Superb sumo bouts

[Kaikitsune Makoto]

Look what I found...

Some uber cool bouts including couple of knock-outs. Onokuni gets knocked out by infamous Itai while small Kyokudozan knocks out Takatoriki partially. Beautiful ipponzeoi is also shown and Tomonohana's masteful izori. Be well and witness.

I think the Ama-Wakanoho ranks right up there. I still get excited explaining it to friends.

Kirinji (current Kitajin Oyakata) and Fujizakura (Nakamura Oyakata.) I used to love their bouts. They were two of my favorites in the '70s.

Wow Onokuni was knocked out good and solid. Didn't think a huge rikishi like him could get slapped around like that
