Sorry for the confusion...wrote 'know' instead of 'now' two times...don't know why... :-) (Sigh...)

I know have a youtube-video with the scene that man was in: Maybe know somebody can identify him. It's possible, he was from Hong Kong...the movie is set there. Maybe this video at least can clarify, whether this guy was a real sumo or only somebody, who acted as a sumo...I think that might be recognizable for people, who have enough background knowledge about Sumo... Thanks for every answer!

Unfortunately he is not in the credits. That's why I'm reasearching... (Neener, neener...) Yamata is the name of his role. I guess it's not his real "sumo name", too.

Does somebody know the name of this man? The picture is from 1975. He did a sumo scene infront of big audience in the movie "Flatfoot in Hongkong". I'm quite sure he was professional at this time.
