He made his professional debut in January 1989, and reached the top division in November 1994. His highest rank was maegashira 1. He defeated Takanohana twice in 1998 to earn his only two kinboshi for a yokozuna upset. His stablemaster, former sekiwake Aonosato retired in November 2000 and he moved from Tatsutagawa stable to Michinoku stable. He retired in May 2001 after being diagnosed with a heart ailment, and has remained in sumo as an elder of the Japan Sumo Association and coach at Michinoku. He has borrowed a succession of elder names since his retirement. Since 2013 he has been known as Urakaze.[1] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4He did judo while at high school, joining Tatsutagawa stable in January 1989 just before graduating. Following him into the stable two months later was the future maegashira Toyozakura. He initially fought under his own surname of Yoshitane. Progressing up through the lower divisions he stalled for a time after his makushita debut, falling back to sandanme, but he won the makushita division championship or y\u016bsh\u014d in January 1992 with a perfect 7\u20130 record. In May 1993 he won promotion to j\u016bry\u014d, about four years after his professional debut. To mark his ascension to sekitori status he was given the new shikona of Shikishima. His first j\u016bry\u014d tournament was unsuccessful, as a 3\u201312 record sent him back to makushita, but he returned to the second division after the September 1993 tournament and in March 1994 won the j\u016bry\u014d championship with a 12\u20133 record. In November of the same year he reached the top makuuchi division for the first time, but he moved back and forth between the two divisions before finally establishing himself as a makuuchi regular after the May 1996 tournament.In March 1998 he reached what was to be his highest career ranking of maegashira 1, and earned his first kinboshi for a yokozuna upset on the fourth day when he defeated Takanohana. His second and final kinboshi came in the next tournament with another defeat of Takanohana. However despite appearing in makuuchi for 28 tournaments, he was never able to reach the sanyaku ranks. His overall win rate in makuuchi was around 43 percent, with 175 wins against 228 losses, compared to an overall career win rate of just under 50 percent (416 wins against 418 losses). In July 2000 he lost his top division status when he could score only 3\u201312 at maegashira 12.In November 2000 his stablemaster, the former Aonosato, reached the mandatory retirement age of 65, and Tatsutagawa stable closed. Shikishima and his stablemates moved to Michinoku stable, from the same ichimon or stable grouping of Tokitsukaze. In January 2001, ranked at j\u016bry\u014d 5, he had to withdraw on just the second day due to a cardiac function disorder, which was so serious he risked death if he continued to compete. He was forced to miss the rest of that tournament and all of the next, falling to the lower end of the makushita division. By May 2001 his condition had recovered to the point where he could live without problems in daily life, but he decided not to risk competing again and announced his retirement.

He said he had lost 30 kilograms (66\u00a0lb) in a month and urged active rikishi to learn from his mistakes and not overeat or overdrink.[2] He began his career as an elder or toshiyori of the Japan Sumo Association under his old fighting name of Shikishima, but in January became the 14th Tatsutagawa, although the real owner of the name was his former stablemate Minatofuji. After the lifting on the ban of borrowing elder names, he vacated Tatsutagawa and went through a succession of others , becoming Fujigane, Nishikijima, Onogawa, Tanigawa and Ajigawa, before finally acquiring the Urakaze elder name in January 2013. He has remained working as a coach at Michinoku stable under that name since then. For a long time he was in charge of running the Kyushu tournament in November of each year, but retired from those duties in 2013. From May 2014 he has served on the judging committee, and received a promotion in the Sumo Association’s hierarchy in May 2016 from toshyori class to iin class.Fighting style[edit]Shikishima was a yotsu-sumo wrestler, who preferring grappling techniques rather than pushing or thrusting. His favoured grip on his opponent’s mawashi was hidari-yotsu, a right hand outside, left hand inside position. His most common winning kimarite was yori-kiri, a straightforward force-out.Career record[edit]Shikishima Katsumori[3]Year in sumoJanuaryHatsu basho, TokyoMarchHaru basho, OsakaMayNatsu basho, TokyoJulyNagoya basho, NagoyaSeptemberAki basho, TokyoNovemberKy\u016bsh\u016b basho, Fukuoka1989(Maezumo)West Jonokuchi #326\u20131\u2013P\u00a0East Jonidan #905\u20132\u00a0West Jonidan #474\u20133\u00a0West Jonidan #213\u20134\u00a0East Jonidan #404\u20133\u00a01990West Jonidan #104\u20133\u00a0East Sandanme #804\u20133\u00a0West Sandanme #605\u20132\u00a0East Sandanme #276\u20131\u00a0East Makushita #502\u20135\u00a0West Sandanme #122\u20135\u00a01991West Sandanme #365\u20132\u00a0East Sandanme #113\u20134\u00a0West Sandanme #285\u20132\u00a0East Sandanme #34\u20133\u00a0East Makushita #493\u20134\u00a0East Makushita #564\u20133\u00a01992West Makushita #467\u20130Champion\u00a0East Makushita #52\u20135\u00a0East Makushita #192\u20135\u00a0East Makushita #314\u20133\u00a0East Makushita #255\u20132\u00a0West Makushita #144\u20133\u00a01993East Makushita #86\u20131\u00a0West Makushita #14\u20133\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #133\u201312\u00a0East Makushita #106\u20131\u00a0East Makushita #14\u20133\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #128\u20137\u00a01994East J\u016bry\u014d #86\u20139\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #1112\u20133Champion\u00a0East J\u016bry\u014d #37\u20138\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #59\u20136\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #39\u20136\u00a0East Maegashira #165\u201310\u00a01995West J\u016bry\u014d #49\u20136\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #210\u20135\u2013P\u00a0East Maegashira #167\u20138\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #38\u20137\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #15\u201310\u00a0East J\u016bry\u014d #69\u20136\u00a01996West J\u016bry\u014d #38\u20137\u00a0West J\u016bry\u014d #110\u20135\u00a0East Maegashira #1510\u20135\u00a0East Maegashira #116\u20139\u00a0West Maegashira #148\u20137\u00a0West Maegashira #117\u20138\u00a01997East Maegashira #159\u20136\u00a0West Maegashira #118\u20137\u00a0West Maegashira #76\u20139\u00a0West Maegashira #108\u20137\u00a0East Maegashira #76\u20139\u00a0West Maegashira #108\u20137\u00a01998East Maegashira #78\u20137\u00a0West Maegashira #13\u201312\u2605West Maegashira #68\u20137\u2605West Maegashira #34\u20139\u20132\u00a0West Maegashira #7Sat out due to injury0\u20130\u201315East Maegashira #77\u20138\u00a01999East Maegashira #89\u20136\u00a0West Maegashira #21\u201314\u00a0West Maegashira #118\u20137\u00a0West Maegashira #78\u20137\u00a0East Maegashira #43\u201312\u00a0West Maegashira #108\u20137\u00a02000East Maegashira #57\u20138\u00a0East Maegashira #64\u201311\u00a0West Maegashira #106\u20139\u00a0West Maegashira #123\u201312\u00a0East J\u016bry\u014d #58\u20137\u00a0East J\u016bry\u014d #47\u20138\u00a02001West J\u016bry\u014d #50\u20132\u201313\u00a0West Makushita #3Sat out due to injury0\u20130\u20137West Makushita #43Retired0\u20130\u20131Record given as win-loss-absent\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Top Division Champion\u00a0Top Division Runner-up\u00a0Retired\u00a0Lower DivisionsSansh\u014d key: F=Fighting spirit; O=Outstanding performance; T=Technique\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Also shown: \u2605=Kinboshi; P=Playoff(s)Divisions: Makuuchi \u2014 J\u016bry\u014d \u2014 Makushita \u2014 Sandanme \u2014 Jonidan \u2014 JonokuchiMakuuchi ranks:\u00a0Yokozuna \u2014 \u014czeki \u2014 Sekiwake \u2014 Komusubi \u2014 MaegashiraSee also[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Wikimedia ErrorOur servers are currently under maintenance or experiencing a technical problem.Please try again in a few\u00a0minutes.See the error message at the bottom of this page for more\u00a0information.
