Hakuho greets him in an Osaka parking lot with on open-handed slap of doom a la the July 2021 Nagoya tournament to defend the honor of his former protege. The assembled throng cheers.

Isegahama-beya coach ex-Homarefuji spoke after the toshiyori-kai.

Ex-Yokozuna Terunofuji will miss Osaka Basho after violence toward Hokunofuji.

Homarefuji says no unrest in the heya. Probe ongoing; temporary kyujo decided. Terunofuji absent, staying inside since reporting to the Kyokai

Aonishiki won all 7 degeiko bouts vs. Sekiwake Kirishima and Komusubi Wakamotoharu at Arashio beya.

At Hatsu Basho, he became the first rikishi in 89 years to win consecutive yusho as Sekiwake and new Ozeki.

If promoted to Yokozuna in 2 basho, he’d be only the 3rd since Futabayama and Terukuni

As the temperature approaches 90 degrees I reckon it's a good time to smoke 5 lbs of a Bell and Evan's chicken wings over a nice aged pecan fire. New Orleans, 9th ward.

NHK News today regarding Japan Sumo Association announcement on Terunofuji's assault on Hakunofuji

"We will discuss the punishment at the riji-kai after the basho."

Chairman Hakkaku needs to have his feet put to the fire over this debacle. Haru basho does not end until March 22nd.

Unacceptable.

Ex-Yokozuna Terunofuji is being questioned by the Kyokai for violence toward protΓ©gΓ© Maegashira Hakunofuji

Questioned in Tokyo as Haru Basho rankings were announced, he expressed remorse. Hakunofuji isn’t training; disciplinary action is under review.

Teru could be out the door here. This is big.

Aonishiki’s body is shaping up to Yokozuna standards.

At his first keiko in Osaka today, he did shiko and gym exercises, while reporting a weight gain from 308 lbs to 316 lbs.

He is aiming to tie Hakuho and Onosato for the fastest Yokozuna promotion after two Ozeki tournaments.

For the first time in 15 years, two Fujishima-beya rikishi reached Makuuchi together: Fujiseiun (28) to M13W and Fujiryouga (22) to M17E.

Fujiseiun, known for having the strength of an ox, called it perseverance rewarded. Fast-rising Fujiryouga aims to fight like his Oyakata former Ozeki Musouyama
