Ex-Taka-twins activities

Judging a rikishi's strength through MMA skill is like judging a fish's intelligence by their ability to climb a mountain. There's very little that plays to their strengths. Pushing people away is discouraged, even.

Now let's make it a bar room brawl where people can push each other against tables, walls and counters. Etc. Then tell me that sekitori are weak.

Let them drink and it won't even be fair.  Let them have a karaoke remote ...

Not quite a bad relation like the former shisho with his brother: the Taka twins after 6 years are together on a photo again - they trained together

Sudario was interviewed on the channel of boxer Valentine Hosokawa, the news mentioned it because he talked about Takanohana, who pops up all over the media again now

Takakenshin now had his 2nd career win, both this year, after starting his RIZIN career in 2022 with 2 losses, one loss in 2023 and one in 2024 at the traditional big RIZIN event on New Year's Eve.

I have no idea how much an average Rizin fighter such as Takakenshin is paid, but is 2 fights per year really enough to make a living? Or does he do something else for a steady income?
