Grand Sumo Breakdown

Feb 26, 2020

Join Ryan and Jake for a review of Haru's (or Natsu's?) wonky banzuke. This banzuke has a yokozuna-ozeki AND a maegashira 18, two things that haven't happened in decades. Leave us your thoughts on Twitter/Instagram/Facebook/Whatever or leave us a message at 805-613-SUMO (7866).

Due to his demotion and retirement in January, we figured it was a good time to cover sumo "Hall-of-Famer" and Ryan's all-time favorite rikishi, Goeido Gotaro. Feel free to tell Ryan how much you love Goeido on our social media or leave us a voice mail at 805-613-SUMO (7866)

As a companion to last week's results post, check out our discussion with the whole team. As mentioned before, we plan to keep an eye on how these results change over time with future polls, probably once each summer and once each winter.

The January basho is over, so it's time to predict what the rankings will look like in March. Ryan and Jake discuss the mysterious (and overblown) yokozuna-ozeki rank, how high Tokushoryu will climb up the banzuke, and the first appearance of the M18 rank in quite some time.
