I just looked at the Wikipedia page for Terunofuji and there's something quite amusing there. It says that he and Ichinojo moved from Mongolia to Japan at the same time and entered the same high school. Later, when
they had turned professional, Itchy actually made sanyaku (11/2014) two
basho before Teruno did (3/2015). Teruno is quoted as saying "What
matters is who will make it to the ozeki rank first." Two basho after
that (7/2015), Terunofuji was ozeki — and we know now that Ichinojo will never reach that rank.
