Day 2 of Seoul and overall champion

[Kintamayama 47,194]

Asashouryuu won the Seoul Jungyo trophy today. He lost today in the finals against his deshi Asasekiryuu, but beat him in the playoff that determined the over-all winner. Korean Kasugaou advanced to the semis today, and lost.

Next bouts will be on the 18th at Pusan. Attendance today: 6721

Well, now one paper says the semis were an all-Mongolian affair, so I guess Kasugaou must have lost his quarterfinal match..

But another paper says he lost in the semis to Kyokutenho. Before that, he beat Tochiazuma by utchari, bringing the local crowd to a frenzy.There is no argument about that..
