Day3 vs Yoshikaze (Kugatsu-Basho 2001 Sep)

Yoshikaze thought well his tactics. The point of this bout was Baruto`s high waist position. Baruto was upset by Yoshikaze`s speed. I think Baruto should not choose pushing start. Ozeki Baruto L(Yorikiri)L Yoshikaze Maegashira #2 1 win 2 losts.....

Yoshikaze's gym is Oguruma-Beya which is same gym as Takekaze who fought with Baruto yesterday.
Oguruma-Beya's master is former Ozeki "KOTOKAZE" who fought during early 1980's.

Oguruma-Beya's Rikishi(=wrestler) has Kaze(=wind) in their names.

Yoshikaze means "Fair(=Yoshi) Wind(=Kaze)"



Baruto shook his neck after he won.
I know the reason.
I think he won but he lost,because this is not Baruto's way.
Baruto got right Uwate (=hand over) once but he was took off by Yoshikaze's waist shaking motion.
And Yoshikaze rushed.This was Yoshikaze's way.

Baruto knows his own Sumo style.
Japanese knows wins are not the only way in Sumo.

Baruto knows Japanese way of thinking,,I think.
