A Journey to the Levant
I predicted that Hakuho will win the March tournament.
Well, I was wrong, and Yokozuna Asashoryu won.
Unfortunately, or luckily, I was too busy during my visit to Japan, so I couldn’t follow the March Sumo Tournament.
But, the Sumo website is wonderful in providing real time (and streaming) information, so I am planning to follow it.
Current results:
Asashoryu is 7-0
Hakuho is 6-1
while Kotooshu is 2-5.
So, the big question is who will win? Mongolian Yokozuna Asashoryu or Mongolian Yokozuna Hakuho.
I am placing my bet on Hakuho.
From Mainichi :
“The Japan Sumo Association (JSA) on Wednesday suspended Yokozuna Asashoryu for two upcoming tournaments after he played in a charity soccer game in Mongolia despite having sat out a regional sumo tour in Japan after claiming to be injured”.
I guess this means Hakuho (白鵬) will win the next two tournaments.
