Day 6 results and day 7 pairings, Makuuchi and Juryo

[Doitsuyama 1,161]

Yokozuna Harumafuji is the first sole leader of the basho as Kitataiki not unexpectedly couldn't stay in the yusho race for long. Hakuho stayed close with a win over Kyokutenho, but Goeido suffered a loss to Tochiozan, not an easy opponent for him. The six maegashira at one loss had an even split, making lowly Shotenro, Takarafuji and Tochinowaka the remaining rikishi at one loss behind the lead.

The juryo division continues to be very egalitarian as Oiwato is the sole leader at 5-1 followed by eleven rikishi at 4-2. I suspect the yusho arasoi would likely be less close with random results in the bouts so far. Takanoiwa had some difficulties in his three basho in low juryo so far but this basho he is looking better and he improved to 4-2 with a nice win over Homarefuji.
