Today's opponent Homasho is ranked at Maegashira #2.
Past result between them is 6 wins' Baruto and only 1 win's Homasho.
Homasho is very polite and does not show "Henka" in his starting.
Oh,,,Homasho did "Henka" at starting.
I think Baruto did not predict this starting.
Homasho stepped forward with "Hazeoshi"(=pushing to armpis).
If Homasho pushes with lower postition,Baruto lost today.
Baruto once stood against Homasho pushing,Baruto grasped bel and pulled up.
After fight,Baruto shook his head,,,,,I know the reason.
Every opponents from today will try to trap Baruto at starting not to be pushed.
Ozeki BARUTO ○(TSURIDASHI)× HOMASHO Maegashira #2
2 wins.
