The future of sumo was on full display Saturday as the 70th All Japan Sumo Championships took place at Tokyo's Ryogoku Kokugikan.

Daiki Nakamura, a third-year student from Nippon Sport Science University, improved on his semifinal finish from last year, taking home the title of 2021 amateur yokozuna and continuing his school’s recent run of dominance in the sport.

With this championship, Nakamura earns the right to join ōzumo at the rank of makushita 15, while all wrestlers that made the final eight can start at sandanme 100 if they decide to turn pro.
