Musashigawa stable

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Musashigawa stable is a stable of sumo wrestlers, one of the Dewanoumi group of stables. It was set up in 1981 by former yokozuna Mienoumi, who branched off from Dewanoumi stable.^[1] By the early 2000s it had become the strongest stable in sumo, with a yokozuna, three ozeki and several other top division wrestlers. As of November 2007, it had 25 sumo wrestlers.
