Day15 vs Toyonoshimai (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

****click tou YouTubeHQ

Baruto grasped opponent bel by right hand over at the start.

Once Toyonoshima rushed forward but Baruto swang Toyonoshima with uplifting .

Baruto power was mightier than small Toyonoshima......

sekiwake BARUTO ○(TSURIDASHI)× TOYONOSHIMA maegashira#5

This tournament Baruto was lack of impact to sumo fans.

He had not defeated 2 Yokozunas yet.

He unfortunately prove his sumo style was not fixed.

High body start was a bad habit.

Every sumo fans wonder why he lost last tournament's pushing start.

Final score is 9wins 6 losses.

Last septenmber tournament Baruto marked 12wins.

Total wins are 21 wins par 2 tournaments at "SANYAKU"(=over komusubi rank) position.

As I said before,

I think he needs 14 over wins in next January tournament to promote to Ozeki.

Or over 12 wins with Emperor's trophy.

But the point is not only total wins but also the imapct to fans.

Baruto should be a wrestler to frighten Yokozuna and to defeat lower rankers surely.

Anyway We Baruto fans know he will be a Yokozuna someday.

You are the only wrestler we love!

Go Baruto Go!

Sumo video

I have been enjoying Sumo from my younger days.

There were a lot of nice bouts between star wrestlers.

Nihon Sumo Association and NHK(Nihon Hoso Kyokai=Japan Broadcasting Association) have much video contents,I guess ,but it is very difficult for us to watch them now.

I am one of sumo fans and I have been longing to share sumo culture and nice bouts to the world.

Internet comes and I had gotten idea to record bouts and to share among future me and all fans.

But before last tournament ,all my videos uploaded to YouTube were deleted by YouTube team.

So I made some bypass to let video reamain.

• HQ version to YouTube
• Small version to Blogger's video
• Long but small size version to Ustream.

And as I expected some videos last and this tournament have been already deleted.

In the case you find no link to YouTube, it means the videos are deleted.

Small ones are still remained.

If you have a good idea, let me know!

Day14 vs Hokutoriki (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

This is it!

This is sumo style which we want Baruto do!

Baruto grasped opponent belt and mad his head attached to opponent breast and made his body lower.

And finally ,"Hikitsuke"(=pulling opponent belt bilaterally) and "Yorikiri"

Lower body made inevitably his stepping forward movement stable.(="Suriashi")

Stepping should be "Suriashi"(=not like a walking ,like a skating on the ground).

And Yorikiri should be with "Koshi wo waru"(=waist down).

I felt Baruto tried to do so.

Of course,the starting position was still high but I was very happy Baruto tried to pursuit an ideal style of traditional sumo.

============================================================

Day9 vs Asashoryu (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

This is Baruto's 8th challenge to Yokozuna Asashoryu.

Until 7th,no win for Baruto.

To promotoe to ozeki for Baruto,To defeat Yokozuna is a must item.

****click to YouTubeHQ

Baruto today showed a low position attack at starting and a quick step forward.

But Baruto could not keep low position and could not push Yokozuna out of ring.

Yokozuna counterattacked with "Maemitsu."

Baruto could not get Yokozuna's belt.

When Baruto tried to grasp belt,

Yokozuna made Baruto unballanced and threw him to ground.

Baruto did not win but he showed us he was improving.

Day8 vs Harumafuji (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

Harumafuji is not well in this tournament.

His score until yesterday was 3 wins 4 losts.

I think he lost his style to get "Maemitsu" at start.

He does not have a huge body size so ,if he lost his rocket start,

it means ,,,,,you can guess.

****click to YouTube HQ
Baruto pulled up Harumafuji and swang him out of ring.
But ring side judges said "Monoii" and re-judged about Baruto steppe out before Harumafuji feet on the ground.
The conclusion was Baruto's win but I really wonder if he did "Isamiashi".

Day6 vs Kakuryu (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

We have six grand sumo tournaments in a year.

• Jan:Hatsu-Basho or Ichigatsu-Basho (Tokyo)
• March:Haru-Basho or Sangatsu-Basho (Osaka)
• May:Natsu-Basho or Gogatsu-Basho(Tokyo)
• July:Nagoya-Basho or Shichigatsu-Basho (Nagoya)
• Sep:Aki-Basho or Kugatsu-Basho (Tokyo)
• Nov:Kyushu-Basho or Jyuichigatsu-Basho (Hakata)

Now Kyushu-basho is held at Fukuoka Kokusai Center

The capacity is 7000 seats.

But we can see many vacant seats through my video.

Do you know why?

I think the reason is only two wrestler (Hakuho and Asashoryu) is too strong.

We,sumo fans , want a new hero!

Do you know who will be a new hero?

No doubt it is our BARUTO.

If Baruto shows big scale bout like today, he must be more popular.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Today's opponent sekiwake Kakuryu is from mongol.

He has not express his sumo style yet and score until yesterday is 2 wins 3 losts.

Goeido has a high pressure starting and rushing forward skill.

Whenever Baruto defeated Goeido, Goeido lost because of his mistake.

****click tou YouTubeHQ

Today's Baruto sumo-ed very well.

He reminded last tournament pushing start style.

His stepping pressure was enough to make Goeido unbalanced.

Only Baurto had to do was to use Goeido counter forward power .

Goeido fell down easily.

Sign of spring!

Kotoshogiku is ranked Maegashira #2 in this tournament.

The results between them in 2009 were ,

• 2009mar Baruto ○(Hatakikomi)×Kotoshogiku
• 2009jan Baruto ×(Sukuinage)○ Kotoshogiku

******click to YouTube HD

I guess Kotoshogiku had planned his strategy carefully.

Kotoshogiku did not allow Baruto to grasp his belt.

Kotoshogiku got inside of Baruto and made use of his big berry to lift Baruto up(="Gaburiyori")

Baruto's start was very dull.

His waist position was very high and stepping forward pressure was loose.

But this defeat comes to Baruto's senses certainly.
