Ryuho, 19, Picks Up His Third Win by Outlasting Ex-Sekiwake Meisei
New juryo Ryuho (Otowayama), at 19 the youngest sekitori, beat former sekiwake Meisei (Tatsunami) by yorikiri on Day 4 for his third win, Sports Hochi reports. Meisei got a left arm inside off the tachi-ai, but Ryuho moved to shake it loose, got to his favored left-hand-inside grip and drove him out. 'He's someone with long experience. I can't lose to him on energy,' he said. The Kyoto native, whose shikona comes from the Phoenix Hall of Byodoin, added, 'Fighting every day is easier for me. But first I want to get to eight wins quickly.'
