Re: Sumo Wrestling- the January 2021 Tournament

@beach-mom- I did not see the illegal move by Daieisho.  Yes, on to Osaka!

@qbetzforreal - If you want to, you can still see it online. Type in "Grand Sumo," which will take you to the NHK Grand Sumo page. Scroll down and you'll see the videos. Go to Day 12. It's about halfway through- on my iPad at 14 minutes in. You don't have to watch the whole thing- I just scroll across until I see the faces!

I'm still having trouble with that blatant violation, but as I said in my last post, I just hope it was accidental. I've seen the gyogi stop the match and disqualify the wrestler when it has happened in the past. 

See you in other forums here- or here in March. Nine wrestlers were out with COVID this time. It looks like they're optimistic moving the tournament back to Osaka!  Smiley Happy
