“I believe that winning is Yokozuna sumo” goes hard,Hakuho will always be one of the greatest of all time.
He’s easily up there with Jordan or Gretzky or Ruth, dominant, wild records in a wildly competitive sport.
And yet much of the world doesn’t know about him.
Hell yeah, brother!!!
@@sapwoodwildwood5843 He's better. Sumo is the hardest sport to survive. While your athletes live wealth they have to live in the stable 24h and eat so much, sustain obesity. While restricted by so many life rules and obligations. If a sumo wrestler gets injured he gets demoted fast, unless he's yokozuna. While basket ball players get to rest and get his full salary. Sumo is a higher sport than playing with a fucking ball. STFU kiddo
@@sapwoodwildwood5843the real kid here thinks ice hockey is more popular than cricket 🤣 start watching real hockey
@@sapwoodwildwood5843 America isnt the center of the world
You can FEEL the glory in Hakuho's final roar after taking Terunofuji to the clay in that famous bout.
And yet the council is busy fucking him over
The greatest Yokozuna of all time. What a privilege to watch him wrestle. I don’t think his record will ever be broken.
And then they stick him under Isegahama…he’s the brand and the sport they need to recognize what they have still.
There’s a reason his Hakuho cup is successful
I love how he held his daughters hand while getting his knee drained. Shows good restraint in such a powerful man.
Thanks for posting this documentary. Hakuhou will always be the absolute greatest for me. I still feel shivers whenever I see him, from his mere presence. Even if his record is beaten, there will forever only be one Hakuhou. He is the incarnation of Shin Gi Tai, the avatar of the God of Thunder come to Earth to save and rejuvenate Sumo. I'm glad the documentary shows how he single-handedly did just that. In his final bout with Terunofuji, he really looked like Takemikazuchi fighting Takeminakata at the dawn of Sumo. Most of the people who were involved in the litany of scandals that plagued (and still plague) Sumo were (and still are) established Japanese personalities. Yet nobody says "The Japanese are destroying Sumo." Otoh, Hakuhou (or any foreign rikishi) pumps his fist or gets a little carried away in a fight, and you hear all the ungrateful hypocrites at the JSA, in the media and among Japanese fans cry "The foreigners are corrupting Sumo!" That Hakuhou was the one who had to publicly apologize for them so many times and put _his_ face on _their_ corruption and shame was outrageous, yet he still did it without complaining. His class is unparalleled.
He was not greater than Asashoryu and Hakuho is lucky Asashoryu was forced to retire
@@vkvk3525 U again always criticising Hakuho u criticise ppl in every video with Hakuho In it.
@akgd Same for me. Agree with u a 120 % Long Live Hakuho Sho! U will always be my favourite my idol my inspiration my King of the ring. Go go Hakuho!!!
Спасибо за этот комментарии ❤
@@vkvk3525 yup. He was. Even if he didn’t retire, Asahoryu was not beating Hakuho again.
I didn’t expect Asashoryu to say such nice things about Hakuho. They were fierce rivals for years, and if not for a biased JSA they would have been for many more.
@@Stubby1085 Yes, that shows the professionalism from Asa. He was a Yokozuna for a reason.
They were like brothers off the ring. THey knew each other in ulaanbaatar as children before they come to Japan. Their fathers also knew each other who competed in a same sports. THe fathers used to call each other before Hakuha vs Asashoryu bout and bet each other's son. Those information was disclosed in a mongolian documentary about hakuho
He is so obsessively competitive that he can’t just love sumo, he loves sumo “more than anyone”.
One lesson from Hakuho's legendary career is that you can never make certain people like you or not hate you. It will always be their own choice. It takes no reasoning to hate you when they want to.
However, the bigger lesson is that, there are still always things that you can control, and a truly strong person will control all of them - training hard, competing, winning, showing compassion to those in need of help...... in the end, who cares if some preposterous sumo fundamentalist or Japanese nationalist hates him or not? He is loved by many from all over the world, and his acts and own decisions made this happen.
He is really the greatest of all time! ❤
Yes indeed even if he is surpassed one day there will only be one Hakuho Long Live The King Hakuho Shō!
Yes indeed Hakuho is truly the King of the ring 🏅🏆
Well said.
Hakuho is the best to ever do it. LOVE FROM MICHIGAN!
he's not only beloved by Japan he's beloved all over the world no matter what's your nationality is if you became at the top, work hard to keep your spot, thanks you Hakuho for being a Yokozuna in the years I start watched Sumo thank you for making us loving the sport thanks to you I'm in love with Sumo and looking forward to see the who's gonna be the next Yokozuna after Teru, also one of the rikishis who made me love the sport, thank you Hakuho for sharing with us your feelings and I'm sure if you did share this earlier fans would understand but as a Yokozuna you kept your pride and showed no fear on the dohyo or when they criticized you, you showed us how strong a Yokozuna can be and must be on top each time or retire that's the pride of a Yokozuna thank you for being great form the start till the end, Mongolian or not Hakuho you are the current best Yokozuna ever even when you retire you set a record for others to break this should be their next goal you gave them something to fight for a motive so they push themself to reach that goal and set another record.
Damn this was way too much real life drama for a TH-cam video. They really should have released a film about this!
He was initially displaying passion for the sport and wanted to be loved by the Japanese, but disappointments constantly tore him down and he always swallowed up his feelings. Thats how he eventually built his own resolve and philosohpy of what sumo is because he has no other option left: "Do everything for the results in the ring." What forced him to this? Many just don't see what is actually behind the scenes, and dare to launch insults.
the disrespect he has faced is a national embarrassment for Japan. Kisenosato brings hope for an upcoming generation of elders who will respect foreigners and make sumo better.
Hakuho, long live the king, love from India
He doesn’t have to worry, he is loved by the Japanese people. Just listen to the “Arigato” at his retirement ceremony, it says it all!!
Japanese people are really stuck up about accepting foreigners. Hakuho is amazing. He deserves everyone's affections. He's truly the best. I hope he is happy and healthy for the rest of his life.
Watching his rehab on his knee really brings it home - with combat sports in general the training and injury recovery is often the hardest part.
Wow, seeing the footage of his knee injury was really heartbreaking. Respect to the legend for persevering
Great documentary. I wish I watched more of Hakuho's matches, he was the G.O.A.T.
Thank you so much for uploading this! Hakuho retired on my birthday, and I'm really interested to learn more about the career of the greatest Yokozuna
after all hakuho did to pull sumo through the tough times and they still tore him down once he retired
this was a fantastic doc. thanks for posting this.
this was an awesome documentary! Hakuho is the best there ever was. an insane display of raw human force.
This was fabulous, thank you! ❤
Hakuho and Harumafuji will always be my favourites
Brilliant documentary. Loved it.
Wow! The Shodai fight. I love everything about this sport and amazing yokozuna
The GOAT of sumo, cheers
Love it!
Hakuho's career is absolutely amazing
And he's even better as human being than as a sumotori
What a beautiful documentary. Thanks, NHK. Thank you, Hakuho, i was able to glimpse a spark of your fire. Long live Magaki stable.
Thank you for this. I’m crying.
I have been in love with Sumo since I was a kid and later after going to Japan. Hakuho is my favorite!
What a warrior!! This proves no matter what you do you can never please Japanese people let alone the sumo federation.ultimately it’s the wrestlers are the ones making all the sacrifices in sweat and blood. Who are these people to tell them not to smile not to show happiness or celebrate. I will always love sumo but never agree with old people thinking.
Best Documentary ❤ on hakuho 👍
The Greatest Yokozuna all of time
Hakuho has shown that being Yokozuna is following the way of a warrior. Hakuho did like Miyamoto Musashi told in his teachings. That's why Hakuho had 63 consecutive wins almost like Musashi's 62.
One of the greatest Yokozuna sumo ever had…The fact no one can doubt …Thnx for many great moments and god bless you Champ….!
The greatest sumo wrestler 🤼.
Can't imagine sumo without the man.
Most are saying that being an Ozeki is lonely😢. But more are saying that being a Yokozuna is lonelier 😢.
As a mixed blood Japanese I can totally get what Hakuho is up against.
When its like this against you and you are Japanese, and your children too…you realize that the life struggle is all yours, and it seems like its against a whole mindset or culture.
Respect to him
Я из России и смотрела сумо только из-за Хакухо❤
I was thinking about this guy. Im new to sumo and saw his clips. I was thinking today i wish i knew his name so i could watch more videos of him and this got recommended. Nice
Hakuho is the Secretariat of sumo; he is the best at his sport with records that will take a long time to be broken.
The Muhammed Ali of Sumo. A Legend.
what me wonders is...how quick those referees react sometimes.i mean,they are most of the times a "little"older.but for their age,those guys moving quick.
To stand as the best for so long is hard but to do so in a high impact sport makes it the stuff of legend.
Hakuho is a real legend
Very few could say that they stood atop any one thing and felt the same unmitigated glory as that man did. Imagine.
This is fascinating, thank you for sharing this.
What an absolute badass
You know me sitting here in America I never knew this kind of detail into this sport I have a whole new and much deeper respect for this guy and this sport.
The myth, the man, the legend! 白鵬最高!
Thanks for uploading this.
You're welcome, sir.
When you see other sumo wrestlers record, even greats, they win 60% of the time, like 600 wins vs 400 loses. Hokuho was like 1100 wins vs 250 loses, it’s just insane. It would be comparable to a basketball player shooting 80% while other top players hit 50%
simply beautiful
Great video. Thanks. I understand why the fans rooted for the Japanese wrestler. I also understand why that would make Hakuho feel like an outsider, like he doesn't quite belong.
Asashoryu might have been that once in a generation yokozuna, but then along came hakuho. To be fair Asa did help him out a lot.
Despite the fact that they were rivals, they have huge respect for each other, and Hakuho as younger one respects "Davgaa Akh - in Mongolian, an older brother Davgaa" in the traditional Mongolian way. Their respect and friendship have much more deep roots than the Japanese people and media realize! Both guys came from very famous Mongolian wrestling (bukh) families - dynasties: Jigjid Munkhbat - Hakuho's father was a revered Mongolian Grand Champion (Darhan Avarga) (in sumo terms - Yokozuna) and Olympic silver medalist in free style wrestling in 1968, and Asashoryu's father (Dolgorsuren) is the Elephant of the Millenium (one of the most senior ranks) and is the best elephant of the last Millenium in the Mongolian bukh history, and his older brother - Sum'ya-bazar is a Mongolian grand champion, and medal earner in many international wrestling competitions including his bronze in the world championship of sambo and free style wrestling. Their father were very good friends well before both Hakuho and Asa were born!
@@bbatjargal1549 So true, also Hakuho and Asashoryu were already friends when they were young boys.
@@bbatjargal1549 Well said!
Two of the greatest of all time no doubt
crazy underrated video
JSA did him dirty….. HE HAKUHO literally save sumo and they closed his stable…..
Remarkable, endurance reign with true love of Sumo wrestling.❤
Win at any cost!!!!
All the best to Hakuho
A touching story. Thanks
Hakuho fkng best!
He is Sumo's greatest fan!
Legend.
This was fascinating from start to finish. Thank you!
A great Yokozuna
I think Hakuho is slowly preparing his way back home since he is not respected by JSA. Will see.
Legend
This was such a great documentary, it's true Hakuho is a great who will not be surpassed but some use of dubious tactics as his body declines. I still don't really get whether the Japanese love him or loathe him, probably a bit of both. He has what we call white line fever in the west, very nice man when not competing but look out when he was! I particularly enjoyed all the old footage and the history lesson on sumo as well.
He sealed Sumo. G O A T
Make the other documentary of Hakuho the 2 0 years of glory Hakuho sho that one
Hakusho probably needs a total knee replacement not just laproscopic surgery. They basically just cleaned out all the bone chips and inflamed tissue. He needs a new joint to recover.
Hakuho , Terus knees,pelean por orgullo
Its funny that Japan’s national sport is Sumo yet a Mongolian is the greatest ever to do it and most of the Yokozonas are Mongol aswell
On the Hakuo-Kisenosato rematch controversy. why would Hakuo criticize the referee/gyoji who had awarded him the match. The ones he would have been criticizing were the 5 judges/shimpan on the floor, and the judges in the replay booth. For the record, the judges who are also sumo elders have held foreigners to higher standards than native Japanese rikishi.
Recently, those sumo elders stripped Hakuo/Miyogino of control of his stable after a bullying incident, even though other stables had incidents of bullying and there weren't the nearly the same level of punishment.
Well well well....
GOAT
the white fhoenix
please upload this video.
tbs hakuho documentary.
Why is it illegal for stable asters and rikishis to gamble on baseball games?
Sumo is like a priesthood/brotherhood. It has a big ceremonial almost religious component, that you don’t see in Western sports.
who the FUCK is draining his knee? You do that with a nurse so you got two hands on the the.. wut the fuck did I just see?
they call him the bad boy of sumo
No, that title of bad boy went to Asashoryu when his aggressiveness got the best in him.
no they don't....
The G.O.A.T of sumo
Greatest Yokozuna ever
