    I was introduced to Sumo by Nattosumo videos. Now, I love this tradition. It will be a terrible lose if the sumo content is not avalaible in the future.

    I was thinking why Hakuho let that time pass, when he could finish takakeisho in the momento. I thought it was a symbolic pose in the last moments of the basho.

    I forgot Wakatakakage. Great basho until injury. He seemed to be explosive and agile. We are looking for him to come back as soon as possible.

    My impressions of this basho: Hakuho is a beast, but there are not, in my humble opinion, rikishis of the quality Harumafuji has. Nice Basho from Shohozan, thirty five years and going on. The best basho I have seen from Ishiura, performig a good amount of nice techniques. I like Enho, what this man does with his size is simply amazing, three consecutive Kachi Koshi. Shodai is strong. He recieved a lot of self confidence defeating Asanoyama in the way he did. He needs a bit more of hot blood. I like Endo very much, his sumo on the belt is as good as the best. he seems to be a bit irregular. I am happy for Takakeisho performing this level with the recent injury in the pec. He is unidimensional, but a bulldozer. Abi is effective, but I can not compare his sumo with Endos, for example. Sorry for Mitakeumi, he has been so erratic this basho. Asanoyama is strong, but, for the moment, I can not see him as a Yokozuna.

    I am new in sumo, but, it seems to me that in this basho he has performed a lot of techniques. He tried a henka in Kotoshokigu match, but it was a mistake, in my opinion, because in todays condition, he could beat kotoshokigu doing real sumo. I would also like to collect some opinion about Takakeisho against Abi. I think Takakeisho lose because he was convinced that Abi was going to do a henka, so he stand up very slow and very high.

    Best wrestlers to watch in my opinion: Hakuho, Endo, Okinoumi, Enho, Ishiura, Shohozan. Versatile rikishis, pleasant for the eye and the intellect. I estimate men as Takakeisho or Abi, but these are, apart from their ranks one dimensional fighters, they win a lot but they are so boring. I am an spectator, not a counter of wins, so, I appreciate Rikishis who are able to do different things on the dohyo.

    Enho is faster than Ishiura. If he manages to defeat Terutsuyhosi tomorrow, I bet on a Kachi Kosi.

    I remember one similar case in a fight between Asashoryu and Kotooshu, when the last one got also KOed.

    Yes, but one you noticed it to us, it was quite clear, I think.

    Very nice movement by Shodai. Shodai seems to be strong but sometimes, cold, apathic.

    Shohozan is developing great and versatile sumo this basho. Nice to see him.

    Can someone explain to me why Tsurugisho has come so late to the first division. He looks pretty solid right now.

    I would request some opinions about Toyonoshima. I Have just been watching sumo for a few months, but It seems to me that, first, he is very fat but looks surprisingly healthy, second, he si a great technician. Thanks.
