Description

Tadao Yasuda (安田忠夫, Yasuda Tadao; October 9, 1963 – February 10, 2026) was a Japanese sumo wrestler (rikishi), professional wrestler and mixed martial artist. Known as the "Debt King", he competed in sumo from 1979 to 1992 under the shikona of Takanofuji Tadao (孝乃富士忠雄), achieving the rank of komusubi. After his retirement from sumo, he turned to professional wrestling, in which he competed from 1994 to 2011, most notably in New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), where he was a one-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion. He also fought in mixed martial arts from 2001 to 2003, holding a notable win over Jérôme Le Banner.
