M16 Tamashōhō (L)
M16 Kagayaki (R)
Watch this move. Deserves a better name than HATAKIKOMI.
Veterans both. Man-kun aka Tamashōhō was the longest serving Mongolian to never make sekitori at one point, but got his act together and is finally dipping a toe in makuuchi. I had many chances to talk to him when he was in the lower ranks, ahem, looking to stay there a while. Most genuine, nice person you’d ever meet. And veteran Kagayaki has yoyo-ed back into makuuchi. #hatsubasho2025
