Nagoya cemented Aonishiki's status as sumo's leading performer, as his championship-winning return from injury pushed the 22-year-old Ukrainian ahead of both yokozuna in the debate over the sport's current No. 1. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/07/29/sumo/aonishiki-nagoya-winner-promotion/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #aonishiki #julygrandsumotournament #kirishima #atamifuji #hoshoryu #onosato

Aonishiki's push for both promotion and the Emperor's Cup has become the defining story of Nagoya, but Kirishima and several dangerous challengers remain firmly in the hunt with five days to play. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/07/22/sumo/nagoya-basho-final-stretch/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #aonishiki #kirishima #onosato #hoshoryu #julygrandsumotournament #japansumoassociation

For more than 20 years Mongolia has shaped the top of sumo, but recent results suggest that remarkable era of dominance may finally be starting to wind down. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/06/10/sumo/mongolian-sumo-dominance/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #japansumoassociation #hoshoryu #kirishima #asahifuji

The path to victory is wide open for Hoshoryu at the Summer Grand Sumo Tournament, but the scrutiny will also be greater than ever. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/05/08/sumo/summer-basho-preview-hoshoryu/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #summergrandsumotournament #hoshoryu #aonishiki #onosato

With injured yokozuna, a possible Aonishiki promotion and a shifting hierarchy at the top, the spring basho in Osaka could reshape sumo’s balance of power. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/03/06/sumo/2026-march-basho-preview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #aonishiki #springgrandsumotournament #hoshoryu #onosato #kotozakura #kirishima #atamifuji

Three days into the first Grand Sumo Tournament of the year and it’s already looking like Aonishiki could be the man to beat in 2026. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/01/14/sumo/hatsu-basho-week-1/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #hakunofuji #kotozakura #aonishiki #onosato #hoshoryu #newyeargrandsumotournament

Injuries and form concerns cloud sumo’s biggest stars heading into the 2026 hatsu basho, and the Emperor’s Cup race feels far less settled than expected. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/01/09/sumo/hatsu-basho-preview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #januarygrandsumotournament #hoshoryu #aonishiki #onosato #kotozakura #yoshinofuji #asanoyama #fujinokawa

What’s in store for sumo in 2026? https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/01/07/sumo/sumo-2026-preview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #newyeargrandsumotournament #japansumoassociation #onosato #aonishiki #hoshoryu

Aonishiki gives up an average of 7 centimeters and 36 kilograms to his sumo rivals, but the rising Ukrainian star more than makes up for that disadvantage with elite technique. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/12/10/sumo/aonishiki-expert-technique/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #aonishiki #hoshoryu #onosato #ukraine

With two young yokozuna and now a fresh-faced ozeki at the top of the sumo rankings, the future looks bright for Japan's national sport. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/11/26/sumo/aonishiki-first-title-ozeki/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #aonishiki #kyushugrandsumotournament #onosato #hoshoryu

WOW!

Aoniskhiki, der ukrainische Sekiwake, hat heute den Yokozuna Onosato besiegt, den ich aktuell für den stärksten Sumoringer halte.

Der andere Yokozuna hat gegen den Oseki verloren.

Damit steht es jetzt 11-3 für

Aoniskhiki könnte also morgen gewinnen 👍

Onosato’s bid for a first-ever perfect championship came to an end at the hands of Yoshinofuji on day 10 of the ongoing Kyushu Grand Sumo Tournament. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/11/19/sumo/kyushu-basho-week-2/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #onosato #yoshinofuji #hoshoryu #aonishiki #kyushugrandsumotournament

In September, Onosato and Hoshoryu clashed in the first Day 15 title showdown between yokozuna in years, and a rematch could be in the cards later this month. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/11/07/sumo/onosato-hoshoryu-kyushu-basho-favorites/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #kyushugrandsumotournament #onosato #hoshoryu #kotozakura #aonishiki

The final tournament on the sumo calendar, the Kyushu basho often solidifies storylines that were in flux over the previous 12 months and frames narratives for the following year. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/29/sumo/kyushu-basho-banzuke-preview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #onosato #hoshoryu #kyushugrandsumotournament #endo #aonishiki

Rarely seen traditions and plenty of light-hearted moments were on the menu for the Japan Sumo Association's well-received 100th anniversary event. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/08/sumo/jsa-celebrates-100-years/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #japansumoassociation #hoshoryu #onosato

At just 25 years old, and already significantly better than every other wrestler in the sport, the only question that remains for Onosato is how many Emperor’s Cups he will win. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/09/29/sumo/yokozuna-onosato-sumo-king/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #onosato #aonishiki #hoshoryu #autumngrandsumotournament

Onosato and Hoshoryu are off to fast starts at the Autumn Basho, raising fans hopes of seeing a title-deciding yokozuna showdown on Day 15 for the first time in five years. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/09/17/sumo/yokozuna-autumn-basho-good-start/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #onosato #hoshoryu #autumngrandsumotournament

With a new "yokozuna," a new arena, and no shortage of potential stars, the 2025 Nagoya Basho promises to be one of the hottest (figuratively, not literally) of recent years. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/07/11/sumo/nagoya-basho-red-hot/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #onosato #hoshoryu #kotozakura #nagoyagrandsumotournament #kusano

It’s been an historic week for Japan’s national sport, with Onosato’s rapid rise to yokozuna forcing major revisions to sumo’s record books. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/05/28/sumo/onosato-rise-to-yokozuna/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #onosato #wajima #hoshoryu #summergrandsumotournament

Sumo is at its best when there are multiple yokozuna battling for titles. That could soon be the case again if Onosato has his way. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/05/21/sumo/sumo-golden-age-onosato/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #onosato #summergrandsumotournament #hoshoryu

One of sumo’s most reliable truisms is that “results in training mean nothing.” Which means it would be wise for fans of Hoshoryu to not get carried away with the yokozuna's results in training ahead of the May Basho. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/05/09/sumo/sumo-may-basho-preview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #hoshoryu #onosato #kotozakura #summergrandsumotournament #aonishiki #hakuoho

Congratulations Hoshoryu on their new Yokozuna status.

It’s been a rocky start to spring for sumo both in Japan and abroad, with issues over ticketing plaguing an event in London and top wrestlers struggling at the outset of the Osaka tournament. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/03/12/sumo/gunning-sumo-march-2025/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #springgrandsumotournament #hoshoryu #onosato #aonishiki #abi #kotozakura #oho

Can Hoshoryu make it two in a row, or will Onosato be first to three Emperor’s Cups and earn a shot at making yokozuna? That question will be answered at the Spring Basho, which starts in Osaka on Sunday. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/03/07/sumo/sumo-spring-basho-preview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #springgrandsumotournament #hoshoryu #onosato #kotozakura #kotozakura

In professional sumo, the release of every new ranking list signals the imminent arrival of the next official tournament — and the latest has some striking changes. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/02/26/sumo/march-2025-sumo-banzuke/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #banzuke #springgrandsumotournament #osaka #hoshoryu

The ceremonies are complete, the celebrations are done, and now it’s time for sumo’s newest grand champion to get down to the daily task of leading Japan’s national sport. So just what can sumo fans expect? https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/02/19/sumo/hoshoryu-yokozuna-ceiling/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sumo #hoshoryu
