The summer jungyo arrived in Sendai today, the 11th. Yokozuna Houshouryuu,
had 13 bouts against Makuuchi rikishi Ouhou and Hakuohou going 9-4. He
impressed the crowd with spectacular sukuinages and strong pushes. He then
lent his chest to compatriot Mongolian Komusubi Oushouma . "I want to get
my body back to normal. I'm not at my best yet. I need to train and get my
slack body back in shape," he said. He reportedly fought 20 bouts during
the jungyo held in Koriyama City, Fukushima Prefecture on the 9th. On this
day, he was seen chatting with Yokozuna Oonosato and jungyo boss Sakaigawa
ringside, and revealed, "We talked about the possibility of two Yokozunae
training together on one of the tours. It hasn't been decided yet though."
He had tape around the injured big toe of his left foot, saying, "It
bothers me. It's an injury after all. I have to keep going even if it
hurts. There's no point in wailing about it endlessly -  it won't help.. "
He spoke firmly about the Aki Basho, saying, "I have to do my best for the
people who support me."
