Sekitori Sweepstake - November 2025

[Jejima]

S1W Gusoyama needs a zensho yusho (to get promoted to Ozeki) from J2w Asahakuryu.

Asahakuryu is on a hat-trick (after Makushita, then Juryo yushos) for yushos, so it is an actual possibility.

[Jejima]

M14W Marakizumi has drawn M17e Chiyoshoma.

Chiyoshoma has taken the elevator back to Makunouchi, after one basho in Juryo.

 

[Jejima]

M12W Getayukata gets M14w Tokihayate.

Tokihayate is the third lightest rikishi in the top division.

 

[Jejima]

M3E Ganzohnesushi is going with K1e Takanosho.

Takanosho posted a 4-11 record the last time he was ranked as a Komusubi.

 

[Jejima]

M17E Daiouika has been gifted M4w Oshoma.

Oshoma posted a 4-11 record the last time he was ranked at M4W - which was last November in Fukuoka....

 

[Jejima]

M13E TheGunbaiHolder will hold onto M6e Atamifuji.

Atamifuji has only had one MK at a Kyushu basho.

[Jejima]

M8W Chanko Thief will be hoping for great things from M12w Tomokaze.

Tomokaze has had back-to-back 9-6 records.

 

[Jejima]

M5W Joaoiyama needs joy from M17w Asakoryu.

Asakoryu is the second lightest rikishi in Makunouchi.

 

[Jejima]

M2E Karasukurai will be lumbered with J7e Takerufuji.

Will Takerufuji turn up to fight this basho? Or will Karasukurai require a redraw?

 

[Jejima]

M7W Rokudenashi is going to rock it with J10e Hakuyozan.

Hakuyozan has had three MKs in-a-row. Time to turn it around!

[Jejima]

M5E Iwadanuki enters the dohyo with M8e Ichiyamamoto.

Ichiyamamoto won his first Sekitori yusho (Juryo) and first Sekitori Jun-Yusho (Makunouchi) in November tournaments.

[Jejima]

M4W Wamahada receives S1e Aonishiki.

Aonishiki has never had an MK record. He has a 79% win record. He is on an Ozeki run. All looking good for Wamahada!

 

[Jejima]

M16E Lordshamrockyama will lord it up with M9w Tobizaru.

Tobizaru has only had one Makunouchi KK in Kyushu in his career.

 

[Jejima]

M16W Kaba spins the wheel for himself, and gets K1w Takayasu.

This will be Takayasu's fourth basho in-a-row at Komusubi - despite getting MKs in two of them!

 

[Jejima]

K1W Flohru has J8w Kazekeno.

According to Sumo Reference, Kazekeno's first basho was ranked as 'Banzuke-gai. Can anyone explain this anomaly? 

 

[Jejima]

M15W Jakusotsu has harpooned J6e Kotokuzan.

Kotokuzan is half-Filipino (I think) - like my children!

[Jejima]

M4E Tibozuka has got J14w Wakanosho.

Wakanosho has never had a KK in Juryo.

[Jejima]

M15E Meletyoshi receives M13e Gonoyama.

Hopefully Gonoyama will not repeat his 1-14 record from September!

 

[Jejima]

M8E Spytoneryu will be spotting Y1w Hoshoryu.

Hoshoryu looks like a good draw..... but he has pulled out of both the other non-Tokyo bashos in 2025.

 

[Jejima]

K1E Fashiriteta has J1w Fujiseiun.

Fujiseiun is knocking at the door for a first time ever promotion to the top division.

[Jejima]

That completes the draw, although we hope that @Ack! will make a late entry.

Hakumadashi will follow the fortunes of jk22E Higohikari   .

Higohikari has won exactly one bout in the past 17 bashos. Eek. I fear the worst for Hakumadashi.....  I think set a goal of surviving the whole basho without withdrawing?

Yeah, Green Eyed Dragon got Higohikari last basho for a record of 0-2-5 ..... Good luck to @Hakumadashi !

M6E Athenayama will hope for good things from J7w Shirokuma.

'Shirokuma' means 'Polar Bear'.

 

I'd be very happy with just an 8-7 this basho.

EDIT : Above post now corrected. Makuuchi was completely wrong and no table was displaying the rikishi drawn for each player. Sorry for that and thanks for your understanding.

Thanks to @Jejima for pointing it out !
