Baruto these days could watch the opponent motion.

Stepping speed in the start was very quick.

Really getting better.

Kaisei who was from Barazil.This tournament is his first "Makuuchi".

Today he passed 8 wins line.

Tochiozan has low starter.

"Yobidashi"(=Ring name call")

Baruto vs Tochiozan

Left inside arm (="Hidari Shitate") was very effective.

Eve if Baruto cannot grip opponent belt, Baruto can lift up the opponent up and rush forward.

This style "hidari shitate"(=left inside arm) style (="migi Yostu") should be emphasized.

Nothing to say,Aminishiki is very skillful sumotori.

In yesterday's bout interview,Baruto commented "This tournament is half serious"

"I can not concentrate",newspapers and TV news reported.

I think this comment was over reporeted by media but this comment brought a big sensation to Japanese and Sumo funs in this circumstances.

All I want is Baruto express himself by wins.

Uuuuuum,good fight!!!

Baruto was full of energy.

Rushing power was amazing.

I think Baruto fought against irresponsible media report.

How are you,Baruto?

No TV Broadcasting.

NHK does have a Grand Sumo Tournament program in usual time.
But this Technical Examination is not usual.
No entrance fee, for example.

Do you have an idea to watch bout?

Real time streaming will be held in Sumo Kyokai Website.
But they will not re-stream......

In Japan this time,we have on demand service day by day.
I think I will buy day bouts programs.

If you loose chance to watch real time streaming,please check my blog.
