Sorry, it is not very easy to look is it?

You can check this against your favorite rikishi's kimarites at Sumo Kyokai site.

Apperantly there is a trend in an increase of Hikiwazas; Hikiotoshi, Hatakikomi, &Tsukiotoshi as well as Oshidashi. Yoritaoshi & Yorikiri are in decrease. So it seems some yotsu-zumo has been replaced by oshi-zumo at least till 2000.

FYI

(kind of offtopic to this thread)

This thread reminds me of something:

As far as I know, Kaio is considered the "Kotenage King". But in the last six bashos, he used this kimarite only once. Did he used this kimarite more in the past (a *lot* more?), or he is considered the kotenage king due to the "quality" of his kotenages? (or maybe power would be the best way to define it)

[aderechelsea]

(or maybe power would be the best way to define it)

yeap......

this is it.

(Enjoying a beer...)

[Yoavoshimaru]

I'm always very interested in kimarite statistics, and I've found this site superior. Ipponzeoi!

[Otokonoyama]

Kaio is the KING of kotenage. Problem is, he's damaged a lot of elbows in the process. Basically, if Kaio gets kotenage on you, if you offer even a little resistance, you're gonna have a busted arm or seriously hurt elbow.

These guys don't want to injure each other, don't wanna cause another guy to go kyujo. So, Kaio uses the technique until he injures someone...then he feels bad, and stops for while.

Also, you have to have perfect position to use kotenage. Kaio has tried and failed a number of times, leaving him vulnerable to counter-attack. The other rikishi know this is Kaio's killer technique...they're watching for it.

The guy's a true genius, isn't he?

...flexible, quick on action, balanced strong "ashikoshi"(translated as strong leg work?), versatile, unbelievable fighting spirit, superior motor nerve...

I don't know much about "legendary" Takanohana II... Has there been anyone who made you folks feel talented as he is?

That Kaio-Maru Ipponzeoi is only a half-Ipponzoei. Kaio didn't really "heave his opponent over his shoulder/hip."

Imaging the stress (and the strength needed) of heaving 200kg on your shoulder or hip. (Blinking...)

[Kashunowaka]

Thanks for the link...now I can't wait for an ipponzei kimarite.

As you may or may not know, the kimarite site is maintained by our esteemed Rijicho a.k.a. Kaikitsune. He usually posts a run-through twice a year of kimarite stats in makuuchi. Previous postings:

[Yoavoshimaru]

Yeah, I also think the Kaio-Maru ipponzeoi decision was wrong. That wasn't the kimarite, and should have been changed.

Looks like Tsuridashi = Atomic Wedgie, huh?

Asashoryu is getting close to joining the all-time top 5 users of Tsuridashi.

[Golynohana]

And what about this one?

Nagoya'03 Day 4 Takekaze ipponzeoi Chiyotenzan

I think it also wasn't "clear" ipponzeoi...

*BZZZZZT* Wrong, but thank you for playing anyway!

Perhaps you are thinking of tsuriotoshi?

he he he ..... now you are being mean...... (Clapping wildly...)

back to the Kaio-Maru case......

this was definately an "i wish i would see another ipponzeoi in this lifetime" kimarite decision..... (Neener, neener...)

(i am sure Kaio didn't intend to throw Maru over his shoulder..... (Punk rocker...) )

Kashunowaka,

Thanks! No, I didn't know about Rijicho a.k.a. Kaikitsune posting all those kimarite sites. I appreciate your re-posting the links.

Golynohana,

Domo Arrigato! I was going to ask if there was a photo in someone's archives showing the ipponzei kimarite but you did me a better favor...you posted a movie link! Shucks, you guys are really super-nice specially to newbies like me, eh? I owe you and Jonas a glass of ice cold San Miguel beer.

(Cheers...)

You are welcome! For completeness sake, here are two more which were posted to the Sumo Mailing List:

Interesting to see Kyokushuzan's okuritsuriotoshi in 2001 mentioned as "unnecessary". The same thought crossed my mind today when Hakuho won with this rare technique.

Looks a bit disregarding to your opponent but a funny kimarite whatsoever......

i haven't seen it lately and i always like to watch rare kimarite....

[Naganoyama]

Hakuho's okuritsuriotoshi had such a stamp of Asashoryu about it. He could easily just have okuridashi'd him, but had to teach him a lesson too.

[Kintamayama]

Someone on the kimarite deciding ultra-commitee decided to go ballistic today. A kubihineri AND a kotehineri in a span of three matches. Both matches didn't seem unusual to me.. AFAIK, this is the first ever kotehineri recorded in Makuuchi, and the second kubihineri.

I will await the Doctor's professional opinion, of course.

Yep - first ever - as far as NHK report.

[Zuikakuyama]

That was rather poor sportsmanship, I would say, plus he slammed him down, instead of lifting him out.

if this is on yesterday - was explained as being because Mongolian sumo has no dohyo and opponents must be 'put down' to win, so could have lost his head.
