Pioneering US-born sumo wrestling champion Akebono dies aged 54.
“Widely considered to have blazed a trail for other foreign sumo wrestlers, the 54-year-old died of heart failure at a hospital in Japan.
Born Chad George Ha’aheo Rowan in Hawaii, Akebono became the first non-Japanese yokozuna – a sumo grand champion, the highest rank in the sport.”
“He led the sumo boom as the 64th yokozuna, and achieved many accomplishments, including winning 11 championships.”
I followed his career from the start. Nice guy. |
Later known for his successful brake pad line
