Tokihayate has has an incredible basho so far. With 9 wins from 7 different techniques I’m hoping he gets the technique prize.

Best day of sumo of the basho. some incredible matches, moves and turnarounds. The top guys continue to impress. Aonishiki needs one win for Ozeki. Kotozakura needs 1 win for kachikoshi. They’ll likely both face two Yokozuna then each other over the last 3 days.

Onosato’s first loss breathes life into this basho. He’s now tied with Aonishiki and only one match ahead of Hoshoryu so the three top performers of the year are with their own destiny in their hands. Kotozakura hanging in there for Kachikoshi despite struggling for fitness and form.

Another giant coming up is Kazuma. 185cm, 194kg. He’s 4-0 at Ms15 so 3 more wins will put him in Juryo in Jan. He burst onto the scene as a makushita tsukedashi and then got immediately injured but since coming back took Jonokuchi and Sandanme yushos and has only dropped a single match in 3 bashos.

Tamawashi won’t get a kinboshi this basho but he came within a hair of getting 2 of them.

Fujiryoga is currently 8-0 in Juryo and 36-6 in his career. Nakabi on his 5th basho and he still doesn’t have a Makekoshi worth of losses.

I think I’m ready to see Yoshinofuji tested against the top of the Banzuke now. Seems to have what it takes to be a Sanyaku wrestler. How much higher than that remains to be seen. He’s 24 but only in his 10th career basho.

Fujinokawa continues to impress. Was way too quick for Tobizaru today which is saying something. Tobizaru is a 3 time Komusubi who is used to giving up 15-50 kg every bout he has.

if Onosato doesnt win this yusho it would be a major upset from here. Looks a true Yokozuna for the ages right now.

I guess if you’re gonna henka you might as well do it flawlessly. Total dog act but you gotta sort of respect the perfection of it.

Easily the worst day of sumo so far. A lot of disappointing performances in both losses and wins in some instances. Aonishiki really needs to keep his head up at this level. Kotozakura looks really hurt and Hoshoryu looked cooked until Hira just lost his feet. Hope they bring it tomorrow.
