Benihana 1,971 Posted May 23, 2018 (edited) Why not say concussion? Maybe the oyakata forgot because of his own CTE? Edited May 23, 2018 by Benihana typo 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yatagarasu 352 Posted May 23, 2018 Whether it's a genuine herniated disc or an unofficial concussion, either way I'm just glad he is taking the rest given how rough he looked yesterday. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And they are not lying just declaring injuries worsened during the basho. Concussion is no reason to go kyujo for a rikishi - unless in Takanohana-beya and caused by someone else off the dohyo - but it is the reason that Hokutofuji afterwards got or aggravated the injuries cited in the certificate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
