Old Shatterhand is dead

"Ozeki Toyonoryu recommended for Yokozuna position by the Sumo Yokozuna Deliberation Committee+ what is this Toyonoryu? Would it be his new shikona or is it just another bug in Google translation?

Onosato’s hair is still not long enough to make an oichomage. If he promoted ozeki for Kyushu would he be the first ozeki without oichomage?

And I would like to know which country they were from although I think eventually we all know the answer.

Very honestly asking what the heck do you see in Atamifuji's sumo? I can't understand this hype around him. I feel like when Chiyotairyu burst into the sumo world and was proclaimed the next yokozuna.

in this match, the only sign of his total wear and tear was his impatient expression, which he almost shouted: "give me the damn envelopes Shonosuke, let me get up already, I can't squat here for five more seconds while you bark my name!"

1/10. business as usual, the next 9 attempt is going to be failed

I did. I was almost 100% certain. The Atamifuji bandwagon is slowing down. But there is still time to accelerate.

Akua is the rikishi who can lose in the most spectacular way.

Thanks!

What the heck is hafu? Can’t figure it out…

“That, and Atamifuji doesn't quite have any hallmarks of greatness yet - he feels more like a Tokushōryū who lucked into the cup rather than someone whose time is surely coming, like Hakuōhō or Ōnosato.” These are exactly my thoughts too.

Hokuseiho eventually performs one proper tachi-ai.

and yet it is a bad banzuke luck. what he would deserve and what he could get are two different things. In lucky circumstances even with those last day kachi koshis could have been resulted a sekiwake promotion for him. So basically I agree with you he is not on sekiwake level yet but in lucky circumstances he could have been promoted.

4 consecutive basho in komusubi is nothing else but bad banzuke luck.

I found this issue again today. Still quite slow.
