Wajima vs. Takanohana : Aki 1972

[venpen]

両者の筋肉が盛り上がってるのが肉眼で確認できる。

格好いい。

Lived in Japan in '72 and went to many Sumo tournaments. Takanohana was always my favorite. Generally smaller than most guys he fought, but I believe he made it to Ozeki. Died young of cancer. Great fighter. Wajima was a beast though.

Now this is sumo!!!

[keiko1957]

Souda souda This is the sumo da! Today's aumo is not sumo, they only tray to do tricks. Shame Shame.

腰が上下に盛んに動いている。

今の力士にこんな動きがあるか？

水入りのある相撲・・・昔は多くて見ごたえがあったなぁ・・・。­

[kshiga]

懐かしい。今見ても最高！　輪島と貴ノ花はいつも釣り合いになってましたね。

[galboabueno]

すげえつり合い！　ところで最近決まり手で「つり出し」なんて見なくなりましたよね­え。

[anotherelvis]

They look very thin compared to modern sumo wrestlers.

[vivio5141]

これが相撲です！最近の肥えてばかりの力士はもう一度こういう相­撲を見てほしい！

[vivio5141]

最高！こういうのが相撲でしょ！

[furucan]

ただ素晴らしいの一言。

[ShinjiOh]

I love Wajima. His matches are always so long and intense.

[yowanotukikage]

これが相撲なんだなぁ

[heiankyoalien]

The Crown Prince family has come.
