I have to go with a quote from Warren Ellis’ Transmetropolitan:
“Sumo is the most perfect of sports. It has elegance, ceremony, danger, art, speed, and, most important, two fat bastards smacking the **** out of each other. It is immaculate, which is why it has remained essentially unchanged for thousands of years. It remains the only thing in the world that I want to stay static. The only thing I love that loves me back.” (Transmetropolitan Oct 1999, No. 26 Pg 17 — censorship, mine)

Your sumo expert is out to lunch on some of the stuff he says. Kotooshu isn’t even close to 7′.
Try like 6′6″.

Troy. Good point there. That’s what happens when you leave an American like me to try and convert from the metric system. Cheers!
