2012 Jan Grand Sumo Tournament Hatsu-Basho Day15 (final day).
Baruto(14-0) has Yokozuna Hakuho(12-3) today final day.
Baruto has beaten Hakuho 3 times in all 22 bouts.
But Baruto has beaten Hakuho 2 times in these 5 tournaments.
I think the reason why Baruto has reached to the top in this tournament,originated in the bout Baruto beat Yokozuna in last 2011 Nov tournament.
Its bout consists in Baruto improvement.
- Quick attack
- Not quitting attack
- Controlling opponent neck
- Heavy and well-target pushing
- Good step work
- "Haze Oshi"(pushing opponent armpit)
- Good reaction(not think much) and move instinctively
Baruto has to win to complete in "Zensho Yusho"(=no losses victory).
Hakuho has to show Yokozuna pride.
44 flags for prize.
(winner gets all prize.one flag=￥50,000-. total ￥2,200,000-)
Baruto selected both arm pushing.
I think Hakuho positioned in farer than usual.
Hakuho seemed to expect Baruto pushing.
And Hakuho used his trunk softly and absorbed Baruto power.
Hakuho gripped Baruto left arm and did "Tottari"(=using leverage power).
Baruto was unbalansed and was fixed by Yokozuna's "Hidari Yotsu"(=left inside and right outside grip).Baruto could not grip belt.
Baruto attacked by left sukuinage but Hakuho finalized this bout.
I think Hakuho sumoed logically.
Baruto W(YORIKIRI)L Hakuho
14 wins 1 defeat.
I think Baruto will begin in this defeats for stepping up to next stage.
