Dear Friends,
I have been following sumo for a few years and now pursuing some research on the sport. I had a few questions that I hope I can get some answers to.
1) Is there any meaningful classification of kimarite in terms of the risks involved. For instance is it right to say that a yorikiri is riskier than a mawashi technique?
2) Does the wrestlers rank have any bearing on the type of technique being used?
Would be very grateful for any responses.
Regards,
