|I'm not sure about the exact requirements for Ozeki, but I think even if
|Musashimaru yusho's this basho, he wouldn't get Ozeki yet.  The main reason
|for this, I feel, is his lackluster performances in the last two basho's
|(8-7 in both).  Also the fact that he has never had more than 11 wins before
|this basho.  I feel, though, that if he gets at least a jun-yusho in this
|basho and follows it up next time with at least a jun-yusho or 12 wins, he
|should get the Ozeki promotion.  
|
|Does anyone know if it is necessary for someone to have at least 1 yusho's
|experience before becoming Ozeki?
