Talk:Baruto Kaito

Nickname

Is there a reference for Baruto being dubbed the Leonardo DiCaprio of sumo? I havn't heard this, but its possible because Kotooshu is called the David Beckham of sumo. A google compare of Baruto[1] gives 14 and for Kotooshu[2] gives 150, given thats only searching using english characters for names (but all langauge sites). I'm removing it for now.--Yukata Ninja 18:07, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Blog

I know Baruto keeps a blog. Does anyone have the address of it? Owencunn (talk) 00:56, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

He has married

Russian source [3] and japanese one [4] said that Baruto has married a daughter of restorant-keeper. The restaurant is located near Kokugikan in Ryogoku. It's a VERY traditional match for sumo wrestler ... but restorant is russian. ;) --Bilderling (talk) 15:54, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, Bilderling. A source in English would be good too. There's a thread on the Sumo Forum of course, which us folks at WikiProject Sumo tend to regard as reliable, but a link to a news site would probably be preferable.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 16:47, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

In the absence of anything else in English, I've gone with Sumo Forum and added a line.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 20:21, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Baruto has retired

Japanese news youtube link [5], Estonian news article [6]. Just pointing it out for the active people here.

Yes, his article was changed a few days ago to reflect this. FourTildes (talk) 09:47, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
