Kaiomitsuki had most of them right in the previous post, even the difficult ones. I almost suspected him to have the same source of pictures, but there's still one wrong guess. Who is it?

(no, I won't tell which yet...)

1.Tochiazuma ?

[Kaiomitsuki]

Yes I think I have the same source of pictures (a beautiful DVD collection (Dripping sweat...) )

and I have open the same topic on Info-sumo.net in january... the last picture to find is page 19...

http://www.info-sumo.net/info/modules.php?...asc&start=0

but there's still one wrong guess. Who is it?

(no, I won't tell which yet...)

I'm sure It's the picture 6,7 or 13 where I'm wrong...

Indeed it is.

Indeed it is. (Blinking...)

[Kaiomitsuki]

7- Masurao ?

[Jakusotsu]

Masurao is Masurao. The problematic one is the youngest.

[Kaiomitsuki]

13

So this little boy is not Chiyonofuji...

.. but this one is the Wolf !

but i really don't know who is the 13 !!!!

Please a clue !!! (Carried away on a stretcher...)

[Asojima]

13

Looks like Kaiho to me. (Carried away on a stretcher...)

[Kintamayama]

13-Tochiazuma. Nope- Kotonowaka.

Disclaimer: Show me a recent photo of Tochiazuma and I may not recognize him. Show me a recent picture of ANYONE and I may not recognize them.

Except Kaihou of course.

Please a clue !!! (Carried away on a stretcher...)

A clue? Ok: even knowing who he is, I can't recognize him at all. (Eating...)

Ok, a better clue: he was on shinpan-duty last basho.
