Happy Belated Birthday Kaio 魁皇 !
Thursday was Kaio's 36th birthday!
He celebrated with a nice birthday win rich also gave him the kachi-koshi (more wins than loses required to keep your rank!)
Congratulations Kaio on your win, your birthday and your kachi-koshi!!!

Shamelessly I can't find any decent photos of Kaio tonight. This was taken on the first day of the May basho in Tokyo. Kaio with Baruto! Kaio right front!

Another in the match with Baruto. Kaio is facing this way.. :)
