Josh, Andy and Bruce return to discuss the upcoming tournament in Fukuoka, who we are watching closely this time, and of course our always regrettable predictions. We discuss shin-komusubi Kiribayama, September Jun-yusho winner Myogiryu, the return of “Big Guns” Shohozan, The return of Abi, and the sekitori premier of Hakuho’s giant deshi Hokuseiho. It’s 25 minutes of your life you will never get back, so why not spend it with us?
Yes, Bruce makes a mistake involving Enho….
Hakke’yoi ! Can’t wait for ur podcast ! :-) !
Hmmm two Part 1s don’t make a Part 2. Thought about watching it again though…
Scrub that, it’s playing Part 2 now. Must be my browser 😉
Love, love, love the podcast! Let’s see what’s going to happen. Go Takayasu Go! From your fan in Seattle…Sharon
I hope Andy does his jonokuchi reports again. Last time I confidently predicted that Mifuneyama absolutely, positively COULD NOT LOSE… and then he lost to Setonoumi. I’ve got some similarly ill-informed ideas about who will be “King of the Basement” in Kyushu, but I’ll save them for now.
I will be. :) I’m pretty eager to see this class in action. I think I will include Reiho with this group.
I was thinking that Goseiryu might have a chance until I discovered this startling stat: no wrestler ranked at Jonokuchi 1 East has won the yusho in more than 30 years.
All the more reason to think it will happen now. 🤔😁
Mygoiryu after that last loss… It always amazes me how disappointed these guys look when they get eliminated, considering that they’re never thinking about the yusho and always just taking it 1 day at a time doing their own brand of sumo. Right?
