Fighting Style
Tammasuka is proficient in both yotsu-sumo (grappling) and oshi-sumo (pushing and thrusting) techniques. He uses oshi techniques at the beginning of a match to set up his preferred yotsu position, a basic sumo style. His favoured grip on his opponent's mawashi is hidari-yotsu, a right hand outside, left hand inside position. His most often used winning kimarite is yori-kiri (force out), followed by oshi-dashi (push out).

“Land is the only thing in the world that amounts to anything, for ‘tis the only thing in this world that lasts.... ‘Tis the only thing worth working for, worth fighting for—worth dying for.”

“To translate, one must have a style of his own, for otherwise the translation will have no rhythm or nuance, which come from the process of artistically thinking through and molding the sentences; they cannot be reconstituted by piecemeal imitation. The problem of translation is to retreat to a simpler tenor of one’s own style and creatively adjust this to one’s author.”
—Paul Goodman (1911–1972)
