Day14 vs Kakuryu (Kugatsu-Basho 2009 Sep)

Kakuryu is ranked Maegashira #3.
He is from Mongol , 24 years old and his stable (="Heya") Izutsu.
He has already marked 9 wins with defeating 2 ozeki.

BARUTO VS KAKURYU (Click to YouTube HD ver.)

Baruto chose the starting attempting to grab belt and he got his way he wanted.
Baruto thought he got enough position to pull up Kakuryu.
But it looked a tittle bit forcible because Baruto's waist position was high.
Baruto should pull up with making his waist position lower not to be re-attacked.
Kakuryu used outside leg trip and Baurto lost his balance completely.
Kakuryu caught Baruto's off guard.
Overconfidence is our greatest enemy.
Please keep in mind,Baruto.

komusubi BARUTO ×(SOTOGAKE)○ KAKURYU maegashira #3

11wins 3 loses.

Sekiwake Kotoshogiku got 8 over loses today .
It means one sekiwake position will be vacant.
So it is absolutely certain Baruto will be sekiwake next tournament.

Tomorrow is final day (="SENSHURAKU)

The meaning of one win between 11 wins and 12 wins are big.
As I wrote before,total wins through 3 tournaments at "SANYAKU"(=upper than Komusubi)
is a point of promoting Ozeki.
