I'm more cute than her.

That was an incredible flip. That was a fantastic match. Great job by Asa staying in there and getting the win, but good job for Kotooshu putting up a battle like that. Very impressed with that match. I haven't seen a whole lot of GREAT matches this basho, but that one was GREAT! I can't wait to see Asa vs. Harumafuji and Asa vs. Hakuho. On a side note, that one chick at 3:23 was pretty damn happy at that win. She has got to be in love with Asa. LOL! (I did see the other comments too)

OH MY GOD...After I think Ive seen the most awesome match, I see Asashoryu flip a dude taller and bigger than him. Amazing.

[daridaist]

3:23 that girl behind Hakuho is probably in love with asashoryu lol

[JasonsinJapan]

there have been some cute girls ringside this basho, which is nice, since it's usually old men :)

Asashoryu has amazing strength. Great win. Asashoryu for evr!!!

[MediaMaster9000]

Man, Asashoryu moves so fast right there at the end. Really impressive.

[42317]

Awesome!

One of the best matches I have ever seen.

(What did the commentator call it?

I thought that move was a koshi-nage, i.e. hip throw, I seem to remember that from my Jûdô days)

Thanks for sharing!

[JasonsinJapan]

shitatte nage? shitate nage? I couldn't really hear it either...

[42317]

I must miss some syllable here... worked myself through Japanese throwing techniques but couldn't find anything that sounds familiar... and by searching news articles which might offer descriptions in better detail I spoiled myself about who won the tournament about 40 minutes ago before you could upload the final bout... *cry*

[stevebrown586]

That was crazy! Lol. I love it!!! And Jason....I'm excited too. Haha!

[tomson600]

What a great Basho this is becoming.

[nyguitar83]

What a good match....I was really hoping Kotooshu would win though :( it was close a few times but ...at least it was a good move that finished it off not a lame quick match haha.

[skitplace]
