Asashoryu is a sumo grand champion and one of the most successful sumo fighters in history. His real name is Dolgorsurengiin Dagvadorj; Asashoryu is his fighting name. He was born in Mongolia in 1980 and is the first Mongolian to reach sumo’s top position of yokozuna, which means grand champion. He is also the most successful non-Japanese ever to enter the sumo ring.
朝青龍榮獲了相撲界的冠軍(橫綱),他也是歷史上最成功的相撲選手。他的真名叫作Dolgorsurengiin Dagvadorj;朝青龍是他在相撲界的名字。1980年,朝青龍出生于蒙古,他也是蒙古國(guó)首個(gè)榮獲橫綱的相撲選手(總冠軍)。他還是非日籍相撲選手中最成功的一位。
Asashoryu grew up with wrestling in his blood. His father and brothers are all fighters. He moved to Japanas an exchange student to study Japanese and quickly developed a passion and great talent for sumo. In 1999, he joined a leading sumo stable (team) and fought his way up through the ranks.
朝青龍從小就有格斗的天賦。他的父親和兄弟都是格斗士。他曾經(jīng)是一名日本交換生,在日本學(xué)習(xí)日語(yǔ),他迅速對(duì)相撲產(chǎn)生了濃厚的興趣,并且他天賦異稟。1999年,他參加了頂級(jí)相撲隊(duì),他的排名也逐漸攀升。
Asashoryu could well become the greatest sumo fighter ever. He is closing in on the all-time greats for the number of championships won. He holds the record for winning the most fights in one year. In 2005 he wonan impressive 84 out of 90 fights and all six championships. Victory in the final tournament of 2004 meanthe won seven in a row – another record.
朝青龍很有可能是最偉大的相撲選手。他獲得過(guò)多次冠軍獎(jiǎng)杯,這也使他幾乎成為了歷史上最偉大的相撲選手。他還保持著一年內(nèi)獲得勝利最多的記錄。2005年,他在90場(chǎng)中獲得了84場(chǎng)的勝利,以及所有的6項(xiàng)總冠軍獎(jiǎng)杯。2004年的最后一場(chǎng)錦標(biāo)賽他也獲得了勝利,這就意味著他連續(xù)獲得了7項(xiàng)錦標(biāo)賽冠軍,這又是一項(xiàng)記錄。
Asashoryu has a huge following, but he has also upset sumo’s traditionalists. Many people love him because he goes against the grain, but others say he’s bad for sumo. In 2007, he became the first yokozuna in history to be suspended from competition. He has a history of bad and unsportsmanlike behaviour. Regardless,he continues to create a lot of interest in the sport.
朝青龍有許多追隨者,但是他卻激起了相撲傳統(tǒng)主義者的反感。他的獨(dú)樹(shù)一幟讓他獲得了許多人的鐘愛(ài),但是還有許多人認(rèn)為他對(duì)相撲產(chǎn)生了壞影響。2007年,他成為了首個(gè)被禁賽的橫綱選手。他也曾經(jīng)做過(guò)許多違反職業(yè)法規(guī)的事情。盡管如此,他仍然對(duì)相撲運(yùn)動(dòng)充滿(mǎn)興趣。
