Day 6 :   UNBEATEN YOUNG BOY - TOCIHAZUMA  LOST TODAY!
              NO MORE UNBEATEN RIKISHI.   SEVEN RIKISHI TIED, ONE LOSS !

The leader - unbeaten Tochiazuma, ranked at the bottom in makuuchi-div,
was pushed out by yellow belter Asanowaka.    No unbeaten rikishi.

The sumo pool bout : Sumo boy komusubi Musoyama showed his great tachiai
against tall ozeki Takanonami.   Musoyama gave his pushing attack against
ozeki and ozeki Takanonami was defensive as usual.      Everyone believe
that Musoyama would win, but Takanonami has a unbelievable ring sense.
When Musoyama tried to pushed Taka out, Takanonami showed his kote-nage
throwing and narrowly won!    Musoyama did a good job, but lost the bout.

Yokozuna Akebono got a yorikiri win against dangerous opponent Akinoshima
and finally became one of the co-leaders.   Akinoshima tried to got a
uwate-grip, but it didn't success.    Akebono forced him out easily!

Komusubi Asahiyutaka showed his speedy tsuppari attack against ozeki
Wakanohana's face.    Wakanohana resisted it well and forced him out!

Veteran Terao showed his speedy tsuppari and quick moving, but Musashimaru
didn't upset and pushed and trust Terao powerfully and finally Musashi
pushed him out!

Young hope Tosanoumi and ozeki candidate Takatoriki showed thier spititful
tsuppari exchange.   When Takatoriki tried to pushed Tosa out, Tosa narrowly
twisted Takatori's head and threw him down!   Good sumo!

5-1 : Akebono, Musashimaru, Kaio, Kotonishiki, Tamakasuga,
      Asanowaka, Tchiazuma

I'll post the tomorrow's full pairings(Day 7) soon.
