Toshinofuji (M15) beat Kyokukaiyu (M16)
Asasuiryu (M13) beat Daiseizan (M17)
Dewanoryu (M14) beat Abi (M12)

Oho (M10) beat Ichiyamamoto (M12)
Takanosho (M11) beat Asakoryu (M9)
Roga (M8) beat Shishi (M10)
Wakamotoharu (M7) beat Nishikifuji (M8)
Kinbozan (M7) beat Oshoma (M9)
Hiradoumi (M5) beat Gonoyama (M5)
Kotoshoho (M6) beat Daieisho (M4)
Fujiseiun (M2) beat Takerufuji (M4)
Fujinokawa (S) beat Abi (M2)
Asanoyama (M1) beat Atamifuji (S)
Yoshinofuji (K) beat Kotozakura (O)
Aonishiki (O) beat Churanoumi (K)
Kirishima (O) beat Fujiryoga (M1)
Onosato (Y) beat Hakunofuji (M3)
Hoshoryu (Y) beat Takayasu (M3)
Leader: 9 at 5-1
Of note: No Kinboshi from Hoshoryu today as he continued his recent winning ways against Takayasu. Now he is 3-3 but really needs to win out and get to 12-3, and even with a championship that may not be enough for some. No unbeatens left after Asanoyama beat Atamifuji, so instead of a sole leader there are now 9 co-leaders including Onosato & Kirishima. No Kinboshi chances tomorrow as both Yokozuna now face the Komusubi. There is also still one winless wrestler left and on demotion fast track-Shishi at 0-6.
Ozeki Watch: Atamifuji’s magic number remains 8 after his first loss, or 6-7 with a championship.
Juryo:
Meisei (J13) beat Hatsuyama (J14)
Tamashoho (J12) beat Tomokaze (J11)
Asahifuji (J12) beat Sadanoumi (J11)
Enho (J10) beat Tokifudo (J13)
Wakanosho (J10) beat Ryuho (J14)
Tanji (J7) beat Mitakeumi (J9)
Nabatame (J6) beat Tohakuryu (J8)
Midorifuji (J6) beat Ryuden (J5)
Wakatakakage (J5) beat Hitoshi (J7)
Shonannoumi (J6) beat Kayo (J4)
Tobizaru (J2) beat Kagayaki (J3)
Chiyoshoma (J1) beat Kazuma (J4)
Onokatsu (J1) beat Shodai (J3)
Leader: Tamashoho, Wakatakakage (6-0)
Of note: No changes at the top but a trio are right behind as Asahifuji now has 5 straight wins, Enho won his second straight and Tobizaru is now past halfway back to a top tier return. Both co-leaders have fellow ex-top tier opponents tomorrow as Wakatakakage faces Mitakeumi and Tamashoho has Meisei. Asahifuji goes for 6 in a row against Ryuho, now 4-2 in his debut effort. Enho will face Tanji.
Lower tier notes: Eisei won his 3rd straight match to go to 3-0, one win from promotion. Moriurara lost in Jonokuchi and it looks like The Streak will continue because he has now WITHDRAWN. Unknown why. That means the equivalent of 1-3 so if he can’t return by Day 9 that’s it, 44. No match for Sunamusashi today, he’ll go for 4-0 when Promotion Day begins tomorrow. Finally, since I haven’t reported on Nishikigi & Tochitaikai yet…both are 1-2 in Makushita. Both have to win out for any chance at a Juryo return, although Nishikigi can maybe afford one more loss.
