The tournament was scheduled to begin on March 13 in the western Japanese city of Osaka, but the sumo association will officially seek its cancellation at an emergency committee meeting Sunday, the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper said. The cancellation will allow more time for an internal probe into the scandal, said the report, which if accurate would be the first time the Japan Sumo Association has cancelled a tournament since 1946. "It's a matter of trust with fans," a senior official at the association was quoted as telling the mass-circulation daily. "The association's top members have been ready to accept (the cancellation)," the unnamed official said. Public broadcaster NHK and the Asahi Shimbun also said that the association was considering cancelling the tournament, but immediate confirmation of the reports was not available. At least three active sumo fighters have for the first time admitted fixing bouts, Japan's education minister, who supervises the sport, said Thursday, condemning an "act of betrayal" of an ancient sport. Match-rigging claims have long stalked sumo, which has its roots in Japan's native Shinto religion and dates back some 1,500 years, but there has never previously been any confession from wrestlers still in the sumo world. In 2000, retired wrestler Keisuke Itai went public with allegations of bout-fixing during his 1978-1991 career. But the association shrugged that off and no serving wrestler had until now corroborated such claims. The sport's cherished image for probity has collapsed following revelations of drug use, extortion linked to underworld gangs and the 2007 death of a trainee who died after being bullied and subjected to violent initiation rites.
