Yoshiazuma Hiroshi (born 26 May 1977 as Hiroshi Ishihara) is a professional sumo wrestler from Kashima, Kumamoto, Japan. He made his professional debut in January 1996 and reached the top division in September 2011. His highest rank has been maegashira 12. The 15 years it took him to reach the top division is the third slowest progress ever, in the history of professional sumo wrestling. His 4-3 record at makushita 1 in the May 2013 tournament procured him re-promotion to jūryō in July after a one tournament hiatus.
