Would've pissed me off if it was a hanka because I do not think that is a way to win. I don't think it was because Harumafuji went for a belt grip and did not just move to the side. Unexpected win, but good job.

Man, Asa seems really pissed.. hehehe.. that Harumafuji looks like some Ama older brother. They have lookalike faces (or so it seems to me).

Harumafuji is Ama - he just got a new name when he became an ozeki. :)

how come they r turning their cushions? any meaning?

Believe that its just tradition for when a yokozuna loses.

yeah - it's just an unspoken ritual whenever a yokozuna loses. One tournament venue has started using new cushions that are tied together to avoid them getting thrown.

lol thanks for the info =)

Yeah, if it were a henka he wouldn't have gone for a belt grab...I don't think the slap to the left helped for Asa either.
I think Harumafuji might get an award for technique this basho, what with the one footed pivot earlier in the tournament and now this. Think that is possible or likely?

unfortunately at the ozeki rank, you can't get the special prizes - i guess they feel you're already special if you're an ozeki.

It would have ended faster if it was a sidestep. Haru just went for the side of Asa to get a good grip.
