That was indeed an extraordinary comeback by Kashiwado but no real reason to think the win over Taiho wasn't legit. Their career head-to-head was actually pretty even. (Taiho had won 11 yusho up to that point, not quite 11 out of 12 tournaments though.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
