The Fat Cyclist

How typical of the Pacific league that I need to sign up & take a subscription to follow that link. Not only that but it isnt even possible in the EU or UK. It's almost as if they dont want people to watch their games /rant Thanks to @Akinomaki for posting the Youtube link.

Wow. Arawashi. A rikishi I have to admit I'd completely forgotten.

Ah, Pooh Great performance by the next Yokuzuna though

Yes it's a great debut performance. I just wish he didnt stare at the dojo so much during his bouts. I cant help but think that looking at your opponent a bit more would be helpful. But he's still winning so what do I know :)

I was more invested in that than any recent bout

That caught me too. I blame my age :)

Come on Hoshoryu. You must have known he was going to henka. Hell even I knew it was coming

Yesterday he went straight for the belt ignoring what his opponent was doing. Today he made sure to deal with the initial charge before trying to win.

I know what you mean. I certainly wish him all the best & wonder what his future plans are.

I had to look it up

Exactly that regarding Onosato. He went for the pull far too quickly. Thats a habit he needs to stop.

Pooh. I was hoping for some better TV coverage. It does seem odd to come to Europe & then make it really difficult to watch the regular tournaments.

John admitted he got the date wrong & thought the announcement was today.

Ooh. Interesting. As long as whatever is announced is better than the selected highlights on NHK world I will be happy.

Today is the day I discovered that there is a limit on daily reactions. So I'll say thank you here :)
