One contender down, two yokozuna to go. Kisenosato put up a valiant effort but Hakuho was as determined as I’ve ever seen. He was energetic, hopping around with the ozeki’s belt in tow. To me, it looked like a matta should have been called as Hakuho burst out of the gates quickly and Kisenosato, caught flat-footed, never quite recovered enough to go on the offensive.
