Ozeki Aonishiki, 22 (Ajigawa), beat Maegashira 3 Hakunofuji, 23 (Isegahama), with a shitatenage on Day 5 and is 3-2, bouncing back from his Day 4 loss. 'I got the mawashi first. I wanted to move first without letting him get a grip, and I was able to do that,' he said. With Atamifuji the only unbeaten man, the title race is wide open. 'It's only just begun. I'll wrestle my own way and keep getting in better shape from here' (Tokyo Sports).
