Hakuho won his 37th yusho when Kisenosato fell to Kakuryu on the last bout of the day. Just before, Hakuho withstood a great challenge from Harumafuji, securing his 28th win in a row. Tomorrow he will aim to keep the streak alive against Kakuryu. Kisenosato’s 10th jun-yusho must feel particularly bitter tasting.
Great tachi-ai from Harumafuji though…
Yes. For a second I thought he’d got him but as soon as he kicked that sore ankle, he was done.
