13e jour du Kyushu 1989 : victoire d'Ozeki Konishiki sur Yokozuna Chiyonofuji par Tsukidashi. Konishiki prend la tête du tournoi. Deux jours plus tard, l'Ozeki remporte le premier Yusho de sa carrière en division Makuuchi.
Chiyo, was one of the all-time greats. He won the emperors cup over 30 times, and was the Babe Ruth of sumo. Konishiki wona total of 3. I was stationed in Japan in the USAF when this match took place, and I remember everyone in the Officer's club cheering Konishiki on, as he bested Chiyo, enroute to his first title. Great memories for sure.
the wolf was the sumo guy I most admired.
