[QUOTE="Swami, post: 148878, member: 13"] Takekaze decides to retire Details Written by Tachiai.org Published: 22 January 2019 Hits: 27 [IMG]http://www.cibersumo.com/images/rikishis/Takekaze01.jpg[/IMG] 39 years old veteran Takekaze, after having finalized his make-koshi on day 9, was faced with a drop to Makushita (which would have been all but certain with a 9th loss). Yesterday he said “I didn’t get here alone so I cannot make the decision alone”, but apparently he consulted with the powers that be, and came to the decision to retire. Takekaze joined sumo in Natsu 2002 as a Makushita tsukedashi. He made his debut in Makuuchi in Haru 2003 and had no less that 590 wins there. Takekaze owns a kabu, and will remain in the NSK as Oshiogawa oyakata. It is not clear as yet whether he will retire immediately or at the end of the basho. Swami [/QUOTE]
