Kotooshu vs Kakuryu Day 11 Sumo Hatsu Basho January 2012

There is no shame in losing to Kakuryu. Generally speaking, Kotooshu has done well in this basho.

That looked more like judo than sumo. Poor Kotooshu.

Kakuryu made it look surprisingly easy, throwing the giant Bulgarian ozeki to the clay after getting a good belt grip. If you didn't know which of these rikishi was the ozeki you might guess Kakuryu instead of Kotooshu.
