Day 7 results and day 8 pairings

[Doitsuyama 1,156]

Yokozuna Asashoryu continues to avoid kinboshi this basho with a solid win against Tamanoshima. He his leading one win ahead of Chiyotaikai who made short work of Kaiho. Jumonji is also 6-1 after impressive two bouts against Akinoshima, both displaying good sumo. No Makuuchi yusho arasoi here unless Asashoryu gets a loss and things are a bit messy at the top.

Takanotsuru and Shimotori continue their slump, and at the current rate they are prime candidates to follow Takanowaka in the Juryo division.

In Juryo all leaders lost with Tochisakae and Kasuganishiki in Makuuchi, so now seven rikishi are leading with two losses with another seven one win behind.
