Yamanashi 3,904 Posted September 23, 2021 2 hours ago, Seiyashi said: Not any more. It's the two ozeki - hardly really easy pickings if they brought the right game - who'll be for him D14/15, most likely, although to be fair they've never given him as much technical trouble as say Takayasu or Kiribayama this basho. You are right, sir. I'm thinking about the chasers, who can usually be counted on to do a chokeotoshi under the pressure. He can "beat" them by surviving while they don't. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryafuji 815 Posted December 17, 2021 Given its own thread for some reason but better placed here - John Gunning's review of 2021: Terunofuji's rise was among defining moments of eventful year in sumo | The Japan Times " a dearth of reliable and trustworthy sumo information in English on social media and particularly YouTube also continues to be a problem." Do I detect a dig against a certain well-known English language sumo YouTuber here? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
