Oh wow - Baruto! I had no idea he was that near the top. He is in the news over here quite a bit and all of his fights(are they called fights? matches?) are reported, though I don't know if it's slightly ironic because it's such a foreign sport to Estonia. I remember an Estonian TV show went over to do a story about him and as a part of that they asked random people on the street about him and everyone seemed to know who he is and have an opinion. He really is big in Japan, huh? Crazy.

Between making my previous post and now I happened to walk past a TV and they were showing a news story about Baruto's current tournament with interviews with his mother and his first coach in Estonia. Also a TV crew from Japan had flown here to do a story about him. And apparently Baruto has a sumo school in Estonia as well. I guess it's quite a popular sport over here too.
