Who are these rikishi? (all photos from August 2019)

Recommended Posts

Could the guy in the first picture be from Juryo?  He's wearing what looks like a cream color training mawashi but I don't recognize him as being from Makuuchi.

First guy Kagayaki?

He has the same type of knee wrapping, and the same, well, you know (Laughing...)

That is right, thank you very much - I should have had the idea myself, because I took a better Kagayaki-photo on the same day but didn't realize that the sitting guy is the same person

2nd pic , (left side) the Rikishi on the right is Musashiumi from Fujishimabeya.

Thank you very much - I would have never recognized him without your help, because I'm happy even to recognize the rikishi of the makuuchi and juryo division

Thank you very much for your efforts but according to the shape of ears and hairlines I got the impression that the two are not Kotonawa and Kototaiko. I also think they are younger than midtwenties.

The upper spectacle wearer looks more like Sakaekaze (Ogurumabeya) than one of Sadogatake beya.
