Asashōryū Akinori
is a Mongolian former sumo wrestler (rikishi). He was the 68th ''yokozuna'' in the history of the sport in Japan and became the first Mongol to reach sumo's highest rank in January 2003. He was one of the most successful ''yokozuna'' ever. In 2005 he became the first wrestler to win all six official tournaments (''honbasho'') in a single year. Over his entire career, he won 25 top division tournament championships, placing him fourth on the all-time list.
From 2004 until 2007, Asashōryū was sumo's sole ''yokozuna'', and was criticized at times by the media and the Japan Sumo Association for not upholding the standards of behaviour expected of a holder of such a prestigious rank. He became the first ''yokozuna'' in history to be suspended from competition in August 2007 when he participated in a charity soccer match in his home country despite having withdrawn from a regional sumo tour claiming injury. After a career filled with a multitude of other controversies, both on and off the ''dohyō'', his career was cut short when he retired from sumo in February 2010 after allegations that he assaulted a man outside a Tokyo nightclub.
==Early life and sumo background==
Asashōryū comes from a family with a strong background in Mongolian wrestling, with his father and two of his elder brothers all achieving high ranks in the sport. He also trained in judo in Mongolia. He originally came to Japan as an exchange student, together with his friend, the future Asasekiryū, where they attended Meitoku Gijuku High School in Kochi Prefecture. They both trained together at the sumo club there.
