Daishōhō Kiyohiro (
Early life and education
Shijirbayar spent his childhood in Ulaanbaatar and was a good student, but was sent to Japan to study after his fourth grade year, with his mother wishing for him to get a better education.[1] While at this new school he discovered sumo and started wrestling. After showing an aptitude for sumo, by junior high school he was asked by fellow Mongolian rikishi Sensho to join Shikihide stable but chose to stay in school. In high school he was introduced to Oitekaze Oyakata who then took him into Oitekaze stable. His shikona of Daishōhō was derived from his stablemaster, with the hō kanji coming from yokozuna Taihō and Hakuhō.[2]
Career
Shijirbayar entered sumo in the January 2013 tournament.
In the March 2019 tournament in
Daishōhō lost his top division status after the November 2019 tournament. After the September 2020 tournament he was demoted from jūryō to makushita. After three tournaments in makushita he returned to the jūryō division after the March 2021 tournament. He returned to the top division in March 2023.[7] In August of the same year, he was the heaviest makuuchi wrestler at 198 kg (437 lb), just behind Mitoryū who was the heaviest active sekitori.[8]
Fighting style
Daishōhō is a yotsu-sumo wrestler, preferring grappling techniques to pushing and thrusting. His most common winning kimarite is a straightforward yori kiri, or force out, and he uses a migi-yotsu grip on the mawashi or belt, with his right hand inside and left hand outside his opponent's arms.[9]
