Akinomaki 41,708 Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) For Kyushu the dohyo-iri today at the Sumiyoshi shrine in Fukuoka had about 4700 spectators. Hakuho now has new makuuchi Ishiura in the team. Ishiura for his first time as tsuyu-harai hadn't watched videos or the like and just did it without preparation - and he was nervous: "I just faced straight forward and didn't react when my shikona was called. The yokozuna gave me an "Oh!" but I wasn't able to react." http://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/1732811.html tachi-mochi was Tamawashi Kakuryu with Ikioi and Sokokurai Harumafuji with Takarafuji and Daishomaru Edited November 2, 2016 by Akinomaki 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
