In the Japanese sumo world, a small giant who has overcome a huge difference in physique in succession is a hot topic. Veteran Urutora (36), known as the lightest weight among active rikishi, is shaking the Japanese archipelago by knocking down giants more than twice as heavy as him.

Japanese media 'InCount' spotlighted, saying, "Urtora of Jonathan (fifth division) set a unique record of decorating all five wins in March with the same technique, Asitori (snatch)."

The overwhelming victory was against Takeda on the 21st, the last day of the tournament. Urutora weighed just 62.5 kg, while her opponent Takeda was 163.2 kg.

It was a physical condition with a weight difference of 100.7 kg, but the result was a major reversal. Urutora, who was in crisis after being pushed into the corner, penetrated into the opponent's arms and snatched his right foot, and rolled 160kg of giant Takeda. According to local reports such as the "Ameba Times," a miraculous reversal in just six seconds led to shouts from the stands.

Urutora's exquisite technique also shone in the match against Kikuchi (123kg) held earlier. Even at that time, Urutora won against Kikuchi, who was nearly twice as heavy as himself, momentarily raised his upper body, lured his opponent, and then dug deep and grabbed his legs to win.

Urutora's record in this tournament is five wins and two losses. In particular, Urutora overcame more than 100kg of weight difference from the Seiseigo match to the Taishi-sho, Kaigyo-sei, Kikuchi, and the last Takeda match. Local fans are pouring praise on it, such as "Ultra's stunt" and "the human victory of a small giant."

Takahashi Toru is also unique in his real name, Uruto. While working without learning sumo professionally during his school years, he belatedly entered the sumo world.

He is also famous for his persistence to drink 5 liters of water just before his physical examination to meet the 67kg qualification standard for Rikishi when he joined the team. Since his debut in 2010, Urutora has been active for 17 years with his early 60kg body despite frequent shoulder injuries and relegation trials.

Uruto is nicknamed because he looks like an ultraman who defeats a monster when he deals with giants fearlessly with his skinny body. Japanese media are surprised, saying, "Urtora, the lightest veteran, is proving that sumo is not just about weight, overwhelming newcomers with skill and speed."
