Wakanohō Toshinori
Wakanohō Toshinori (born July 8, 1988 as Сосла́н Алекса́ндрович Гагло́ев ''Soslan Aleksandrovich Gagloev'' in Alagir, Republic of North Ossetia–Alania in the Russian Federation) is a former sumo wrestler of Ossetian ethnicity. His highest rank was ''maegashira'' 1. He became the first active wrestler to be dismissed from sumo, after being arrested for possession of cannabis in August 2008. He has also played college football at the University of South Florida, Webber International University, and Warner University. As of July 2014, he lives in Florida and is training for the National Football League.
==Career==
He was a freestyle wrestler in Russia, but as his weight continued to increase past the upper limit for competitions, he switched to sumo. Having known fellow Russian sumo wrestler Rohō for many years, when he first arrived in Japan he stayed at Rohō's training stable, Ōtake-beya, for about six months to learn the basics.〔 Due to the restrictions on foreigners, he could not join that stable, but its stablemaster Taihō had connections to the former Wakanohana Kanji II, and he joined Magaki stable instead.〔 His ''shikona'' of Wakanohō was formed as a combination of Wakanohana II and Taihō's names.〔
Wakanohō made his professional debut in March 2005. He moved through the lower divisions quickly, winning the championship in the ''jonidan'' division in May 2005 with a perfect 7-0 record. It took him a year to climb up the third ''makushita'' division and in November 2006 a 4-3 record at ''Makushita'' 1 East earned him promotion to the second ''jūryō'' division and elite ''sekitori'' status. At 18 years and five months, he was the youngest foreign born wrestler to do so. In his ''jūryō'' debut he managed only five wins against ten losses, his first ever ''make-koshi'' or losing score and was demoted. However, he returned to the second division in May 2007 and three solid performances of 10-5, 8-7 and 10-5 earned him promotion to the top ''makuuchi'' division in November 2007. He was the sixth youngest wrestler to reach ''makuuchi'' in the modern era. He came through with nine wins against six losses in his top division debut, and a 10-5 mark in January 2008 saw him move into the upper ''maegashira'' ranks for the March 2008 tournament. Fighting all the top ranked wrestlers for the first time, he defeated ''ozeki'' Kaiō and secured his ''kachi-koshi'' or winning record on the final day.
During the May 2008 tournament he was reprimanded by the Japan Sumo Association after he smashed a door in the dressing room following a defeat to Ama by the technique of ''utchari.'' However he once again secured his majority of wins on the final day, his fourth straight ''kachi-koshi'' in the top division. However, in the July 2008 tournament, fighting from what was to be his highest rank of ''maegashira'' 1 he lost his first eight bouts and finished on 4-11.
