Ichiyamamoto Daiki (Japanese: 一山本大生, born 1 October 1993 as Daiki Yamamoto (山本大生, Yamamoto Daiki)) is a Japanese professional sumo wrestler from Iwanai, Hokkaido. He made his professional debut in 2017, wrestling with the Nishonoseki stable and he won the jonokuchi division championship in his first tournament. He reached the top makuuchi division in July 2021.[1] He did amateur sumo at university but then became a civil servant, and had to get special dispensation from the Japan Sumo Association to join professionally as he was over the age limit of 23.[1] He began his top division career with a win over Ishiura with a rare backwards belt throw, or harimanage.[2]
