word20 Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 Kisenosato says that he is at his best and ready to run for Yokuzuna http://the-japan-news.com/news/article/0003043786 1
Benevolance Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 Hakuho has every opportunity to be pleased with a mere 13 wins and Kise announces his intention to reach yokozuna just as international sumo fans - the very CHECK AND BALANCE against yaocho, I'll remind you! - have their bootleg streaming options cut off by a Mongolian broadcaster? It's time to put on the pink bunny slippers and yell 'CONSPIRACY' at some walls!
kuroimori Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 I am not sure at all whether the UBS Livestream from Mongolia can be labeled as a bootleg and, on another note, I find that all the yaocho conspiracy jokes/tirades/bashing are getting a bit lame lately - no offense, just my personal opinion...
ScottyJoyJrBebe Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 If he could pull it off, I would be happy. 4 Yokozuna at once is an uncommon occurance. My First "Run" with sumo began in May 1991, when there was 4 Yokozuna. Yokozuna Kisenosato. I like it. :-D
NeutronGirl Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 I'd love to see him become Yokozuna. Big time. I'll be cheering for him.

WAKATAKE Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Yusho first, talk latter. Agreed. Let's not have Futahaguro happen again. And I mean his yusho count.
Andonishiki Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) if Leicester wins the premiership... if Germany can beat Italy in a major tournament... if Mongolians introduce pay-TV for Sumo-fans... then Kise can win a yuusho & zunahood.... maybe there's a connection: the Mongolians are afraid of public riots, if the 'normal' folks must watch Kise gets handed his wins over on a silver plate... -> therefore they introduce pay-tv as 'richer' viewers are less likely to riot ;0) (most abstruse of all conspiracy theories EFFA) Edited July 3, 2016 by Andonishiki
Asojima Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 if Mongolians introduce pay-TV for Sumo-fans... then Kise can win a yuusho & zunahood.... Kise is in trouble. We now know that UBS is not going to pay-TV. 1
Andonishiki Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 how do u call an end of Kisenosato Ozekihood ? Kisexit or KisenOsekxit 1
Benevolance Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 If he does it with enough style, Kise de Gucci. 1
kuroimori Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 My gut feeling tells me it will rather be some Ody(k)isey 2
Benihana Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 (edited) How about oxit? It's more fitting his build :-D Edited July 4, 2016 by Ogami Ittō 1
WAKATAKE Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Ozekxit. Leave out the "k" and you've got it. "Ozexit" 1
Atenzan Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) Ozekxit.Leave out the "k" and you've got it. "Ozexit"The k was silent, that was the idea. Like Eddie Merckx. Edited July 5, 2016 by McBugger
Akinomaki Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) NHK news today on Kisenosato's outlook for the basho Demon like every basho on Ohayo Nippon: You won't make it with straight-on sumo (- be evil like Hakuho) news watch9, Kisenosato 30: "My mawashi is my lover" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgmW6WCpe_o Edited July 8, 2016 by Akinomaki 4
mikawa Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 At least if he gets a Yusho, then it would be remotely justifiable, but that's a big IF though......
Dapeng Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 Yusho first, talk latter. Agreed. Let's not have Futahaguro happen again. And I mean his yusho count. Unless it is a quality yusho. A 12-win yusho is actually worse than a 13-win non-yusho.
Washuyama Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 If Kise can beat the opponent "between his ears," he'll make it. If not... :'-(
egparis18 Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 news watch9, Kisenosato 30: "My mawashi is my lover" Oh dear! No wonder he keeps choking. 3
Dwale Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) In a sumo metagame without Hakuho, I think Kisenosato would have been a yokozuna already. He's a heck of a sekitori! But, Hakuho just has that extra something... Even so, we've seen Kisenosato beat Hakuho a respectable number of times. He can do it. The only question is, "Will he?" I look forward to finding out.

Jakusotsu Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 In a sumo metagame without Hakuho, I think Kisenosato would have been a yokozuna already.Everytime I read something like this, I want to calculate how many Yusho Kisenosato would have won if you eliminate all of Hakuho's bouts, but everytime I'm much too lazy...
Gurowake Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 In a sumo metagame without Hakuho, I think Kisenosato would have been a yokozuna already.Everytime I read something like this, I want to calculate how many Yusho Kisenosato would have won if you eliminate all of Hakuho's bouts, but everytime I'm much too lazy... Someone may have already done that work. http://www.sumoforum.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=34300 You can presumably add 2 to the total from that thread for the last two basho. 1
