It seems Takakeisho's height (or the lack of it) and weight is quite an advantage at the moment. It's always said the goal is to push the opponent up, so he looses footing and balance.

He had a strong 6-1 comeback, catapulting him from Sd91 to Sd33. Another 6-1 or 7-0 would mean promotion to makushita.

The sanyaku seem to be in good to perfect shape, except Hak'n'Kak®, no kadoban Ozeki.

If the dynamic duo drops out prematurely, he should be prime candidate for the yusho.

Sorry, you're right, old is the wrong word. Do you prefer ancient or antique?

Just because you look like old Stonecold Steve Austin, doesn't mean...well, forget it ;)

Still don't know why this is a crisis.

1 hair/snip Stop talking about his danpatsu-snippy, you will only jinx him.

The articles always begin with "By Shuji Miki / Yomiuri Shimbun Senior Writer". So i was under the impression that Miki is the first name, too. But i never could figure out if man or woman. Who cares? Good articles!

So these 10 millions don't include his retirement savings as sumotori?

Only 10 million yen? That's peanuts.
