With a reputation for producing surprise champions and upset victories, the Osaka sumo tournament has long been known as the "stormy spring meet." This year, the storm has already passed and the tournament is instead in the doldrums. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2024/03/13/sumo/sumo-doldrums-scandal-osaka/ #sumo #springgrandsumotournament #osaka #hakuho #onosato

Wow, another great day of September #sumo #basho. I love our new yokozuna, #Terunofuji is an absolute bear and he has great dignity. I am also a big fan of #Ichinojo and I love it any time he has fight in him, however it turns out. You never know what you're going to get with him unfortunately.
I was watching when #Tochinoshin was at his peak, but Terunofuji wasn't fighting at that time. (Injured?) Now Tochinoshin is at what looks to me like half power and I'm saddened because watching his peak form go against our new yokozuna would have been spectacular.
I'm glad that Terunofuji didn't have to share his first basho as yokozuna with the ongoing drama slash garbage fire that is his fellow yokozuna #Hakuho's graceless, ego driven fight to put off retirement. Hakuho is the kind of person who can find and will use every possible advantage. It's what makes him great and it is also what makes him terrible. I suspect he is not like this only in the ring. A yokozuna cannot be seen to decline and must retire rather than go back down the ranks. The older he gets, the less his strength, speed and skill can keep him at the very top and the more he has to rely on just being an absolute bastard. He fights not only his opponents but the #sumo elders. He will never retire gracefully. Gosh I hope I get to see Terunofuji retire him! I just love to see Hakuho lose, it's my favourite thing in all of sumo.
