Description
The Japanese react as Sumo's greatest-ever champion Hakuho has decided to retire over persistent knee trouble, Japanese media reported Monday, leaving a gaping hole at the top of the ancient sport. "He worked really hard," says one Tokyo resident, "coming all the way to Japan, becoming a sumo wrestler and a Yokozuna champion. It's not very easy to achieve all that." IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
