  • japans were keep attackin to asa ... they really wished him to get out of sumo..there is statistic in japan, since foreigners (MONGOLS ) started owning sumo the watchers r reduced.. cos no japans are stronger than mongols ;) it was in purpose of sumo association, even when he retired i wanted to comment in sumo association official web site, they ( japans) blocked mongolian line .. can u imagine :) funny small bastards.. if asa stayed in sumo he still fuckin ruling da sumo .. love u asa !

  • hey guys u got good information.. but thing is i have to clearify ( and im mongolian ), brakin the degnity of sumo thing.. dats for sure the story begins little earlier than that bitting guy in the street story..mongols were dominating sumo as a foreigners, u pointed that japans are not high ranking.. dats true 2 existing yokuzunas r mongols. n japans were lookin for good reason to kick out asa from sumo.. in every single small actions takin into account that he is brakin rule of sumo thing..

  • pity for japans...their traditional sport owned by mongolians... even after asa, another yokuzuna hakuho is ruling sumo .. mongols are ruling sumo since they entered to since in early 2000..

  • at around the 9:10-9:15 mark where you're discussing women in religions, were you referring to the vicar of dibley? that's a great show haha.

  • its k its k!!! we all know that he was the best n still the best

  • I'm not going to follow sumo anymore, since Asashoryu ( Dagvadorj-Mongolian name) retired! Most mongolians are not interesting that sumo! I feel sorry for Japs! haha!

  • Is that your natural hair color?

  • @daidouji

    Who me or Dave?

  • @Gimmeaflakeman Well, since I was new to your channel, I must of gotten both of you confused. :-)

  • @daidouji

    I was just pulling your leg. I'm Victor, the guy who is alone at the beginning and end of the video. Oh, and yeah, it's real.

  • Dagvadorj is Asoshoryou's mongolian name.

    Davaajargal is Hakuho's mongolian name.

  • For more detailed story, google,

    "朝青龍問題"

    It has no English sub.

  • Nice video, guys. When I was a student, sumo was regularly broadcast on UK TV, Channel 4. Konishiki was the Big Guy back then. That stuff was fun to watch.

    What else? Oh, yeah. "Episcopalian" and "Anglican" are synonymous. Both terms refer to churches that are members of the "Anglican Communion", which was founded when King Henry VIII of England wanted to get divorced, and the Pope didn't want to let him.

  • Dolgorsürengiin Dagvadorj O_o

  • he caused troubles? oh yea, he just played soccer in mongolia. thats it.

  • The English show you refer to is 'The Vicar of Dibley' - it is hilarious. A very loud, forward, overweight woman is the vicar :)

  • hey u cool man! i loved watching ur video. asashyoryu had a lot of tough times to be yokotsuna. while the other sumo wrestlers werent able to follow hard sumo exersices only he made it. just think about it. japanese must be appreciate what Asashyoryu did for their national sport sumo! instead of hating him. learn how to appreciete you japanese. if Asa was japanese. would they push him out ? i dont think so. he is a fighter. what he did is a normal thing for fighters. i find japanese aliegn

  • @MrZagaa

    "if Asa was japanese. would they push him out ?"

    You bet they will.

  • V - thanks for the sidebar shoutout! You gonna join me in Osaka for March sumo? I know you have your own home-town basho, but Osaka is next! :)

  • You going to the Osaka match? If it's a Sunday I MIGHT be able to join me. THAT would be a cool meet.

  • that would be a good vlog to see!

  • I'll PM you and we'll try to work it out.

  • Hey awesome RoninDave! My old Tennessee buddy. Yay!

  • Anyone know how to watch the matches online? I've been trying to get into sumo, because it looks awesome!

  • No idea. Please ask Jason.

  • Eh, that's okay. Maybe I'll catch it on a tv stream someday. lol

  • It's kinda shallow to assume Asashoryu were disliked for his nationality. Most of the sumo wrestlers in last half century has been non-Japanese and they did not recieved such critisism. I know you guys look down on Japanese morals but if athlete from combat sports were to fight ordinary person, we consider him as a jerk.

  • I was a little disappointed because he's a great sumo in the ring. I never cared for his attitude and some of the things he did, but he really was a great wrestler. It's just so sudden, ...

  • kawaii desu!!!!!!!!!!

  • Very interesting, thanks for that Victor! I often watch the news but dont understand enough to know whats going on, Can you please do more of these :)

  • Great video... pretty interesting.

    I think not being a jerk is just good advice for everyone in all walks of life...

  • You guys are thinking of "The vicar of dibley " lol

  • "Don't be a jerk" lol Great advice.

  • Sorry, I was just doing some trolling.

    I was a bit flabbergasted to hear the news. However I now have another thought since Asasyouryu was a Yokozuna, He should've disciplined himself. And the stable master is the one who take care of all the sumo wrestlers including Yokozunas. If Takasago master had faced Asasyouryu more strictly, Asasyouryu could have become a real Yokozuna. But instead he quit due to his actions. I think the his oyakata should have trained him better.

  • LOL! I will now change my name to J-pan funboys! LOL! Good comment.

  • great video! very interesting!

    but K-1 does have rules :)

  • Hey J-pan funboys.

    Go back to your country and stop leaving your DNA where it is not wanted. =)

  • somebody has to do their part with the declining population but what does that have to do with asashoryu anyway?

  • Ahhhhhh I knew I had tumbled upon something like that! They were talking about his manager I guess on Fuji TV~

  • Would love to see how a Yokozuna handles k1 fighters:D!

  • Yeah, me too.

  • mmm, interesting. For me being a Japanese sumo fan, Ashashoryu's nationality / race / upbringing is not an issue. Yokozuna (the highest rank sumo wrestlers) are expected to have both physical strength and noble character, as a role model who has reached to the goal after hardships. This pretty much says that Yokozuna shall have dignity, discipline or that sort, and they shall be aware of such expectation from people.

    Scandals? No f**king way!

    CAS? He just ruined his career on his own, sad.

  • i remember i was in canada when my sensei told me about the woman trying to enter the ring hahahaha when i went last month i told my friend who's a girl to go for it hahah

  • Interesting. I had no idea it was so dominating in Japanese lives, with headlining news, etc.

    Thanks for posting Victor.

  • k1 isn't big in the states but i am sure people know about it.

    UFC is the top dog and strikeforce and and the other lower ufc one i forgot what it was called wce or something.

    but dream and k1 are not so big.

  • Get big and fat and get woman i'm in gessh i been busting my gut to lose weight to get a girl gessh...

  • He should have refused to resign and taken the case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland. The Sumo Federation falls under the IOC statutes and therefore all Sumo cases can appeal to the CAS court and ignore the Japanese pressure to resign. But he only has 21 days to file and appeal after the decision is made before the CAS window closes.

  • TLDNW

  • I think a conspiracy against Asashoryu could have been possible considering a gaijin could have potentially reached the top rank in history. But then again, probably not.

  • Actually, the guy holding the winning record was a Ukarainian and Japanese half.

  • Um... what record are you talking about? GOt a name?

  • 大鵬 32 championships.

    I was replying to the conspiracy theory thing..

    He was a 1/2 Ukrainian and 1/2 Japanese. You probably know that those with mixed blood are sometimes treated similarly to foreigners in Japan and Sumo world is the most traditional form of Japanese society. Considering that fact, if Taiho's record was respected, I don't see the reason why people hate Asashoryu to break Taiho's record.

  • Thanks for clearing that up for me :P

  • that Ronnin guy is way cooler than the other dude...

    ;p

  • totally off topic, what kind of dog is maggie? french bulldog and something else mix?

  • Just a French Bulldog. Maybe part pig.

  • that show with the female priest is called

    the vicar of dibley

    pretty funny show if u like british comady

    interesting video btw

  • good video.

  • Perhaps the japanese blame Asashoryu's race/nationality for having no dignity because they don't want to get 'personal'? As in: 'He has allways been a bad guy bla bla bla...'

  • Could be.

  • Sweet.

    Nice to see the video after you said you were going to meet him.

  • Yeah, we actually filmed this the first day but got caught up with family duties.

  • are u talking to victor or to who?

  • @moozzii pff.... what's your problem? Get a life and stop hating everyone. If you're not interested - don't watch! Is it so hard not to be a jerk? Damn... Your life must be very sad and lonely...

  • LOL! Don't worry. Moozzii is just just jealous cuz I got to spend so much time with RoninDave.

  • ok, moozzii, you're an idiot. Is that quick enough to the fucking point for you?

  • mother fucker? Look me and your mom, we made love, mad sweet crazy love. I didn't fuck her as you so heartless call it, moozzii. Be respectful!

  • DarthRoninDave: "Moozii, I am your father!"

    ROFLMAO!

  • seriously, does your mommie know you are on the internet using all these bad words? Tell her to wash your filthy mouth out with soap or I won't come by again.

  • careful! they gots ninja guarding the ring now. Your friend might wind up with half a dozen shurikens in her before she could get into the ring. they take that stuff seriously!

  • moozzii=another internet tough guy. dime a dozen. all homophobic talk, no video. zzzzzzzzzzz

  • @moozzii wtf is your problem?? If you don't like them - don't freakin' watch their videos! If you're too stupid to understand that, I fell sorry for you! Nobody cares what you're saying, cause as I've said before you're probably just some pathetic guy, who hates all the world just because you can't get yours right.

    And yes, you are a moron! Even more than that!

  • Great video - can i ask - what was the japanese phrase you mentioned? was it くい違い? thanks

  • 食い違い

    discrepancy

    Thanks!

  • I follow sumo on jasons channel and it's really sad that he quits. And speaking of sumo scandals former yokozuna Akenobo or w(e his name is is causing some controvers cuz he is making commercial films for american comedy serie Glee.

  • Really? I heard Glee is kicking ass. Impressive!

  • I learned a lot about Sumo, though I have no idea where I will use this information. I like listening to you two talk! ^_^ [x]

  • Some day you may meet a large Japanese man, and you'll know how to throw him out of the ring.

  • this was very interesting! yeah u should keep us updated :)

    womanizing... hmm I think it's getting to be less accepted here...

    is sumo more popular than pro wrestling? cuz of that religious conotation to it?

  • Could be right about the womanizing.

  • id love to be able to have long videos for future skits and choose thumbnails but they wont accept me in the first. ask ronin to tell a ghost story!

  • Just apply again. BobbyJudo was told he was not a good candidate, but he got it!

  • すごい、ですね。

  • そう?

  • はい。これは興味深い。

  • good video guys...Jason would kick ass in there i think

  • True.

  • を

  • No.
