This has yet to be picked up by the sports papers, so take it with a grain of salt I guess - as of about 45 mins ago Tokyo Shimbun reports that Chiyotaikai has decided to call it quits following his loss against Kaio and will be handing in his intai notice this morning Japanese time (i.e. right about now).

Edit: Confirmed, see below.
