J13 Tokifudō 5-5 (R)
My own little mono’ii #akibasho2026

Day11
J9 Enhō 4-6 (L)
J13 Tokifudō 5-5 (R)
The gyoji appears to get call right, but it was very close and there probably should have been a mono’ii, see some slo-mo in reply #akibasho2026

#Asakoryu should have gotten the win. Slow motion video shows his right foot is still in the ring while #Shonannoumi’s left fist hits the clay outside the ring.

(I know full well no one cares especially anyone seeeing this post. Which is absolutely fine.)
