>>142924061He decided to not pursue Daieisho as he was spinning. Whether that's a tactic or his knees just not keeping up, that's up for debate.
>>142924056>Source: my fat American ass
>>142924089he probably doesn't want to move around too fast because that puts him in the position of potentially having his momentum used against himand he doesn't have the knees to prevent that from being done
Worth staying up to see Teruno keep his 0 and monkey get btfo once again. 4 hours of sleep incoming.
>>142924097are you a vegan? lol
previous thread >>142869003
I will never root for Daiesho until he removes his magic elbow sleeves>>142924089I think it's a deliberate decision considering his most glaring weakness is being outmaneuvered by rikishi who break free from his grip in close quarters.
>>142924118>are you a vegan?No, I'm not. I love beef. But that doesn't change the fact that you are a lard-ass. Or am I wrong, fatso?
>>142924139ur a virgin and a veganthe only meat you eat is cock
>>142924139of course you're wrong, you vegans are all low IQ. how much do you bench? probably 0, you vegans are all sissies
man just decided someone is a vegan
takerufuji era
so, how much are they paying these shitters to job against Terunofuji? that last 2 bouts were sus as fuck
>>1429245543 free clinic visits
>>142924554>jobbingThey're shitters. They do it for free.
>>142924554Terunofuji won because he shut Daieishos thrust completely
>>142924554sus? those were actually decent attempts by them, which is expected as he will be getting sanyaku now.
Canadanon was right btw. Their training is retarded and they are too fat.
Nabatame got robbed. Fuck the JSA.
I think terunofujis polycythemia is getting worse, is he upping the steroids?
>>142926091>polycythemia im going to have to ask to see his medical records
If you don't like sumo, then why are you in this thread? Take your opinions elsewhere.
>Oho with two yorikiri wins in a row.Are we witnessing the dawn of a new era?
>>142924089Ura lost his match agsinst abi today by following up too aggressively. It happens all the time. Terunofuji doesn't need to immediately rush him, just close to get better position is enoughKotozakura and onosato should pick up this up since they have the size to just bully people out of the ring with good positioning with their size and strength.
>>142924554Daieisho is a shitter just like the rest>come to fast off tachiai>gets side stepped>runs out the ringHow many times have we seen this with Daieishos? He lost this way twice in a span of 30 minutes to kirishima in his jy playoff defeat.
>>142926920Kotozakura and Onosato both need show a more dominant, forceful, offensive sumo if they want a shot at Yokozuna
>>142926822Why don't you want sumo to improve? Imagine the entire top division full of Chiyonofujis. No more Kakakeishos.
>>142926949i'd say that's the downside of being pusher/thruster.>>142926091doctors stopped pumping steroids into his knees as it had no further benefit and it was actual getting worse, that's why he had the big surgery and was out for so long. If there is anything wrong with him, it would be his back.
>>142926952That doesn't mean they need to over extended themselves chasing someone.
>>142926961If I wanted to watch Mr. Universe I would go do that. I don't care what you think is sexy, it's absolutely and utterly and totally and completely irrelevant. Sumo has nothing to do with making your tiny little dick tingle.
>>142925644Karelin would be good at the belt but get pushed out of the ring way before that. 125kg isn't enough against guys who are just as tall as you.
>>142926987>i'd say that's the downside of being pusher/thrusterid argue the reason takakeisho made ozeki and daieisho hasn't was managing that
>>142927035Fatso.
>>142927092Fag
>>142926822Some people feel smart just from criticizing a thing, regardless of how bad or ignorant the criticisms are.
>>142927035damn you're hella closeted
>>142927106I'm not gay. But you're fat.
>watching sumo >posting on /sp/>under 150kgsasusages
I'm worried Onosato might commit seppuku if he doesn't get some wins
midorifuji forever my goat
did they really fucking matched Keiga against 7 years older and 14 ranks higher dude, lol
>>142927550Kisenosato was ripping him on live commentary TWICE today, that's worse than sudoku
>>142927933What did he say?
>>142927092how much do you bench?
>>142927777matchups in jonidan are done by record, guys with the same record go against each other.
>>142928308A repeated "He was learned a lot" for his bout today. Kisenosato even gave his about a repeat analysis at the end, criticized his tachi-ai
>>142928811Well I hope Onosato really has learned a lot. I always thought his sumo was missing something but I would be surprised if he solved it in this basho.
>>142927777Lower divisions have a fuckton of guys and they only fight 7 days, guys go up and down a lot quicker than sekitori.
Next basho
>>142927777I was impressed by how well Keiga did, actually. If he can manage his knees properly he's the best prospect Futagoyama has.
Found on youtube. Is this saying onosato is a bully?
>>142927038Also, he was on an insane amount of steroids.Gotta take into account that olympic weightlifters, wrestlers, etc from that period all were blasting gear like their lives depended on it. It's why the records from that period can't be broken. Stronmen like Martin Licis mention in the last thread are also blasting gear because there is no testing in strongman. Bodybuilding too is untested. Sumo does not test, but steroids are very illegal in Japan so I don't think they use or most don't at least.
>>142930654>sumo Mr./Ms?
>>142930758osumo-san.
>Kirishitma vs teru
>>142930983This cracks me up everytime. It looks like those special effects they used in 70s sci-fi movies.
>>142930724>steroids are very illegal in Japan soUhhh no, it's the complete opposite. Steroid use is legal and virtually encouraged in Japan. Pride MMA, which at its peak was bigger than the UFC at the time, explicitly mentioned in their contracts that they wouldn't test for steroids.
>>142930983>>142930996
>>142931028Steroids are not legal in Japan. I stand by what I said. I don't think there is much steroid usage because it's illegal and there isn't a culture of steroid usage in sumo.
>>142924118>dailymailyou have down syndrome
>>142931621>Steroids are not legal in Japan.Prove it. There are no laws on the books in Japan that label steroids as a controlled substance. It's only """illegal""" in international competitions where they test for it, which domestic Japanese competitions don't care about.>there isn't a culture of steroid usage in sumololThe only thing limiting steroid usage in sumo is the cost.
Teru ain’t in steroids he’s on powerful painkillers shot in his knees Terunopercy
>>142931621>Steroids are not legal in JapanI researched this before but lost my notes, so I had to do it again. When in Japan, steroids can only be legally obtained with a prescription, but there are no penalties for possession. As such, steroid users in Japan simply order their steroids from overseas, which does not run afoul of current legislation.
>>142930654Basically, yeah. Paraphrased translation:>It's great that Onosato lost. Everyone hates him, he bullies younger wrestlers and is generally a dick.
>>142932012Lmfao I kind of hope it's truesumo could use a good villain
>>142931770>>142931922I don't deny that some use steroids like Chiyonofuji and, to use a more reason example, Tochinoshin. However, it's clear that the primary philosophy about strength training in sumo is bulking + dynamic stretching + high volume resistance training which is a perfectly sound philosophy according to modern exercise science. Nutrition is overrated. Look at strong men. They eat like sumo wrestlers. Normies obsess over macros and micros and protein intake because they want to look like swimsuit models. It's basically a form of anorexia. However, to build strength all you have to do is eat alot and that can be 95% carbs. You can bulk on a vegan diet, keto diet, junk food diet.
>>142932028Physiognomy does not lie. Onosato has a villainous face.
Kuwae about to go for his KK
Kuwae wins easily with a right hand inside yorikiri
Wakamiyabi throwing down. Good response.
guys... It could atually be TRULY joever. We could have a MADAM president trophy.
>>142926987>doctors stopped pumping steroids into his knees I'm not talking about steroids prescriped in a hospital bucko
>>142926872Shishi same. Doing great on the belt.
No Takerufuji?
>>142935064he did his minimum to stay in juryou
>>142935082Well if he's still injured that can't be good.
>>142924070>file deletedI hate jannies.
>>142932064Just look the serial killer shot they gave him in the Abema intro.
Nice to see Chiyomaru staving off MK once again
Shishi lostTakerufuji is going to go 8-0 and take Juryo in a playoff
>>142935226Takerufuji is sitting out again in yet another shamfur dispray of cowardice &/or laziness. So far he is 3-0-22 post injury, there is nothing wrong with his ankle
sumo-fud-bros,what da hell was this?
>>142935265Nabatame is trying to be like Daieisho
KAWAII!!
Shirokuma now tied with Shishi for lead in Juryo!
>>142935298kawaii even more
>>142935265Nabatame is really starting to show the frustration he imposed on himself by his choice to have a lackadaisical training style. Getting knocked back down to kitchen duty tier might teach him to spend less time laying around like a slob and more time training and practicing.
>>142935312Youtube views are a hell of a drug
>>142935294Daieisho is tall, heavier and much more muscular than Nabatame. Nabatame should bust his ass in the gym and on the practice dohyo if he wants to be like Daieisho, thats what Daieisho did to get where he is at.
The eight hour arm day experiment has run its course.
Wait what? Takeru is gone again???
>>142935360yeah, he fagged out.
That unhappy murmur that ran through the crowd after the kyujo announcement shows that everyone in Japan now knows Takerufuji is a pussy
>>142935082but he looked fucking good, thick, tight, swole. he should be pushing
> shows up> wins> refuses to elaborate> leaves
> /sumo/ seethes
>>142935064He doesn't like sumo.>>142935082This.
>>142935377well he either isn't that dumb to aggravate it more and heal it completely or it's much worse of an injury as we thought.
>>142935390I do lots of things I don't like
Big Win really dropping the ball here. Maybe he should change his name to Oonomake.
>>142935409He misspoke, it was "oo, no katsu".

>>142935360He’s still recovering. Just needed a win or two to stay in juryo on the next banzuke.
>miss a huge guy by a mile

Zak has never beaten Onosato
>>142936073it's about god damn time
>Onos-ACK-o
oh no satosome kids are about to get bullied tonight
>>142936073called it
>>142936073
>>142936073he just did
Teru's never going to make it to Ozeki if he keeps losing to Kirishima like that.
lose you fat mongolian lose
I want Teru to zensho.
>>142936073They have Koto leads their h2h 3-1
>>142936116wrong one..
That's my Teru...
puff
>I'll morozashi Terunofuji, thats a good trick!
Percnofuji
Fuck these new knees are good aye
>I'll just give teru his preferred armlock grip ACK
Can’t stop the zak teru is cooked the zak just needs ONE person to beat teru so when he beats teru we can have a playofff
>>142936173>preferredThe clamps are Teru's plan B at best. Left hand belt grip is Teru's preferred grip and he's been demolishing everyone without getting it once.
East wins day 10 by a whopping 14-6 margin
>>142936179cope-tozakura
>>142936197Almost had him there. I think this match shows Kotozakura's yokozuna potential.
Moment of truth of Onosato tomorrow.
>>142936403>Almost had him thereAre you blind? The only time Kotozakura had the advantage was at the tachiai. Teru was in control every step after.
>>142936413it's over8-7 nowinjury next bashopotential never fulfilled many such cases
>>142936605Chill man, it's only his 8th basho ever.Zak's 8th basho was in sandanme, after dropping from low makushita. Neph was just approaching juryo.
>>142936703you're a champ or a fraudthere is no inbetweens
>>142936849You can definitely be a fraudulent champ.
>>142936403
>>142936179teru dropping 1 to have the musubi no ichiban decide would be kinobut zak still has some tough matchups left
>>142935603>Sucks that I can't call him Big Win anymore. you can call him Big Cutlet though
>>142924070Maybe Terunofuji is just healthy now and will keep going for a couple more years until Isegahama retires. He hasn't looked this good in a long while.
>>142937204
>>142935472Nah, she is much older.
>>142932037>Look at strong men. They eat like sumo wrestlers. They don't. They all eat basic ground beef, rice, eggs, potatoes during contest prep. The eating challenge shit is only for youtube content
So say Terunofuji losing to Kotozakura is the only lose between the two going foward (14-1 y, 13-2 jy), whats the chances they give Kotozakura the rope if he wins the next badho?>>142937204He saw a new iced out richard mille watch he wanted is why hes doing this
>>142939098The only reason why Kisenosato's 12-3J counted is because he beat three yokozuna in that basho, and also defeated the only healthy yokozuna in the next one. They couldn't say he wasn't doing yokozuna sumo when he was consistently beating yokozuna. Kotozakura would need to also beat Teru next basho for it to be considered, not win an easy yusho with Teru out injured.
>>142939241>Kotozakura would need to also beat Teru next bashoGonna be tough, Teru's a very rare spawn.
Whats the record on staying same maegashira spot for several banzukes in row?
>>142935308I was wrong. She is cute.
it's over...
Will he try it again this basho?
>>142941249love a good neko damashi
>>142941620>goodThat was a horrible, humorous attempt.
>>142942087that's why it was so goodI loved his full body commitment to it
>>142939419Dunno but Roga will hold it soon
>>142941249Big of Teru not to laugh here
Nabatame vs Aoiyama todaypredicitions?
>>142942428*predictions
>>142936197Kotozakura won this he forced teru to step out in a last ditch throw koto’s thigh hit after teru stepped out.
>>142942428Aoiyama invents a new kimarite and knocks Nabatame out with his big naturals.
>>1429390980. Even if he JY-Y, they wouldn't promote him because he's young. If he's the real deal, he'd be able to do it again and has plenty of time to do so.
>>142942428Look for Nabatame to be wearing a dark belt in the practice ring two weeks from now and for him to be cleaning Roga's shit stains out of the beya toilets
>>142943671>they wouldn't promote him because he's youngThat hasn't been a thing since 1950. If they say the YDC will hold a discussion if he wins the next basho, then he's on a run. If they don't, he's not.
>>142935637>>142935638>>142935639>>142935658>>142935660Wtk vs bussindorifuji just proved a weight limit would make sumo more dynamic and entertaining. No other fight gets this type of pop when it’s over and it was because it wasn’t two Lard asses pushing each other until one gasses and gives up.
>>142943671Even if he somehow managed to get promoted for November, he would still be older than Akebono, Takanohana, Asashoryu, and Hakuho all were.
>>142944147The difference is all those guys won 2 yusho in a row. Koto hasn't even won once yet. All the nuthuggers need to slow their roll.
>>142944205I'm not saying it would be likely, I'm saying age would not be a barrier.
>>142944205>nuthuggers that Spanish bro and I are kotos only fans here
>>142939098>whats the chances they give Kotozakura the rope if he wins the next badho?Shit ain't happening. Ozeki Takanohana had a 14-1 yusho and 13-2 yusho-doten where he beat yokozuna Akebono but lost the playoff against him. No promotion.Ozeki Hakuho had a 14-1 yusho and 13-2 jun-yusho where he beat all 4 of the other ozeki and yokozuna Asashoryu. No promotion.
>>142944412Y->J is not the same thing as J->Y
>>142944447Both Takanohana and Hakuho had a JY immediately before the two runs I mentioned in my post.
>>142944375Zak has been nothing but a mediocrity as a yokozuna candidate, he is fine as an ozeki. If he was legitimately worthy of yokozuna then he would be putting up 14-1s & 15-0s at least occasionally. He needs to up his game if he wants to earn the promotion, he is no better now than he was when he was sekiwake back in January. He either needs to start training harder or become a more sophisticated fighter if he wants to be a yokozuna. Nobody wants a yokozuna who puts up 10-5s & 11-4s. Grandaddy Zak was promoted on consecutive 14-1s, Zak Jr has never demonstrated that capability. If he were to be promoted at his current ability level he would be an embarrassment, it is in his own best interests to remain an ozeki until he can legitimately earn the yokozuna title
>>142944447Now this is the most intense cope I've heard in a while
>>142944474>Both Takanohana and Hakuho had a JY immediately before the two runs I mentioned Hak's was not at ozeki, and Takanohana's J was somehow an 11-4 J behind a 14-1 Y.Regardless, not all D/Js are created equal, and also the YDC/NSK doesn't have consistent leadership through the decades. In the 80s, YDC members said a foreigner could never be yokozuna - in '93, they voted one in. In the wake of Futahaguro, the YDC/NSK said they didn't care about the 'equivalent/runner-up' provision and that they would only accept back-to-back yusho for yokozuna promotion; 20 years on, Kakuryu and Kisenosato and Terunofuji broke through that. My point is that the most recent examples we have seen indicate that a sufficiently high-level J/D is the same as a Y (only valid for 1Y not both) to the current people in power.
>>142944784I don't even like Kotonowaka but, if you had followed the conversation, you would have seen that this is about a fantasy scenario in which he goes 13-2 J this basho and Y in the next. Let's be conservative and say it's a 12-3 Y.Do you in all seriousness see him not being promoted after a sequence of 11-4 J 13-2 J 12-3 Y?
>>142944902NTA but he's not getting promoted after a 12-3 yusho. If he goes 15-0 then that's a maybe, and even then an outside chance.
Kek, gyoji bump in jonokuchi
>>142944902if they do that then he will follow it up with 10-5s & 11-4s and eventually be forced into early retirement as an embarrassment to sumo. on the other hand if he never makes yokozuna and remains as an ozeki for a long time continuing to crank out 10-5s & 11-4s and never or rarely goes kadoban then he will be kaio tier and respected forever. just think about the difference between kaio's & kisenosato's legacies. kisenosato's years of stellar ozeki performance is all but forgotten and he is mostly thought of as a mediocre at best yokozuna who never lived up to the rank, he is currently scrambling to restore his reputation by producing an ace stable, which isn't really all that bad. the nishonoseki vs miyagino contest will continue for another quarter century or so and provide ample entertainment, but things would have worked out the same way if kisenosato had ended up retiring as one of the greatest ozekis of all time without having his reputation besmirched by his sad history as a yokozuna
>>142945240>he will follow it up with 10-5s & 11-4s and eventually be forced into early retirement as an embarrassment to sumoYeah, Harumafuji was a real disgusting embarrassment who ruined the sanctity of the yokozuna rank through his poor performance.
>enho bumping off kakuho and hakuryu in succession does he get a binkoshi for that
>>142945185Poor Kaio. And that's during the Uncle's hostile takeover.
koga with the desperation henka win, but he did a good job of selling it during the prebout rituals
Why does he do it...
>>142935674He looked great in the matches he fought.
Hakuryu has some Abi tier shiko, nice so see
>>142945384For the love of the game, Daisuke.
>>142944375I've not been a fan in the past, bue just keeps getting better. He'll wear the rope one day, and I'm fine with it. He'll make a fine yokozuna someday. It's inevitable.
>>142945438What an utter unit. Sadly, Hanakaze's career is contaminated with Sandanme. And he was never a Jonokuch mainstay shitter.
>>142945462Shit like that is going to happen so long as the JSA disproportionately punishes people who aren't losing on the dohyo. The idea that a guy at almost the top of juryo should be treated like he showed up and lost every match and lose his salary when he's recovering from an injury will always be horseshit.
>>142945462Fucking boomer retards.We don't want another Endo. Let the guy heal proprely.
>>142945522he is already just fine, he is 3-0 post injury so far. have you ever had a sprained ankle? it isn't a significant injury, it gets better on its own with no treatment in less than a week
>>142945849
>>142944604>it is in his own best interests to remain an ozeki this is by far the dumbest thing itt. if they decide to promote, the benefits outweigh whatever made up reason you think there is to not take the promotion>14/15winslot rarer than you are making it sound. first kotozakura only had 3 at ozeki/yokozuna. new kotonowaka is also ahead in wins for a year period than the year leading to old kotozakura's yokozuna promotion. im not a kotosexual, but this feels like jsa fanfiction. its better to say that his yun this tournament wouldn't be strong enough. (lose to former ozeki mitakeumi and komusubi daieisho)
Talking about which ozeki look like they're yokozuna material is hopeless. Not every ozeki is a perennial "almost there" like Kisenosato was, it's far more likely for an ozeki to just fart around for a bit before he makes his solid two-basho run to make it.Without looking it up, guess which hack never-gonna-make-it ozeki pic related is.
>>142945240This assumes he would have retired somewhere around when he made yokozuna. What would have most likely have happened is he fought another 2 or 3 years with a slow decline out of sekitori and be completely forgotten. no matter how bad a yokozuna he was, he was still a yokozuna, which is infinitely better than being only an ozeki
>>142946251wrong, compare futahaguro's legacy with kaio's
>>142946114>lot rarer than you are making it sound.Hakuho really fucked up everybody's perception of this sport. It's so wild that people think zenshos should just be a common thing.
>>142946591That's because of the alleged violence and storm-out, not his record. If he'd somehow dropped dead in January '88, he probably has a legacy closer to Kisenosato.
>>142943856which is why so many people watch amateur sumo?
shishi vs shirokuma in juryo tonight
>>142946239I thought I knew the answer's history well enough to recognize him, but ig I was wrong My guess was Harumafuji, which while incorrect, wasn't off in terms of what you meant. Some Shodai-like streaks and dicking around before going on to be a rock-solid yokozuna in that ultra-competitive era at the top end
>>142944855>My point is that the most recent examples we have seen indicate that a sufficiently high-level J/D is the same as a Y (only valid for 1Y not both) to the current people in power.Kisenosato aside, the "sufficiently-high level J/D" is 14-1. Even in this fantasy scenario where he beats Teru but loses the yusho, the best score he's getting is 12-3. That's not cutting it unless 2 other yokozuna magically appear on the banzuke and Koto beats them on top of all the other ozeki.>>142944902>Do you in all seriousness see him not being promoted after a sequence of 11-4 J 13-2 J 12-3 Y?Yes I see him not getting promoted, since Takanohana and Hakuho had better scores than your fantasy sequence and still didn't get promoted as we've established.
>>142947173>Even in this fantasy scenario where he beats Teru but loses the yusho, the best score he's getting is 12-3 he is 8-2, the scenario would be 13-2 but locked out of a playoff chance due to terunofuji going 14-1. how are you gonna do all these queries but get his potential record wrong>hakuho and takanohanahakuho was 20 and there was asashoryu sitting as a healthy dominant yokozuna. they had just promoted akebono to yokozuna during that takanohana periodwe have a corpse they fill with oxyi and tren for a win once a year to make sure the public still play along with the functioning yokozuna narrator.
>>142947355>but get his potential record wrongDoesn't matter, his hypothetical record isn't good enough even at 13-2.>play along with the functioning yokozuna narratorSumo does not need a yokozuna. There's been multiple periods where there were no yokozuna on the banzuke. You fuckers always say they'll be more lenient to give someone the rope when there are no yokozuna left for marketing, but it's never happened once post-Futahaguro.
half of the makushita championship match has been decided kurohimeyama from sakaigawa beya will be one of the competitors
>>142947464>post-Futahagurothere are already examples of one jy and one y promotions in this thread. the last time they didn't have a yokozuna was a 4 basho period before akebono got the rope over 30 years ago. nobody argues that there needs to be a yokozuna. the jsa wants a yokozuna so they can do all the yokozuna things that ozeki cant
>>142946836Why would anyone watch the B league
>>142947509the chink ended up being the other entrant into the makushita championship match
>>142947690the world championships are very popular in some sports, why not in sumo? people watch olympic boxing
sumo-food-brahs,this was an epic lolcaw!
>>142947760Good match though.

>>142944375He won? Dump it.
A bear would beat a lion in a real fight.
>>142947760So much spinning
>>142947650>there are already examples of one jy and one y promotions in this thread.I literally had the image of the last JY-Ys that led to promotions as my image. The point is they didn't lower standards just to get a yokozuna. Those 3 promotions all happened when there were still yokozuna on the banzuke. People made the same arguments for promoting Keisho when he went last went JY-Y. "Teru's going to intai any day now so they're definitely giving Keisho the rope!" And guess what, nothing fucking happened.Jun-yusho =/= yusho equivalent. While there's no hard and fast rules for determining what a yusho equivalent is, we know it has to be a damn exceptional run. Going by past precedent, nothing Kotozakura could do this basho would qualify for yokozuna promotion short of winning the cup.
>consecutive monoiiiiisbad look for a gyoji
>>142947878Doesn't he need to submit a resignation letter for each gunbai sashichigae? What if they accept one of those letters and the gyouji "quits" (as a joke)
>>142947869nothing happened with takakeisho because he didn't follow it up with a strong enough yusho. 15-0 14-1 would have gotten it iirc what was being said at the time from the jsa>past precedentbeating all other ozeki and yokozuna has been established as past precedent
Shimazuumi's hand definitely touched down 1st

>>142947972Imagine how hard Takashitshow will be sweating.
>>142947888no, only the tategyoji has to do that
>>142947921>beating all other ozeki and yokozuna has been established as past precedentBeating multiple ozeki and yokozuna is the past precedent and/or getting 14-1. Option B is out and there's only 1 other healthy ozeki and 1 "healthy" yokozuna.
>Fourth monoii in like 30 minutes nowlol
another one
I have never seen a dispray this shamefur before
>>142947992Good to know, thanks.
Anoda one
That was some damn good footwork.
>All the gyoji are being sacrificed so that Terrornofuji's knees can withstand the rest of the tournament
This is not Terunofuji we are seeing on screen. His knees have been replaced with robot prosthetics. The being on screen right now is known only by its codename: MECHANOFUJI.
rikishi should just get the roboknees installed before they debut. a new age of long-lived big men,

that's ma boy. Now to see how high he can end up on the banzuke. If he wins out, a 12-3 should put him in mid upper maegashira, and he might be back to sanyaku by nobember
roga the eternal 7-8
That was entertaining, to say the least. Good fight Endo and Kinbou.
oh no... the clamps... they are spreading
THAT'S OUR BOY
That was a kino match by Mainoumi that they showed on NHK just now.

Please don't tell me we're going to see another mental midget makekoshi from Oho.
why are most american sumo fans fat as hell but most spectators in kokugikan are slim?
>>142948345Basho is currently in Nagoya, its hot and humid as hell, theres barely any air conditioning in the arena so imagine going there as 400 lbs american fan while stuffing yourself in to one of those japanese sized seats
>>142948084Japanese faces are too fat8/10
>>142948366no
>>142948366>american sumo enjoyer>too fatyou need to shinko back...
>>142948345>but most spectators in kokugikan are slim?They usually only show people in the box seats. They don't show the peasants in the stadium seats unless they've got an amusing sign or towel.
i like hiradoumi more and more, he always delivertoo bad he's a midget
Hiradoumi straddles the line between muscle manlet and Takakeisho just about perfectly
I don't like Hiradoumi's face.
This is where it officially becomes over for KiriSHITma
This is it. If Kirishima drops this, he's done for.I thought they were doing Ozeki showdowns early but I forgot that Kirishima is S.
NOOO AAACK
>Kirishima
Kirishima lives to see another day.
>Kotozakur-ACK!
Figures.
That's our ACK.
Teru retiring
>Zak thinks he has a yokozuna in him>can't even beat kiriSHITmadeluded
>>142948508The dog in him is trying to escape
Gou fell for the same trick TWICE. Come on, man.
>Kakakeisho bleeding
Damn...
Nephew is a good gatekeeper, but he will never be Yokozuna.
Terror has cybernetic knees under those straps.
terunofuji is a good gatekeeper but he'll never be a PROPER yokozuna, just second best in a fading generation, keeping the throne warm for a real successor
>>142948644He's about to score 10 wins. That's not proper?
HOLY SHIT HE LOST!!
LOL
GET FUCKED
Onosato Yokozuna in 2 years, boys.Trust the plan.
>tummy fallmy zensho...
Nagoya back to throwing cushions!
lololololollololololololololololololol
ONOSATO YOKOZUNA THIS VERY BASHO
KNEES FAILED
we're back again
KotozACKura, take notes. That's how you're supposed to look if you want to prove you deserve yokozuna.
No bullying juniors today!
>>142948660lol
FUCKTeru over-extended going for the belt.
Teru grabbed a handful of sagari instead of belt. Bad luck.
>Ross is a Swiftie
>>142948698Really? What did he say?
How does one go from crippling knees in one basho to actually being able to go toe to toe with Onosato which has one of the strongest tachiai in terms of power?Seriously speaking, what the fuck is up with Teru's knees... Something's pretty fishy there.
ahahahaha
>>142948712He was dealing with a back issue more than a knee issue lately, iirc.
>>142948704>Terunofuji, all he can do is shake his head... and as Taylor Swift might say, "shake it off." He'll come back tomorrow against Abi.Exact quote.
>>142948712>How does one go from crippling knees in one basho to actually being able to go toe to toe with OnosatoTerunofuji at 50% health is stronger than 90% of the division.
>>142948749Sad!
>>142948812no it isn't, yokozunas are supposed to be that dominant
Teru just hit the hardest part of his schedule, collapse imminent, 11-4 JY incoming
>>142949119mongol brotherhood will sacrifice for him
Anyone else a big Takakeisho fan? He might not have the best record atm but he's doing his best and I hope he achieves his kachi-koshi by the end :)
>>142949243he needed 10 wins
>>142948685this. both hands got it. >>142949402kirishima needs 10. takakeisho only needs to get kk
>>142949402Why? Isn't it just 8 wins minimum to not be demoted after getting kadoban?
>>142949484>>142949495true true i had kiri in my mind
please ignore this.
The only san'yaku left for Kirishima is Abi, maybe he has a chance?
>fucking ZABUTON mass throwCHILL, motherfuckers, he's a SEKIWAKE
>>142949976a Japanese sekiwake
Nabatame is a shitter. He was acting like a retard after getting promoted acting like he was the king of juryo. Hopefully this embarrassing performance is a wake up call.
>>142949119>he thinks hoshitryu or current form takashitter will beat terunofujihe can lose to kotozakura but will finish 13-2 and win the yusho pretty easily
>>142949976yeah but his rank is inflated, they're throwing the zabutons in honor of m8-m6 mainstay onosato
>>142949976>t. NSKIt was a huge upset. Let people throw them. I'd prefer them to get thrown than for them to be bolted down.

>>142954948>saint/sacred hakuhohe's hakuho's pupil, no wonder... there's also one rikishi whose kanji are read as hakuho but mean something else. I dont think that's a coincidence.
I think we all wanted to see Terunofuji get a zensho-yusho and retire. That would have been poetic and honestly, he deserved it. I didn't want to see Onosato winning after this week of looking like a total fucking buffoon day in and day out. This is a sour taste. Bah.
>>142948736>this exceptionally common and colloquial phrase is now a Taylor Swift quoteFuck right off
>>142955275I'm mad that Nishikigi is giving up wins to everybody except my good friend Takarafuji.
could this be enhos time? amazing bout today, cartoonishly clean
>>142954948They've been waiting since Genghis Khan for a new idol, give them a break
>>142951632He did lean into it awful quick, but I can't really blame him. I think we can all see he's been quite humbled by now so hopefully that produces a change for the better. Then again I always thought the practices seemed rather easygoing in the Futagoyama videos. Even the uncut ones, I felt like the Oyakata should have been cracking the whip on those fools way more often.
>>142955478Hah, so true. Hakuho deserves a giant statue more than Genghis though.
>>142955604that's what they don't want to show though, these videos are done for zoomers to be interested in sumo.
>>142955275would he even retire if he got a zensho, be honest
>>142957175Hopefully they'd start pressuring him to. It doesn't really seem fair that the best rikishi in the business also gets to just take off as many tournaments as he wants and drop out whenever he wants if he's just not feeling it for a tournament.
>>142957175>>142955275He's not retiring until he gets elder stock. Even if he's injured for a full year, either he gets elder stock or the JSA has to straight-up order him to retire, which would be unprecedented just for injury with no other misconduct.
>>142957221So what's stopping him? There's no chance he'll get the ichidai toshiyori, being Mongolian and after Hakuho, but he should know that. There are seven elders that either retire this year or have already passed the retirement age and been rehired as 'consultants'.
>>142957574>So what's stopping him?Boss Isegehama turns 65 next July
>>142954948>>Wish-I-was-Hakuho the 33rdArguably the same thing happened before with the Hawaiians.
>>142955340It's very common, yes, but Taylor was mentioned BY NAME. He didn't need to do that. Ross has Swift on the mind, he's a Swiftie. So you fuck off.
>>142957574Even though on paper the elder stock are just titles the JSA can shift around as they please, in reality there's still a ton of politicking and financial concerns that goes into when elders retire and who gets their stock when they do. JSA wants to make sure that all the elders who bought stock before it became a public interest company get financially compensated so they don't have problems in retirement, and that means guys like Terunofuji are unofficially still expected to have enough supporter backing to ensure the retiring elder whose stock he wants to inherit is taken care of. It's why it took Kakuryu 3 years after becoming a citizen and retirement before he got a permanent stock.
>>142949119Teru will win 14-1 keisho is hurt (didn’t stop him from shitting on kirishitma tho) zak and nephew have never beaten him but zak and nephew has never met a unhealthy teru they’ve always had to fight him at his healthiest.
>>142958809That wasnt directed at you but rather against the thought of taylor swift being quoted
>>142952748>upset>a sekiwake coming off a fresh yusho with an equal record against the yokozuna>upset
>>142960547Ah, sorry.
>Terunofuji finally lost a boutHe withdrawing, innit.Also,>the absolute shanty town of shitzekisGrim, grim, grim.
>>142961239gate
>>142959076Whose stock did akiseyama get?
>>142960647>5-5 vs 10-0 Yokozuna Pretty big upset if choketozakura didn’t lose this would be bigger
>>142961763He's currently renting Shimanoumi's, he'll need to get a permanent stock before Shimanoumi retires.
>>142961763Izutsuhttps://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/202308100000418.html
>>142961795So he can get bounced if he can’t secure a permanent stock before shimanoumis retirement?
>>142961866Correct. Obviously Teru doesn't want to risk that, it would be his last resort if he's forced to retire and can't find a permanent stock before his 5-year grace stock expires.
Kikuchi won again
>>142963625Against a 47 year old man. Woof.

So the big guys start in a couple hours?
>>142966284juryo in 45bings then maegashira 1 hour later or so
>>142966210It's been a terrible basho for him. He seems to take losses to heart, so I bet he'll be noticeably depressed in some upcoming sumo food vids.
>>142948508He's got a face like a smacked bottom and that's why we love him.
>>142948508but he's shy and antisocial just like us
>>142966321Alright, I like him now.
>>142966304he might put on a big public show of pouting over his own mediocrity, be he will never put in the necessary hours of daily training and practice needed to overcome the weakest of his body and his lack of skill on the dohyo. its a lot easier to just pretend to be sad while leading a lazy life than it is to do what it takes to earn victory
>>142966354Have sex incel
futagoyama's worst basho probably. They all failed except Soma, hopefuly Keiga can still make it 5-2.
>>142966331You can't not love Hiro. He's seemingly overmatched in every bout and just continually guts out wins. Every time he's promoted, I say to myself - "there's no way he can compete at this level"... And yet he does. Here he sits after day 11 - 7-4. Of his 11 opponents so far - 10 of them have won the emperor's cup. Amazing.
Authoritative win for Aonishiki.
>>142966354What you described fits me perfectly.
sumo-food-bras ...this was just another epic lolcow
>>142966420He could be in juryo before the year is out
>>142966608Funny that oyakata raved about what great shape everyone was in right before the basho.
What a mess of a bout.
>>142966681Shimazuumi lost last night in the one juryo contest that didn't end in a monoii, but the gyoji called it for him.
>>142966648exactly, i commented the same earlier. seems he jinxed the whole beya with that lol
>>142966767Not at all. This is just how they perform at full strength.
>>142966774thats what laying on the floor looking at your phone all day earns you
>>142966767>>142966774>>142966789Kikuchi will be at Makuuchi in 5 years, Nabatame will choke forever on juryo, at best.Kikuchi will be next Miyabiyama!

>>142966942Its worth noticing that Roga is barely a part of those videos, makes no effort to be amusing when he is and that he is openly hostile to Staff on occasion. And he ended up in Makuuchi while the rest of them languish in unsalaried ranks.
Damn, thought he had him.
