Fukuoka Day15 29-Nov-2009 Asashōryū Vs. Hakuhō 朝青龍 Vs. 白鵬 Kyushu Basho

[Gagarin40i4]

Why at 5:30 people appalud?

[m4rkyboy]

They remind me of mountain gorillas in their posturings.

Hakuhō Shō is easily going to down as one of the greatest sumo ever in history

前の場所の決定戦は、白鵬が受けきれないぐらい朝青龍が先に先に­攻めて朝青龍が勝った。

hakuho is way better than asashoryu.....don't like asa's cos his cocky......hakuho is a more a down to earth kinda guy....period

[mhdozier]

I think the way Asashoryu got pushed out of sumo was bad. The whole football game thing was not his fault--just a PR fiasco. There's a big difference in the strain on ones knees between kicking around a ball and trying to toss sumos for 15 days. But I bet Asashoryu is a lot happier in retirement.

[shevegen]

5 years IS a lot younger.

Also I think Asashōryū should focus more on his old strategy - right now he seems a bit too slow. Perhaps lose around 4 kg and focus on speed - he clearly has a hard time with Hakuhō, Hakuhō seems physically stronger.

Then Sumo is the sport with the largest size of players playing in the world.

立ち合い、先手は朝青龍が取ったが、その後の攻めが遅い。白鵬は­不利な体勢から徐徐に自分十分の形に持っていった。ここが今の白­鵬の強さ。

ある意味名勝負。

[G3N3]

why does he tap him on his back at 6:53 right before he throws him.

[Civsuccess2]

Hakuho is clearly bigger. Asa got pushed around.

Thank you very much for all these high quality sumo videos. Really appreciate. Hope we can see your uploads in January. :)

[Arcalimon230587]

thank you for the upload, but i feel very sad for asa...

[kasranov]

Asashoryu got owned...

[MrKaz106]

Now, Hakuho beat Asa all 6 times in honwari. That should show something.... The change of guard.

[yalguunburen]

Hakuho is:

1. Bigger

2. Younger

3. Relatively unijuried

4. His father was better wrestler than Asa's father
