Professional sumo divisions
Professional sumo is divided into 6 ranked divisions. Wrestlers are promoted and demoted within and between these divisions based on the merit of their win/loss records in official tournaments. For more information see ''kachi-koshi'' and ''make-koshi''. Wrestlers are also ranked within each division. The higher a wrestler's rank within a division is, the stronger the general level of opponents he will have to face becomes. According to tradition, each rank is further subdivided into East and West, with East being slightly more prestigious, and ranked slightly higher than its West counterpart. The divisions, ranked in order of hierarchy from highest to lowest, are as follows:
==''Makuuchi''==
(詳細はyokozuna'', ''ōzeki'', ''sekiwake'' and ''komusubi''. There are typically 8-12 wrestlers in these ranks with the remainder, called ''maegashira'', ranked in numerical order from 1 downwards.
This is the only division that is featured on standard NHK's live coverage of sumo tournaments and is broadcast bilingually. The latter part of the lower divisions is shown on satellite coverage.
The name ''makuuchi'' literally means "inside the curtain", a reference to the early period of professional sumo, when the top ranked wrestlers were able to sit in a curtained off area prior to appearing for their bouts. Possibly confusingly, ''makuuchi'' can also refer to the top two divisions ''makuuchi'' and ''jūryō'' as a whole, as the wrestlers in these divisions are salaried and considered professionals as opposed to "in training".
