Re: [sumo] Asashouryuu AWOL
IMS, he was down on his face in a second or two, a very un-Takanohana
way of losing. More than a few people had their doubts about that
bout, but the hey, it was his big brother. Now that they're feuding
he's twisting the knife: "Oh yeah, that bout, well I...uh...(wink,
wink)."
Urban legend. It was a 20 second-ish bout, which is quite long in Sumo
terms, and he was never "down on his face"-he was pushed/thrown out on
the tawara. That said, Taka could have "thrown" the match, who knows..In
any case, it was far from being over in seconds.
For convenience, I've uploaded the bout- jerkier than beef, but you can
still get the picture..
