I can find only one instance of a makuuchi yusho won by a kyujo rikishi: Wajima in Kyushu 1973. Could Hakuho makes it happen in Kyushu 2018? I mean, on paper, the current joi doesn't appear very threatening. The last few matchups Hakuho has faced Goeidou on day 14. Let's say Hak goes 12-0, then declares kyujo on day 12 or 13. He probably gives Kise a YBSC fusen gift and denies Goeidou his fusen win, he skips even facing Goeidou, and yet still takes home yusho 42. Ka-pow! A delicious conspiracy chanko* is served. *Caution: chanko may contain nuts. He misses day 1-15, shows up at the yusho ceremony and just takes the pot. He's the GOAT, who's gonna stop him? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depending how he fares against Kokugikan security guards, he may kick himself for not competing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
