dada78641 884 Posted May 27, 2017 Ichinojo's match looked like a matta just now...wasn't called though. Am I wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NHK commentary with Isegahama is calling a "tachiokure" on Daishomaru. Even I thought it was a matta, but apparently the gyoji and shimpan thought it was good. As the saying goes, it is what it is.

dada78641 884 Posted May 27, 2017 Well, Ura just got blasted off the dohyo like a fly hitting a shinkansen... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocks 1,804 Posted May 27, 2017 Ura got destroyed. Note to Ura: Don't go low against someone who's low himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WAKATAKE 2,614 Posted May 27, 2017 Should Aminishiki win tomorrow he will become the oldest Juryo yusho winner in the modern era. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dada78641 884 Posted May 27, 2017 My man Hokutofuji beating the maegashira 1, Endo. Hope he can make it to double digits tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocks 1,804 Posted May 27, 2017 Friggin Endo. Has to be the only guy around that can beat 4 Sanyaku and still not get close to a KK. What a joke. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiger Tanaka 218 Posted May 27, 2017 Tamawashi part of some mind games again today and gets henka'd again! Not how he wanted to finish for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WAKATAKE 2,614 Posted May 27, 2017 Both komusubi are KK. When was the last time that happened. Now Mitakeumi has to win tomorrow if he wants that sekiwake promotion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocks 1,804 Posted May 27, 2017 I don't know if you can even call that a henka. Tochi just went up and Tamawashi went down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dada78641 884 Posted May 27, 2017 This is it, Hakuho versus Terrornofuji... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiger Tanaka 218 Posted May 27, 2017 Hak on top of the world again - number 38. Well deserved and now he goes for zensho tomorrow. I hope he does it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dada78641 884 Posted May 27, 2017 (edited) 38 yuusho. Maybe his 13th zensho tomorrow. How long will it be before someone exceeds Hakuho's extraordinary achievements? edit: Not sure about the count, someone can correct me, but I think this means Hakuho needs 11 wins (or 10, if he wins tomorrow) next basho to equal Kaio's record of 1047 wins.

It took 44 years exactly for Taiho's record to be broken. It's going to be a long time my friend. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
autotroph 43 Posted May 27, 2017 Accidentally spoiled myself for the Hakuho bout by refreshing sumodb lol. Nevermind, it was a good bout, Hakuho faking the slap downs before driving. Terunofuji not expecting the dame-oshi either... 38! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dwale 419 Posted May 27, 2017 Well, the fat lady has sung as far as the yusho goes. Hakuho just can't resist being a d*** and gives a blatant late shove. -.- It's things like this that make it impossible for me to like him, however prodigious his talents. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
