Today is the begininning of 2011 Sumo Tournament.
First day, Baruto meets Maegashira#1 Toyonoshima who marked second position in last tournament,as you know.
Toyonoshima has only 170cm.
Small target.
Baruto chose pushing start for a small wrestler.
You know why?
Pls check last tournamet bout (click to movie).
I think Baruto had not wanted Toyonoshima to be inside.
Baruto kept chasing and pushing aggressively.
Lose is lose but this sumo style to rush forwards is voted by us.
○E-M1_Toyonoshima1-0(hikiotoshi)W-O_Baruto0-1
1 lose.

This is over-compensation -- Baruto didn't lose to Toyonoshima last time -- he lost to trip. His leg failed to be on ground. Maybe he needs more strength in back, or leg, or chest. But last time he didn't lose to Toyo. This time he lose to Toyo! Why? Because he change his strategy.
Thank you Chuchai san for posting this, first day fight. I am sorry Baruto lost.
Who are those people in orange seats? They look important.
Thank you,vendorune san!
Good comment.
orange seats people were our Emperor and Empress.
Is there presence something out of ordinary (say, to help sumo return its respect after all the bad publicity), or they go every now and then?
Oh, and thanks in advance for covering once again a sumo tournament!
