Haru basho day 3 Juryo Ochiai is interesting jumping into Maegeshira due to amateur sumo, and now racking up the score in juryo, the second one today. He looks strong and has some skills. It isn't going well for Tochimusashi. Atamufuji really tried, and was stronger. But fell first, was directed away. Diamami vs Enho. The previous still can't squat. First win for Enho!!!! He tried to pull him down, did not manage, then tried to pushed him out, it worked. Chiyomaru vs Roga. It wasn't straightforward for Roga, but managed. Chiyonokuni vs. Ichinojo. Considering the first one was also high up in Makuuchi, Ichinojo did good job. His 3rd win. Asanoyama vs. Tohakuryu. What a bout! Tohakuryu started strong, surprised the ex-ozeki. He recovered then after a bit of chase he pushed T. out of the dohyo. Looked quite funny. 5 spotless 3-0. Makuuchi Tochinoshin is up in Makuuchi today. Lost against Chiyoshoma. Oh well. Oho vs. Bushozan. I was hoping for an Oho win. He tired out from the relentless pushypuhy attacks of Bushozan. Sad. It won't be any easier for Oho. From previous matches it seems for me he lost some muscles, getting weaker. Hokuseiho won against Kinbozan. Good. Hiradoumi vs. Ura. Very nice bout! Great struggle. Takayas' won his 8th win against Sadanoumi in the chain of their fights. He never managed to beat Bear. Midori is stronk. Mita was almost thrown by the arm by Wharu. Almost. Perfect henka by Tobizaru. Nishikigi went down quick. Just like with Oho, I hoped a Ryuden win, but did not get it. Hoshoryu did great save. From the brink of the dohyo turned the table. His first win on this basho. He usually beats Kotonowaka. So maybe not a surprise. Kiribayama elegantly channeled Tamawashi's momentum and rolled him out. Nice. A well performing Shodai vs. Takakeisho with yokozuna aspirations. 6-13 was their balance. Maybe this was a big clue how this will end. Takakeisho won with pushypushy.
