[sumo] More on Nakabuchi



Sorry about all the duplicates. I am having problems with Yahoo since my provider got it "integerated" their webmail with Yahoo as it goes through some type of spam controls and filters so I swtiched to Hotmail for a while.

Here's more Nakabuchi, Takanohana Beya's rikishi who passed away:


"We've had long years living together. As a senpai a year old than me, we did a tsukebito duty together. My memory of him is endless," visibly shaken Takanohana oyakata said sorrowfully in front of 100 mourners gathered at the funeral of Nakabuchi (of Takanohana Beya) held on October 21 at the Hosenji Temple in Nakano-ward. Nakabuchi was 32 years old, the same age as Takanohana when he passed away suddenly last week.

According to the Kyokai's Health Clinic Director Hiroyuki Yoshida, the Kyokai will be putting further emphasis on the rikishi's health conditions. He said during their regular physicals in last February, they have identified eight rikishis who fell in a "grey zone" and placed them in the critical watch list. They are doing more regular checkups on them to prevent such a tragedy as Takanohana Beya's Nakabuchi's sudden death last week. "We really need to do more dedicated efforts than ever before," Yoshida said.
