Hakuho: “Having surpassed that man is nice. Now for some time one should hear no nagging (like100 years early). With this I want to to act big for a while. Hahaha.”
Showing: “V 26” and “43” - both goals reached he had before the basho.

Both yokozuna on the way to Mongolia – with tsukebito (Ishiura): a leisure trip, in all about 10 rikishi from Mongolian origin were on the same plane: Tokitenku, Kyokutenho, Shotenro etc.

Hakuho got the tsuna on the 3rd try, to Kise: “The chance will come”, also calling Endo a handsome man and warning him about getting too much involved with female fans, who should rise in numbers with his popularity and a rise to makuuchi: “If you are careful with that you'll rise high.”
In Mongolia he will be mainly be around baseball teams and according to sponichi also plans to be
only a spectator at a Nadaam event (I guess the one Wanderer wrote about).

元Asashoryu reacting like a grown-up (by way of his management in Japan): “There are more above me. Please avoid conceit or haughty here and devote yourself to sumo.”

kinda funny given that his wife used to hang around Miyagino in her schoolgirl uniform a few years back. Yep, have the photo and was there when her mother pushed her to the front to meet him after asageiko.

Well, there's a difference between "nothing at all" and "not too much and be careful". I think he said the latter, so what's so funny about that?

Isn't there a rule against equal ranks flying on the same plane?

Nice of them to allow the 120cm tsukebito to piggyback through the terminal.

Hakuho was jokingly hinting much in the interview (articles mention celebration sake residue) and wasn't explicit about involvement, that is the interpretation.


He certainly didn't speak against a close relationship, just expressing the usual: Don't get distracted from sumo by becoming a playboy, taking advantage of your good looks and popularity among the many female fans your are about to get.


That is his advice for the way up. He of course didn't add: And when you have reached the top and have a team of advisers and researchers to keep you fit, you can do the things you like - and still get the yusho.

HF will return to Mongolia after the basho, receiving treatment for his chronically injured ankles.

Both yokozuna on the way to Mongolia

Harumafuji will be trying a mud treatment in an onsen resort hotel like Asashoryu did before.

Found a few pictures from this trip.

Hakuho helps Ishiura with his horsemanship.

They also played some basketball with local children. I can't see the style of court catching on with the NBA.

Hakuho with some retired Mongolian wrestlers.

Checking up on the rice he helped to plant during his previous trip to Mongolia.

There's something very satisfying about seeing these guys getting to relax in western style clothing. The basketball court and surroundings also look very cool and almost worthy of a type of desktop wallpaper.
