robnplunder 828 Posted May 24, 2019 Ain't no way that Asanoyama is going to get the yusho now. But things tend to happen exactly opposite of what I say in this forum. So, there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocks 1,457 Posted May 24, 2019 Jokuryu resorting to the henka and still losing. 2-5. It will be at least 2 more bsho for him to get back to juryo now. Takanofuji wins the makushita yusho! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jakusotsu 3,611 Posted May 24, 2019 That's the most "creative" torikumi making ever as far as I can remember. Even the final senshuraku pairings aren't set in stone yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jakusotsu 3,611 Posted May 24, 2019 Ichiyamamoto and Akiseyama have already exhausted all of my attention span for today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robnplunder 828 Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) What a way to start juryo matches! Akiseyama vs Ichiyamamoto was a marathon. We just may see Ichiyamamoto in juryo in July. Ok, something is up with Takageji, Takanofuji twins. They are combined 18-1 in this basho. They must have found a wonder drug or something.

Rainoyama 1,154 Posted May 24, 2019 How cool would it have been if Takakeisho didn't get injured and won the yusho, Takagenji the juryo yusho and Takanofuji the makushita one ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eikokurai 2,138 Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) Shimanoumi gets his kachikoshi. That’s a satisfying makuuchi debut for him. Enho doesn’t look like he’ll be fit for another shot at his kachikoshi tomorrow. The reversal was the right call – just – but I feel for him. It was one of those bouts nobody really lost.

Shimanoumi has potential, very impressive 3 bashos so far. I agree Enho is done for the basho. But at 7-8 in the worst case scenario, he will stay in makuuchi. He ran into solid Meisei who is at his career best. I look forward to Meisei & Shimanoumi's next basho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eikokurai 2,138 Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) Tochinoshin escapes! That was close. For a moment I thought we were seeing a repeat of yesterday. No, wait ... mono-ii? It seems okay to me, though the replay wasn't the clearest. You have to love the drama though. Edited May 24, 2019 by Eikokurai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shimanoumi got his KK. Look forward to how well he does in July. Enho is done. He ran into Meisei who is at his career best. To make it worse, Enho appears to be seriously injured. Meisei has an outside chance at Komusubi spot. Daishoho got his KK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eikokurai 2,138 Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) This is a looooooong chat. Definitely no heal out. That's clear. So it must be a possible hansoku they're discussing. Edited May 24, 2019 by Eikokurai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
