Day2 vs Yoshikaze (Nagoya-Basho 2011 July)

Day2 Baruto has Yoshikaze.

Day6 vs Asasekiryu (Kyushu-Basho 2010 Nov)

Grand sumo Tournament Kyushu-Basho Day6

Baruto meets Mongolian Rikishi Asasekiryu.

Baruto had 4 wins 4 loses inthe past bouts.

But last bout was last kyushu-basho in 2009.

Baruto gripped right outside grip easily.

But Asasekiryu tried to attached his head to Baruto's breast (=atama wo tukeru).

If Baruto upset and tried to raise Asasekiryu up,Asa would win thi boiut.

Baruto pressed Asasekiryu downwards.

Asasekiryu was bent.

And threw with right outside grip by "UWATEDASHINAGE"

Start movement was still not smooth.

Waist position was high.

Stepping works were not his best ones.

But no more loses is very important to get emperror's cup.

Ozeki Baruto ○(UWATEDASHINAGE)× Asasekiryu

5 wins 1 lose.

Day15 vs Kyokutenho (Hatsu-Basho 2010 Jan)

Grand Sumo Tournament 2010Jan Day 15

Nice ending!

Baruto recorded 12 wins.

Finally 3 losers Hakuho, Baruto,Toyohibiki are next positon of "Yusho" race.

He beated Hakuho and 4 ozekis in this tournament.

But his total wins within 3 tournaments are 33.

I think his promotion to Ozeki status after this tournament will not be decided.

I re-write Ozeki promotion case study.

Let's make it clear through past history to promote ozeki after 2000
(success case)
2000 sep kaio
komusibi8w7l→komusubi14w1l(torphy)→sekiwake11w4l total33w12l
2002jan tochiazuma
sekiwake10w5l→sekiwake12w3l(second)→sekiwake12w3l(second) total34w11l
2002sep asashoryu

2006jan kotooshu

2006may hakuho

2007sep kotomistuki

2009jan harumafuji
sekiwake10w5l→sekiwake12w3l(second)→sekiwake1w2l(first) total35w10l

second means records second wins
first means records same as tournament winner but defeated at play-off
trophy means wins tournament

(failure case)
2002 mar kotomitsuki maegashira#2 13w2l(trophy)→sekiwake9w6l→sekiwake12w３l total34w11l

Japan Sumo Association does not tell officially in which case filled with to be able to promote to ozeki.

If we learn psat cases,
Ozeki candidate needs

• over 33 wins including at least tropy once in past 3 tournanaments.
• or over 34 wins including 2 times upper than second positions in past 3 tournaments.
• or over 35 wins is enough
• but in any cases above mentioned,staying at upper than "SANYAKU" is favorable.

Everybody knows Baruto has ability as same as now ozekis.

And it is true,Ozeki promotion condition is very high.

Do you know why?

I think Ozeki shuould be Yokozuna candidate.

Ozeki promotion is considered the step to Yokozuna.

If Baruto records 12 over wins with second postion in the next Haru-Basho March , he must promote to Ozeki.

But I think Ozeki is not final goal for Baruto.

He is the man to promote to Yokozuna some day.

12wins are not enough.

Emperio's cup is needed.

I want Baruto to have strong wish to be Yokozuna.

sekiwake BARUTO ○(UWATEDASINAGE)× KYOKUTENHO maegashira #5

12 wins 3 loses.

Anyway, Thank you ,Baruto!

We can get enrergy from your bouts in this tournament.

Day 15 Makunouchi Bouts with Engolish commentary long ver.

Thank you for all to read my blog.

I know my English is poor and sometimes makes you confused.

My wish is just I want to share Sumo world and Baruto to people all over the world.

See you next tournament.

Sometimes I update archives if I get new information.

Day8 vs Miyabiyama (Kugatsu-Basho 2009 Sep)

Miyabiyama was ozeki in the past.

His sumo style is pusher.

Baruto likes this kind of big target pusher,I think.

This bout had been tought to be pushing each other.

Baruto vs Miaybiyama (You can watch HD ver, from this click to YouTube)

Final submission was "UWATE-DASHINAGE".

Baruto started carefully and pushed.

And grabbed opponent belt by his left arm and threw.

Nothing to say today.

Baruto today did sumo logically .

komusubi BARUTO ○(UWAYE-DASHINAGE)× MIYABIYAMA maegashira #2

6 wins 2 looses.
