SUMO Contest July 2024 Basho

1721824872904.png

"This wrestler" was defeated today (Day 11) by the flying monkey. The finishing move was Yorikri (frontal force out), a basic kimarite where the rikishi maintains a grip on their opponent's mawashi and forces them out of the ring. This is the most common kimarite in Sumo and is the result of about 1/3rd of all matches.
 
Just catching up on past day’s matches. If you want to know what an MCL/ACL tear looks like in real time, watch Asanoyama day 4 bout. Yikes 😬
