Dude deserves it. He also seems like the sweetest guy.

Takakeisho has really slimmed down in a short amount of time. Wish I could pull that off 😆 Where's our Roga fan? He's had a pretty decent tournament for coming back from Juryo.

This is just a fantastic tournament. So much of the new guard doing the work, with Kusano looking to go back-to-back down at Juryo (and surely a problem for the top division when he comes up).

It's also great seeing guys like Atamifuji (still so young), Hakuoho (same), and Kirishima (he could still make Yokozuna one day) rounding back into form after injury issues.

I'm desperate for Kiri to make another yoko run. When he's on, he's my favourite rikishi to watch. So crafty, so cool, so strong when he has to be.

Yeah, glad he's over those injuries, or at least appears to be. He's a total package/all-rounder kind of guy, so I feel like he'll make it there, even if he's the kind of yoko (like most of the ones in this generation I'd guess) who will finish with 6-7 cups
