Day 12 is done and we are now cruising into the business end of this basho. Now we know who has a chance of winning this and I’m very excited to see which one of them will be the last man standing.
Some great bouts this day including Tamawashi vs. Oho, Onosho vs. Nishikifuji, Takayasu vs. Ryuden and Ura vs. Meisei.
And of course, all the ozeki matches delivered. Each was exciting to watch and each contributed to the narrative of what we might see when this tournament is all said and done.
You can read the results, see replays, and check out my analysis over on Bloody Elbow now (link).
Bonus gif for today is the infinitely likeable Atamifuji.
