When Kotoshogiku won, he dived to Baruto's waist position and rushed.
When Baruto won, he sometimes pulled up Kotoshogiku .
Until last bout,their bouts were typical small wrestler vs big wrestler one.
Baruto vs Kotoshogiku (Click to YouTube HD)
But today's bout are quite different from the past bouts.
Baruto rushed quickly without grabbing koto's belt.In this tournament, Baruto is using his left arm efficiently.
You know "Ottuke"?
Baruto pressed Kotoshogiku's right arm by his left arm.
Baruto did not care whether he grab opponent belt or not.
This is called "Ottuke".
This style can be seen also yesterday's bout against Hakuho.
Baruto!!! Great tactics!!
komusubi BARUTO ○(YORIKIRI)×KOTOSHOGIKU sekiwake
4 wins 2 looses.

As for other bouts,
Hakuho was HIKIOTOSHI ed by Shotenro.
Their debu date were same and came from same country Mongol.
But Hakuho is Yokozuna and Shotenro is promoting very very slowly.
I think Hakuho underestimates Shotenro.
Hakuho's start was not sharp today cause of lack of concentration.

If Baruto ends with score 13-2 is that possible that he gets promoted to sekiwake?
Batu san!
Thank you for your comment.
The point Baruto go up to Sekiwake or not is present sekiwake ranker Kisenosato and kotoshogiku are going to Kachikoshi (=over 8 wins) or not.
Even if Baruto gets 13 wins,he can not be sekiwake in the case of preset sekiwakes are Kachikoshi.
