Day9 vs Toyonoshima (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

Day9

Baruto(7-1) has Komusubi Toyonoshima(1-7).
Toyonoshima is loosing his sumo style in this tournament.


Baruto has passed 8 wins line.

Rushing forward steps work was good.
As I mentioned many times,Baruto tends to step like walking.
But Sumo step work should not make souls apart from ground.

Baruto steps work this tournament is like Sumo steps work(="suri-ashi")

And final pushing by his belly was very effective not to be counter-attacked at the edge of the ring.

I still dont like Baruto's tachiai. He just stands up. He wins because he is strong but his technique is far from perfect. Nande tsuppari wo shinainoha yoku wakaranai... He should use a little bit of oshi sumo as well. He did it when he became an Ozeki.
