Preorder: Tamawashi Ichiro 9 x 12 Print
Sumo is considered to be the national sport of Japan and has a rich history of ancient traditions and rituals. Wrestlers, called 力士 (rikishi), compete in six divisions as administered by the Japan Sumo Association. When a rikishi reaches the second highest division, 十両 (juryō), he is considered to be a professional and earns a salary along with significant privileges. The top division, 幕内 (makuuchi), consists of 42 wrestlers who compete in regular tournaments to win the coveted Emperor's Cup.

Tamawashi Ichiro is a professional sumo wrestler born in Mongolia. Competing for Kataonami stable, he made his debut in 2004 and quickly rose through the ranks with his strong and aggressive style. Tamawashi reached the top makuuchi division in 2008 and has been a consistent competitor among the sport's elite ever since. He holds the record for most consecutive bouts—on September 10, 2024, he completed his 1,631st consecutive match, breaking the record held by former sekiwake Aobajo.
Known for his powerful pushing and thrusting techniques, he earned his first top-division championship (yusho) in January 2019 and a second in September 2022, a rare achievement for a veteran wrestler. His resilience and longevity in the ring has earned him the nickname “Iron Man.”
