Baruto(10-2) fights against Tochinoshin(10-2).

Tochinoshin is from Europe but his stable "Kaugano" trains him like a Japnese trad style sumo.

Tochinoshin is very clever and he shows his bset sumo if he grips belt by left arm.

Tochinshin had thought today's tactics well.

He never allowed baruto to get belt.

And Tochinoshin got his style

Day11 vs (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

Day11.

Baruto has Maegashira #4 Okinoumi(6-4).

Okinumi means "Oki"(=name of his birth island) "no"(=of) "umi"(=sea).

Okinoumi means Sea of Oki island.

Baruto's start was stll high but stepped quickly.

His inside left arm was succeeded in grip belt.

This style("Migi-Yotsu") was Baruto's best.

I know pushing style is the best but he does not have to push to today's big opponent.

Baruto used opponent rushing power to his throwing power.

Baruto threw with moving back.

Okinoumi lost target and was trown completely.

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.

Day8 vs Takekaze (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

Day8("NAKA-Bi")

Baruto fights against Maegashira#4 Takekaze.

They fought about 2 years ago and Baruto lost.

It is not easy to understand that past result is 2 wins Baruto,3wins Takekaze.

Last time Baruto lost.(Click to past bout)

What a short bout!

Baruto yoriki Takekaze with in half second.

Baruto these days could watch the opponent motion.

Stepping speed in the start was very quick.

Rushing forward was full throttle.

Really getting better.

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

Today he passed 8 wins line.

Kaisei is ranked in the bottom of Maegashira but new entery and first entry to Makuuchi is not easy. So his sumo style is very stable and logical.We have to keep waching him.

Result Day8

Day7 vs Kitataiki (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

Day7 Baruto meets 1-5 Maegashira #3 Kitataiki.

How do you think Baruto's sumo in this touranment?

The starting is still high position but his stepping forward is very quick.

This is his good motin inthis tournament.

Kitataiki tied change at the starting.

But Baruto's rushing pressure did not allow Kitataiki changed.

Ozeki BARUTO ○(TSURIDASHI)× KITATAIKI Megashira #3

6 wins only 1 lost.

Day6 vs Kisenosato (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

sorry for updating late.

Baruto after day4 interview has expressing his aggressive sumo style.

Kisenosato is ranked Sekiwake who is famous for defeating Hakuho straight winning.

But Kisenosato is now 2-3 and he lost his style.

Did you see Baruto pulled his "Sagari"(=hung decoration at frint part if belt) aggressively.

Baruto could concentrate on the bout.

Baruto is really getting better!!!!!

Ozeki BARUTO ○(TSUKIOSTOSHI)× KISENOSATO Sekiwake

Day5 vs Tochiozan (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

I got today's tournament ticket.

I went to "Kokigikan".

The seat was very close to the ring(="dohyo")

The ring in ceremony of East "Makuuchi Rikishi"

I shouted "Baruto!!!

Our Baruto meets Tochiozan who is ranked West-Maegashira#2.

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.

After bout

Ozeki BARUTO ○(YORKIRI)× TOCHIOZAN Maegashira #2

4 wins 1 lost.

Baruto is getting better.

His interview matter on day3 was bad thing but actually it makes him concentrated on bout.

Day4 vs Aminishiki (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

Day4 Baruto has 2-1 Maegashira #3 Aminishiki.

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.

Baruto's said somthing sensational to media yesterday

Day3 vs Goeido (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

Day1 vs Homasho (Tech-Exam 2011 May)

Ozeki BARUTO ○(SUKUINAGE) ×　HOMASHO Maegashira#2

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.
I will,,,,,,,,,...
