He bruises up quickly.

Slo mo would be the reason.

Having never thought about it or timed them, how long are your daily digests Kinta?

He has resigned.

Ozeki v Komusubi 14th day

So now we know Day 13 Takayasu v Daieisho, Takakeisho v Aoiyama

Asanoyama is next ranked he could meet but today trying to avoid MK.

So Takayasu now has Mitakeumi and Takakeisho to fight. Who else would be a possibility? Daieisho, Aoiyama or Onosho depending on who wins their bouts.

Not sold outs, that run was stopped day 2. Full house yes.

I see there were no Yokozuna back in 1992 at one stage on the banzuke but you confuse me. Surely the last time there were no Yokozuna competing(other than last year) was when Asashoryu went kyujo in 2006.

Yes sorry I meant back in the day as opposed to recently. Would it have been when Asashoryu was sole Yokozuna or have there been other tournaments since 2006 where no Yokozuna were competing?

When was the last time no Yokozuna remained in the tourney?

Kise kyujo. Announced outside Kyushu heya.

News just released

More info to come

14 then Taiho 8. Mazing.

They will find a sansho winner. If Yoshikaze wins he could be a consideration. Never been a basho afaik where there was not at last one awarded.

Anyone thought monii was due Shodai vs Chiyotairyu?

Gee this yaocho bent is infesting this forum. Thank goodness there are many long time respected watches of sumo out weighing these trolls.

Can someone tell me what record Kisenosato has against opponents head to head first time?

17.10

He wanted to return last basho.

Believe he picked up a Nagoya cough, that is all.

What does this mean?

They do have judges viwing replay in booth. I think you will find Japanese press tomorrow will say torinaoshi was the right call.
