2008年春場所＆朝青龍VS白鵬 Asashoryu wins 2008 March Sumo Tournament

Since I am a fan of Asashoryu I beg for forgiveness to Hakuho's fans because I edited this video as a fan of Asashoryu, but I think to put another video with all Hakuho's and Asashoryu's matches

With athletes as mighty as Asashoryu, it is a surprise that Japanese don't do better at the Rugby world cup! That guy would make a sick prop.

@Myrmidon540

The reason is that Asashoryu is a Mongolian, he is not Japanese. Not only, unfortunately the Japanese didn't like Asashoryu as they prefer slow and diligent fighters. At least, this is what the media say.

Many thanks for posting this. I've only recently got back into sumo after not being able to watch it for many years (Eurosport seem to have dropped English coverage in the UK). I've recently been watching the July '09 basho. Its a pity Asashoryu is injured, becuase he's not at his best. But here, he looks like a rabid animal - great stuff!

[yanello]

Happy you enjoyed! Let's hope Asashoryu will be in great shape next September!

The best yokozuna ever, Asashoryu simply the best!!

@yanello

Exactly but its technique they don't understand it well

and they are not that fast the technique is what makes the

difference if the gokudō weren't controlling the sport then

I would go into it.....

great post though!

Some say it's easier being sumo. I say it's trash. Sumo Wrestlers are strong, but they couldn't run at top speed. Not that I'm offending any of these top athletes.

@Myrmidon540 How about Asa as an NFL lineman? You need a hole to run through, follow me.

Loved his response to the interviewer's question after the final match. And I quote, "HMMM!"

こんとき白鵬風邪ひいてたらしいね。

だから、はやく決着つけたかったみたいだね。

そしたらあんな結果に・・・。
