Day 6: Asasuiryu Evens His Record and Eyes Local Hero Arashifuji: 'There'll Probably Be Kensho Too'
West Maegashira 13 Asasuiryu, 26 (Takasago), forced out East Maegashira 17 Daiseizan, 26 (Arashio), on Day 6 to even his record at 3-3. He got his left arm in, grabbed the front of the mawashi with his right, took a grip with his left too, raised Daiseizan up and drove him out. 'I was able to do it without rushing. 2-4 and 3-3 are different. It's big,' he said. On Day 7 he meets Fukuoka's Arashifuji, who is 5-1: 'I want to win tomorrow. He's the local guy, and there'll probably be kensho money too,' he said with a slight smile (Nikkan Sports).
