Day 3 results and day 4 pairings

[Doitsuyama 1,173]

The number of undefeated makuuchi rikishi dropped in half as the sanyaku leaders all won with yokozuna Hakuho and the two sekiwake Kotoshogku and Kisenosato. Only three maegashira are at 3-0 with the veteran lineup of Kyokutenho, Aminishiki and Kokkai. Both European ozeki lost with Kotooshu already down to 0-3, while Kakuryu looks a tad too controlled for his own good, already suffering his second loss to a maegashira rikishi. It wasn't a good day for the hopefuls as Takayasu, Masunoyama, Fujiazuma and Tochinowaka all lost today as well as Takanoyama, but at least Yoshiazuma got his first win as a makuuchi rikishi.

Only three rikishi are at 3-0 in juryo with Matsutani, Hokutokuni and Sadanofuji, but Myogiryu got slapped down by Takarafuji. Bulgarian Aoiyama quickly returned from a back injury and fortunately his easy oshidashi win over Shironoryu didn't put much strain on the back.
