Qwerry

Seems like <<YDC meeting after Haru 2021>> don't need already. Hakuho misses the May tournament. And now only Kakuryu can do yoko-dohyo-iri. Oh sorry, he can promise to do it.

Wow. For this it was definitely worth coming to a special training.

34 may be not enough. But 35 - unevaded shot. And just look on the post of Isegahama...

No Kakuryu I see

What a shamefull system. Kensho just putting on last bout without any considerations. :( Big shame on the heads of these promiscuous sponsors...

It just seemed that a month ago he was in a positive mood and was seriously preparing for the tournament. And after receiving the documents... he only created an appearance. I'd be glad to be wrong, but it looks like he won't even try.

Pfft ... Looks like his health suddenly deteriorated after the change of citizenship. It is a pity that the news did not arrive a month later.

I just want to remind you that he can only volunteer. In addition, he will not be cut for more than six months after his resignation. And I don't see much difference whether he will be officially retired at that time or not.

On the one hand, you will always be called EX-sekiwake (for example), even after retirement and even for one tournament in this rank. on the other hand, there are a little more than 100 cup holders, and your portrait will hang over the kokugikan for several years. Hmm ... For me, the choice is obvious - the cup!

1. It is very unusual to read about such early preparation. Covid... changed a lot. 2. I am very surprised that Japanese citizenship is so difficult and long to obtain. More like Kakuryu didn't really want to get it.

Maybe 2015.01? http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Query.aspx?show_form=0&amp;group_by=basho&amp;g_op=<=&amp;having=1&amp;form1_yd=on&amp;offset=400

31 win + fusen=ozeki? Noooo... I don't think so. We have long pause in may, we don't have yoko's on last tournament. Too easy for Shodai. I hope he will be just official candidate(with 10 more wins) in november.

Yeah. Seems like old reсords disagree with my theory. :(

I think Terunofiji will receive an additional sekiwake slot if he earns more than 10. Because if he gets 9-6 or 8-7 next basho, he still needs to be lifted in sekiwake, but opening an extra slot for 9/8 wins = setting a bad precedent. Better solve the problem in advance. o/

Tokyo is a big city. This is a small number. No need to create a panic.
