Doitsuyama 1,178 Posted May 17, 2010 Shin-ozeki Baruto clinched kachi-koshi, beating veteran ozeki Kaio to stay one win behind yokozuna Hakuho who also had big problems with Kakuryu but came through to get the win in the end. Harumafuji easily beat Wakanosato and is 7-2 now riding a seven win streak. Kotomitsuki also is streaking at five wins, turning a 1-3 to 6-3 and joining stablemate Kotooshu who is modelling his hoshitori with a win-win-loss pattern. Hakuba, Aran and Shimotori won to get the chance for kachi-koshi tomorrow. Juryo almost had a complete wipe-out of the west side as the east side went 13-1 today with only Toyozakura losing to Kotokasuga. Gagamaru was the only rikishi of the yusho leaders on the west side which means that Daido and Kiyoseumi clinched kachi-koshi at 8-1 with Matsutani one win behind and Gagamaru, Bushuyama and Futeno one more back. At the bottom of juryo Kaiho needs to win out now to avoid demotion while fellow juryo-jiri Sadanofuji is 4-5 after a 3-0 start. Kirinowaka is mounting his comeback now, beating Yamamotoyama for his second consecutive win after the 0-7 beginning. Kasugao is 2-7 too, but after a 2-0 start.

Washuyama 639 Posted May 17, 2010 Asasekiryu's uwatenage of Kotooshu was picture-perfect! ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryafuji 811 Posted May 17, 2010 Sholdn't the gyoji have stopped the Hakuho v Kakuryu bout? Hakuho's mawashi was coming undone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harry 67 Posted May 17, 2010 (edited) Sholdn't the gyoji have stopped the Hakuho v Kakuryu bout? Hakuho's mawashi was coming undone. Indeed! I thought we were going to see the 2nd bout ever lost for that particular kimarite! Edited May 17, 2010 by Harry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 Posted May 17, 2010 Good win for Baruto. Good tachi-ai from him (for a change), tries to grab belt but Kaio counters it, but gets a win anyway. I hope he shows more tsuppari sumo like last basho, tries to be more agressive. Asasekiryu's uwatenage was indeed perfect ;-) Kotooshu was out-sumoed. Same for Miyabiyama, outworked Tochinoshin. Great sumo. Bad loss for Kisenosato. He is very agressive this basho, sometimes it pays off, sometimes not. But 5-4 is not bad for him, he already has met most of highrank rikishi, i think only Hakuho, Baruto left from highrank. Should get KK easly at the end. Hakuho against Kakuryu was a treat. Great bouts today. Hakuho showed who is the yokozuna. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Washuyama 639 Posted May 17, 2010 Sholdn't the gyoji have stopped the Hakuho v Kakuryu bout? Hakuho's mawashi was coming undone. I think he was waiting for them to "rest" before pausing the bout, but there wasn't a chance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
