Illegal gambling has been brought to light.
Ozeki Kotomitsuki and Otake Oyakata(=stable master) were fired.
They bet much money habitually.
And 6 Makuuchi Division wrestler is suspended for Nagoya-Basho.
6 wrestlers are Goeido,Toyohibiki,Toyonoshima,Miyabiyama,Wakakoyu and Okinoumi.
I am sumo fans from younger days.
And I had believed wrestlers and his master and all staffs applies themselves to sumo-do.
But some of them are not.
I am really disappointed that now sumo world is full of problems.
This is the last chance for sumo to reborn .
Now sumo world lost its mind.
But Baruto has one.
Dohyo(=ring) is disgraced by Japanese sumo wrestlers.
I have to say sorry to Baruto.
Baruto and other wrestlers are only hope.

Even thou this topic has been analyzed out-and-out I think we still don't know the whole truth. If so many rikishis were involved then it's not a coincidence and I believe they were somewhat unfortunate to get into this trouble. Nevertheless they got their punishment, why then all other wrestlers and sumo fans have to suffer from that. I agree with Hakuho that officials have clearly overreacted on the matter and I hope TV broadcast and prizes will be restored.

Still, good luck Baruto. Good luck to Chuchai san too.
