For me this was the bout of the tournament so far. Wakatakakage v Midorifuji was a real contest of guile and sheer muscle instead of weight. Glad to see Shodai back in the W column. And much as I figured Kotozakura to be tournament champion, nobody can fail to be happy to see Ura win.
And above all, I agree with you about us watching history. Forget about Ozeki, effin' Onosato looks to be a Yokozuna in the making.
I think it's very telling that Onosato has been the guy to take advantage of the situation when Terunofuji is not around. I think that's a big sign of what's going to happen once Terunofuji retires. Onosato is the guy who is ready to fill that gap.
It's amazing what he's doing. And his record across his first four makuuchi tournaments is astounding. 'Generational talent' might not even do him justice at this point.
Real excited for that Onosato vs Kirishima tomorrow. Both are having a great tournament and could level out the leader board or put Onosato up even more.
