Exciting second half coming up. Looking at the slate the most even bout should be Hakuoho against Hoshoryu!

I’ve been an avid fan of sumo for a couple of years now. I’m so excited for all the newcomers tonight; especially getting to see the excitement of Ura for the first time.

There'll be a lot of people very happy you're streaming this tournament (and running a live chat) - there's a huge sumo following in the UK. I'll be there on the final day to see Hoshoryu win the yusho! Also hoping veterans Takayasu and Tamawashi get kachikoshi.
