Turner, I think that there are a few foreign sumo wrestlers in Japan. A couple are from Hawaii (Konishiki and Akebono). I also heard of one being from Eastern Europe.

Nice roundup. I’d also love to read an article on the history of foreign participation in the sport – we’ve only got two or three professionals in Japan, right?
