Day 6: Judging Chief Urakaze Halts a Makushita Bout: 'You're Not Putting Your Hands Down at All!'
A Day 6 makushita bout between Makushita 55 Tokitenran (Tokitsukaze) and Makushita 57 Kazeeidai (Oshiogawa) was stopped right after the tachi-ai when judging chief Urakaze (ex-maegashira Shikishima), seated in front of the dohyo, repeatedly shouted 'Wait!' The gyoji, Shikimori Shoichiro, had urged them to put their hands down, but Urakaze told Kazeeidai sharply, 'You're not putting your hands down at all! Put them down properly!' and Kazeeidai nodded. The second tachi-ai counted, and Tokitenran pushed him out quickly by oshidashi to go 3-0; Kazeeidai is 2-1. Viewers wrote 'Serious coaching' and 'He's furious' (ABEMA TIMES).
