In the world of sumo, only the greatest sumo wrestlers achieve the prestigious title of yokozuna. But some incredible ozeki — especially sumo foreigners — came so close that many fans believe they deserved it. From the powerhouse Kotooshu, to the legendary Konishiki, the mighty Baruto, and the unforgettable Tochinoshin, these champions left a huge mark on sumo wrestling history. In this video, we look at their careers, their biggest victories, and why they never became sumo yokozuna despite having the talent, strength, and spirit to do so.
