Biography
Daigō Kenshi (born 23 May 1952 Noburu Itakura) is a former sumo wrestler from Yamamoto, Akita, Japan. He made his professional debut in May 1966 and reached the top division in November 1975. His highest rank was maegashira 11. Upon retirement from active competition he became an elder in the Japan Sumo Association. He was forced to leave the Sumo Association in September 1988, as the Kitajin elder name he was using was needed by the retiring sekiwake Kirinji.
