It seems that the giant fighters of this ancient and noble sport discipline have a particular passion for the cannabis plant, just like us.  Two fighters, Roho and Hakurozan, nickname of the two russian brothers Soslan e Batraz Boradzov (28 and 26 years old) have been found positive to cannabis. But the police didn’t found any trace of cannabis in their apartments, and the two strongly denied the results of the tests. The japanise law consider a crime eve the possession of a small amount for personal use. Another sumo star was suspended from the federation last week, after that a test shows that he used cannabis. We all hope that these bans are temporary, it is too stupid to break the career of someone just because of a joint. Simply too stupid.
