Knee injury and diabetes the official reason. "His sugar levels have risen lately but I have no idea why.. He has been ale to train well lately. He will continue training while out of the tournament. He is in much better shape than he was before the last basho. Even today he was training.. Not enough though to enter the basho. He really wanted to enter but he himself understood that his tachiai is not up to par yet, nothing like it was in the past. He was complaining mostly about that. He still needs to work on his lower body strength. His upper body is in good shape. He is optimistic, since he is able to train much more than before. He will eventually bring himself up to par. He will definitely be joining the Haru jungyo after the basho," explained Isegahama Oyakata.
