Kyokai joint keiko sessions- day 2

[Moti Dichne]

Day 2 of the joint: Komusubi Houshouryuu had 17 bouts today, the most among the 16 participants. He faced the likes of Tobizaru and was 10-7. "My body was moving better than yesterday and I think I have been able to do good keiko at this joint session. I'm really grateful to be able to train with other sekitori as there is no degeiko at the moment. It's the only way for me to see how I measure up to them. I wanted to do more.. I want to increase the numbers tomorrow and the day after," he said. Last basho was his first as a Sanyaku Was it different? "Totally different. All the guys are really strong, so I need to gambarize in order not to lose. Uncle Asa? He tells me to properly do my sumo. He always has my back so I really want to gambarize and get through the basho without injury!" he summed.
