[sumo] Baruto Likely Out

[Joe Kuroda]

>From Nikkan Sports:

(Baruto) cannot even do shikoss and cannot participate
in Moushiai sessions.

"I am experiencing pain. If I happen to injure the
same place, I may never able to continue so I won't
get back unless I am fully recovered. I am planning to
make the final decision by five days prior to the
start (of basho) but I will accept the demotion to
Juryo even if I need to witthdraw from whole bashos if
necessary," Baruto said.

"It means what we are trying to achieve in the final
anaylsis. There is no point in forcing it right now
and suffering a career ending injury. At the moment he
is about 50% but unless he can display 150%, I won't
let him go back. He just needs to come back again when
he falls down on the banzuke," Onoe oyakata, his
shisho said.

Baurto only took a dozen bashos to get to Makuuchi
after his dohyo debut. He is ranked at Maegashira West
13 this basho.
