In March 1987, Tuli was recruited by former ''sekiwake'' Takamiyama, another Hawaiian, and joined Azumazeki stable, which Takamiyama had founded the previous year. He was given the sumo name of Takamishu. He was unbeaten in his first 14 official bouts, winning two consecutive ''yūshō'' or tournament championships. Weighing nearly , he was one of the largest wrestlers in sumo. In March 1988, he was promoted to the third highest ''makushita'' division, and became the first foreign born wrestler to ever win the championship in that division. In the same month, future ''yokozuna'' Akebono, also from Hawaii, joined Azumazeki stable. As the highest ranking wrestler in the stable, Takamishu was a mentor to Akebono and gave him advice on how to adjust to life in Japan. In March 1989 Takamishu reached his highest ever rank of ''makushita'' 2, and even fought two bouts with elite ''jūryō'' ranked wrestlers. Takamishu was never to reach ''sekitori'' status himself. He did not compete in the following tournament, and retired from sumo in July 1989.
