Great day of sumo !! Tokushoryu beats Chioshuma adding a face slap. How quickly Terutsuyoshi got off the block winning an exciting long match with Kotoecho. Enho !!! Wow !!! Asanoyama looking very Ozeki.

Takakeisho !!!! for the cup and beats the Hak on sensurarku! !! Hokotofuji and Endo 9-6 and back in the joi in March. Terinofuji upper body looks scary, the Terror is coming back, Juryo yusho. Looking forward to this Basho.

Congrats to Diasho .. I like this boy, hard hitting forward moving sumo, the Ozeki killer. Abi Is right where he belongs IMO , results will take him places, not sure it's up, as we reshuffle the deck. I hope Asonmayama gets to Ozeki he's got all the guns blazing and fun to watch. Lots of great sumo ahead for this decade. Happy New Year everybody, let's get it going !

Last place ! buggers ! Not even eligible for the Hattorizakura award since I won a few. I'll be back in training and will do my best in January .. Bow

Quality wins for Enho over the Ozeki killer Diasho, Kotoyuki over Endo (what !) and Kagayaki over shohozan. If Kagayaki really added some grip work and get those hips lower he might be back near the top. Enho did better than most of us thought. Abi is proving me wrong, he's tough to defend against but always on the balls of his feet. Nobody seems to get under his offense. Congrats to the GOAT what can you say.

I wish they could bring up Terinofuji now to have a crack at the Hak. It's not over till it's over. Ishura has been doing some great sumo. And congrats to Kagayaki for a long overdue KK.

Takakeishou is looking stronger as we go along ...a good thing but somebody has to beat the Hak. They already sent In Tamawashi to break his arm and didn't work. ...that's a joke son...:| Nice to see Kagayaki wining with a grip and lowing his hips.. Nice

Thank you very much for this. .. the basho is double exciting for many of us !!!

Couple positive notes. Kagayaki winning with a double grip, he looked good doing it. Kotoshugiku putting couple wins together. Was funny watching the ref sinking down to see when Enho's ass touched. Go Hokotofuji !!

Asanoyama has a more complete game than many of the "all offense" guys I like Takakeishou, Hokotofuji, Abi, even OG Tamawashi. he might be able to go all the way.

Hakahou will just waltz away with the cup if nobody steps up... C'mon guys !

Nice bunch of kensho for Kotoshugiku. .. he hasn't collected any of it yet :(

Hokotofuji out muscling Takarafuji and Mita, I like what I'm seeing. Fingers crossed

I think Takakeishou looked tentative on day 1, and confirmed today, I hope he gets the 8. How about my boy Hokotofuji, great match and win. Sucks seeing the chair already. Crazy day.

I'll say it ... Abi got a tough opponent in "no neck" Takarafuji . All he got was upper chest no chin, no neck. Takarafuji has one of the best examples of a sumo body lots of muscle and little fat. Hard as a rock I'm sure. Good win for Takarafuji.

I don't know why or how Abi's opponents don't just do an Enho and dive under the throat attack..and just push forward.

As much as I love Takakeishou , I don't like his injury for his style. The Yokozuna may have problems. Hokotofuji with hs "bring on the violence " style will be my pick Go Hokotofuji !!!

OMG please do... Thank you very much !!!

I'm just gonna say the first injury in his first ozeki appearance against Mita bummed me out... Now this again against Mita...ugh . I hope he will recover.. Nuff said ...

Apologies if off topic . Does anybody know of a source for 2020 sumo calandar that ships to the US ? I'd love to give one as a gift to my sister and one for myself. Thank you.

I get the feeling it's not the last Yusho showdown for these two. Nice job by Ishura beating Tamawashi for KK. Lobster boy Kotoyuki has a nice basho and looked powerful. And I think Hokotofuji finished up winning 8 straight . Congrats to Mita !

I'm so glad Hokotofuji won maybe fighting spirt prize in order if he wins tomorrow. Mitakiumi Takakeishou play off would be sweet.

Great job by Takakeishou ...now on to the Yusho !!
