хотят травмировать. Например, Асасёрю выкидывал соперников с дохе безжалостно вниз. И Хакухо тоже так делает. Но Точиносин не такой.
Agree. There are several moments in this video where you can see he is concerned for the safety of his opponent. A noble man, as you say. :)
that's how us Eastern Europeans are. we treat people with respect.
@@Fr0sty4242 yeah, tochi is Georgian
Да,он очень честный и добрый человек.
@@user-gs5iw7yl7m tako baš
Found out today about his retirement.
He was one of the best and an inspiration to all, thank you Tochinoshin!
That's my man, before him people didn't even know there was a country named Georgia out there in eastern asia. He has done waaay more than enough to represent our country. This man is a perfect example of greatness and humbleness combined in one body.
hello !
The last famous person before him I knew from Georgia was Joseph Stalin XD
What about Levan
I would say Caucasus
Kokai and Gagamaru-komosubi.
By far, the most attractive and spectacular way to win a bout. I love it.
He's a uniquely built and qualified human crane with enough base to support two giants. Most impressive!
I mean, his thighs are like my torso 🤣🤣🤣
What an elevating video! After retiring, Tochinoshin will enter the elevator business will his own brand.
I love tochi. When I was living in LA and watching NHK everyday, Grand Sumo Highlights was what I looked forward to. Watching him win that tourney that year was inspiring.
you seem 420 friendly
In most of these clips Tochi be like "Let me teach you something about sumo son".
He really was yokozuna-level before all the injuries.
Now he needs to retire.
He's squeezing the last drops of top division salary he can get. Georgia is not a wealthy country after all.
He wasnt yokozuna level in my opinion. All he has has a good mawashi game and super strength. Dont get me wrong i really like yhe guy and he was one of my favorites but he was a one trick pony.
@@joegrills9458 He was no Hakuho, that's for sure, but him and Harumafuji had an intense rivalry before tochi hurt his knee, that injury robbed him of his consistency and he kind of stopped evolving.
absolutely
2:20 he’s all like “god damit not again 😑”
He was a beast in his prime!
Crazy to see prime Tochi, a time when he could actually bend at the hips and knees
Is he retired?
@@Gac3la He retired in May this year
@@hyper_channel yeah, saw a video like a month or so ago.
A gentle Beast!
My respect from BRASIL 🇧🇷
Kaisei from your country (Brazil) is another 'gentle beast' -- always offering a hand to the defeated opponents to get back to dohyo
Sadly to see him retire after this hard fought battle against injurty after injury. He was one of the greatest in this sport and had huge potential to be on the top for a long shot but fate can bring you obstacles at your best moments and he managed to overpass some but many brought him to his eventual demise. Respect to you great Georgian!
this is my first time seein tochi with nothing on his knees
Yeah, and seeing these techniques, you understand why the knees hurt!
I honestly wonder if Tochinoshin could've made it as a power lifter
@@RambleOn07 Most rikishi definitely could
@@AFrenchman31 A lot of the Rikishi can bench over 400lb while not taking the exercise seriously
My uncle got me interested in sumo recently, we watched together. French TV almost never show tournaments except during the summer, with " some" delay. Some means, that this summer, they aired 2017/2018 tournaments... But they give explanations, and I found this sport much more interesting as I thought.
For some reasons, this rikishi caught my eye. First of all, because I try to learn georgian, and I didn't expect to see one georgian wrestler at such high level, and secondly I must admit, because I thought most, if not all wrestlers were very " round" guys, I didn't expect to see such an athletic one. Plus I 've had the immediate impression "Well beside all, this man seems to be a nice, peaceful, friendly fellow, with a good sportly spirit, I'll root for him". But wow, this was impressive. Nice to see both the fighting abilities and the good spirit displayed here. So these days I check the daily results of Aki Basho, hoping to see a new victory, although he isn't at his peak these days. კარგია, ბატონო მოჭიდავე !
But, well, the way he lifted and carried poor Enho (my other crush because... go small guy, you can do it! sad that he couldn't take part this autumn) was hilarious.
The Great Tochi. Man he was a beast in his prime.
Tochinoshin has the 3 qualities to execute this move. Strength, height advantage over most of his opponents, and overall skills.
Almost all of these force outs are by Tochi
It’s indeed amazing how strong he is
To be able to lift up 3-400lbs/ 150-200+ kg
In the air
While he is moving and the opponent is resisting
Tochinoshin is such an amazing athlete, too bad his knees have been giving him so much trouble. Would love to see him stay in Makuuchi for as long as possible. Of course he is already 33 years old and it's great you have made this video. I do not think he will be competing for too much longer.
Too bad? It's nothing to do with the weight his poor legs and ankles have had to carry throughout these battles?!?!?!?! No of course not, it must be poor luck!
🤔
@@DailyCorvid your reading comprehension sucks and you have some serious confidence issues
@@DailyCorvid *"No of course not, it must be poor luck!"*
Well, "luck" certainly has something to do with it, if by "luck" one means "circumstances beyond one's control". Like genetics, natural phenomena, etc.
If you're saying that his knees would have fared better had he not put on so much weight, that's a legitimate point. But if he wanted to compete as one of the _rikishi_ he really had no choice.
He's a man---a big boy---he made his own decision. And dealt as best he could with the luck that Lady Fortuna spun his way. (To mix Eastern and Western views).
TOCHINOSHIN is already a LEGEND! 💗
In a world of strong guys, though Tochinoshin may not have been the biggest or the fastest or the most technically skilled, he was certainly one of the strongest...
I've only been watching sumo for the last couple of years and WOW what a great sumo wrestler he once was! It's very sad to see him struggle these days but I can see he's brought lots of excitement in the top division. Thank you Tochinoshin. ❤️
What a vice!
Very unfortunate with his knee injury it is good to see him still competing at the top level even with his age
Yeah I don't know how much longer we're going to have him but he still manages some brilliance every so often even if he can't utilize his power sumo anymore.
@@RambleOn07 my wife and I always feel sad when he is fighting. Watching the inevitable decline.
Thanks for this! It's great to watch Tochinoshin again when he was at the height of his powers. I remember seeing him get a Tsuridashi win over Ichinojo. I wouldn't be surprised if he's the only rikishi to ever do that.
Thank you for collecting all these fantastic bouts videos! Watching these videos made me adore him once again!
He made 9 wins at the last tournament in Osaka, and I hope he will keep on fighting, though it might be tough for him.
Tochinoshin is one of my top three all time favorites. Thank you for putting this video together!
I'm japanese who feel joy to see the young challenges from foreign country's.
European sumo wrestlers had climed to the top level so quickly, makuchi and sanyaku. however, at middle of the process to OZEKI and YOKOZUNA, they got injured unfortunately.
they had a talents and potentials, power, big body, arm's reach and mental, will of success in the foreign country JAPAN.
we japanese wait to watch who will be the first YOKOZUNA from Euro in the future.
Shishi could be that guy
Not only is he lifting 250-300+lb men but if the have a mowashi grip then he's also having to deal with them trying to pull themselves downward. This dude and Hakuho got me into sumo
Same here. 5 or 6 years now. Big fan for life. No sport equals what sumo gives us. 👵💜 🇯🇵 💪
Tochinoshin will always be my favorite, his matches took me from a sense of wonderment about sumo to an intense awe-inspiring level of appreciation for strength and balance.
Great Video, Great work, thank you!
Tochi will always be Legend to me!
Prime tochi was really beast
Hearing the crowd supporting Tochi...oh how I miss that sound these days.
This was... satisfying.
Thanks for this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Best thing when rewatching these is to see the facial reactions of the crowd during the lifts
Tochinoshin has always been my favorite rikishi ❤️
Ah yes, I can imagine Tochinoshin will be watching this highlight reel over and over again someday when he's retired. Tsuridashi is the ultimate power move and it's a lot easier if your opponent is lighter than you are. But it still must take a toll on your lower back. The flailing legs of the opponent make it very amusing and poor Enho was at the point of tears as he saw all the spectators laughing.
today he retired :(
It's my first time to see Tochi in 2010. He was absolutely beast. Hope you upload the classic Tochinosin when in his prime.
Now this is a sumo video I can share with friends and family. Thank you!!
This is why Big Tochi is my favorite wrestler. He is power incarnate
Tochi trying his best to get a cinematic slam shot
Chiyonokuni: no
Incredible technique and he showed great respect to his opponents by making sure they didn’t fall and had there balance
Your channel has helped spark an interest in this for me. Thank you.
I like the highlight of sumo techniques thanks for the video
Thank you for this compilation. When I saw him lift Enho, I did not realize this was a common technique for him, much less that he could apply it to much heavier opponents.
He couldn't apply it to anyone near his size. All lighter than him 😊
Another awesome compilation! Thanks for posting 🤝
Watching young, prime Tochinoshin is truly a spectacle.
Great to see Yoshikaze, a real excitement machine!
Didn't realize Aran made it to the Sanyaku ranks.
Big Tochi has had, and is still having, a fantastic career! Full of ups and downs! It's been a pleasure to watch.
The least violent, yet most savage technique.
Thanks Don Don, really enjoying your Sumo channel
I like that whenever he wins he usually makes sure to not let the opponent fall off the edge. Respect
nice to see him in his first years without those crazy knee bandages and full healthy
a healthy Tochi is a force of nature.
Love your channel! Really fascinating stuff man. Wanna see more
Man tochi was a beast in his prime
free georgian bear hugs 😂 love to this beautiful sport from india
Man can move mountains
Thanks for showing the times when Tochinoshin was doing good. I do not think that he will ever come back to the top.
True sportsman to set the the opponent down so gently outside the ring.
Love how he gently place them out of the ring definitely has my respect. If there is a hall of fame In sumo He should Be in there
I still love him despite everything! Tochi for eveeeeer
just pure raw power from tochi
The way he secures a hold, then steps in to shift the center of gravity.
The following lift and sure footing.
Amazing.
I would pay gold to see a rugby team with sumotori
Вынес и аккуратненько поставил -
это фишка !
Браво !!!
💪🏻😍🇮🇱🇬🇪
Can you imagine how powerful Tochinoshin was to be able to lift you, but with one arm usually over the opponent's arm??? That's very hard to do even holding the other wrestlers Mawashi??? Truly a titan of a man!
Tochi is a beast.
I love me some Tochi, but it's hard to watch if he has gets pushed back at all. He's 100% explosive power at this point, since his knee can't handle backward movement. Having just wrenched my knee recently, I completely understand and give tons of respect to him for continuing as a rikishi at this point. Hopefully he can hone his tachiai to fit his brand of sumo and do some damage in future honbasho.
Admiro a personalidade e a força deste grande lutador. Vida longa a todos.
ive been lucky to have seen Tochinoshin in person back before covid...after 2018 it just went downhill quickly...but what a force what a great sumo
This guy is awesome! Tochinoshin may you enjoy your retirement:) from Cali much love ❤
He is amazing Go Tochi🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪
Unbelievable strength 💪
Tochinoshin... thank you!
great video. thank you
To this day, his spirit remains unbroken.
Tochinoshin, I wish you got to the heights of sumo that you deserve.
The thumbnail alone deserves a like and follow
Proud Georgian here 🔥🇬🇪❤️ tochi third European in the history of Sumo who became champion , took Ozeki status and everything with the badly injured leg and shoulders
Prime Tochi was a human crane, wish his knees could have stayed healthy
The beast himself.
Love to see you're into sumo bro
Грузини сами сильнй всех!
Awesome video!Thanks sharing!!!🤩👍🤩👍🤩👍
Hey Don Don, I like the fact you are focusing on the rikishi techniques. Played football and Judo it was all about technique & repetition (uchikomi)!!
