10:07 I cried so much seeing Hoshoryu cry. He’s usually so stoic. It was so refreshing to see him break down just a little bit. Much deserved. What a champion you are.
I've been watching him since he was in Makushita and you could see he had something special. I'm happy for him and excited to see how powerful he can become!!
Agree, he is the first rikishi I watched every professional bout of. When I heard asashoryu's nephew turned pro I just had to follow him from the very beginning in division 6. You could already see there that he will go very far. From the active rikishi is he by favorite.
@@Fuu_Sho Same here man! When I heard Asashoryu's nephew was born I just had to follow every move he made in life. I was there for his first bite of solid food, first steps he took, fist word etc. Even saw his first fight in pre-school, and boy could you tell he had inherited the champion gene!
Wow! His technique is SO solid. It's very refreshing to see a Rikishi not only use brute force and muscle, but textbook maneuvers as well. That was a treat.
Agreed! Apparently he did jujitsu before sumo. It’s amazing to see what a well rounded rikishi he is because of it. You never know what he’s going to do. That Asanoyama is a great example, even seeing it again for the second time in this video it caught me off guard.
@@countstoneula That was the exact moment I went, ' Let's see how this plays out. Could be become very interesting.' His fights were awesome in this tournament.
Ever since his match against... (I forget, lol) whoever last year where he PULLED HIS ARM AWAY from rocketing toward the ground, hitting his face on the GD dohyo. It went to a torinaoshi, and he hip tossed the opposition just like he did to Asanoyama. Ever since then, I've been a hardcore fan of Golden Boy. The man means business!!!
@@bp6475 Even though I am a big Hakuho fan, what you said is true. Arguably a bit of luck and good fortune contributed to the G.O.A.T.'s incredible winning stats.
Congrats to Hoshoryu on the win and promotion to Ozeki! He's been a long time favorite of mine. I love his intensity and drive. You can tell that he puts everything into each match. It was moving to see his emotions come out after the playoff victory. Very strong fighting spirit. I hope he will continue onto many championships and go on a Yokozuna run in 2024!
What a tournament for Hoshoryu! All his bouts were super exciting. His wins were super convincing, and he won against big names. Well deserved promotion! I hope we can see him go even further!
Obviously, he has genes that will help him to win - He is related to Asashoryu whose father is a famous Mongolian wrestler - Outstanding Elephant - his title.
When i first saw this man, his face really resemble sumo athlete in the old scripture of sumo. Well we can say he will become the next face of Sumo world..
Как только Хошорю появился в высшем дивизионе, я сказал, что это будущий Великий Чемпион!!! Сегодня ему нет равных по технике и по красоте ведения борьбы, желаю дальнейших успехов!!!
May I suggest an ongoing series about sumo's various outliers? Wrestlers that were either notable for their sheer size, or wrestlers that went against the traditional conventions of what makes a successful rikishi and how they overcame said obstacles. Absolute units like Konishiki who fought their way to ozeki and the challenges he faced being the first foreigner to achieve the rank, or smaller rikishi like Takanoyama (who got me into sumo) or more recently Enho. Sumo is a sport rooted in such tradition and heritage with such an emphasis being put on stringent uniform training, which makes it all the more intriguing when outliers appear. It would be neat to see them highlighted in some way.
EverEver since his match against... (I forget, lol) whoever last year where he PULLED HIS ARM AWAY from rocketing toward the ground, hitting his face on the GD dohyo. It went to a torinaoshi, and he hip tossed the opposition just like he did to Asanoyama. Ever since then, I've been a hardcore fan of Golden Boy. The man means business!!!
Looks like a younger Asashoryu (both Mongolian) but better lookin. Its a very high bar but who knows, the new Mongolian sensation has the right bloodline and skills to reach Yokozuna one day. Show uncle Asashoryu that the tradition of winning and representing the Mongolian sumo scene for future generations.
He has improved leaps n bounds in the last 3 basho if nit the past one year. He will go a long way if he keeps working hard n also control his temperament 😊
Hoshoryu zeki has such a cute smile! He looks so happy, and that makes me happy, too. I can tell how much he loves Sumo and he works so hard to get better. I appreciate that effort so much. I really can’t wait for the September tournament!!! ❤ Thank you for the video, Hiro! 😃
@@joannaedwards6325 It's so wonderful how much fans of sumo can get into the action. It's awesome that there's no drama, no arguing, just fans coming together and appreciating the sport. We all have our favorites and don't look down on another for having a different opinion.
I can't believe i missed a complete basho. Hoshoryu i didn't like at first, but on his own merit and improvement, hes won my respect. CONGRATULATIONS HOSHORYU!!!!!
Hoshoryu needs a little more aggression, speed and meat on him to get his bro’s level but he’s got everything it takes to be a great Yokozuna of the next decade!!
@dinitis Hakuho at 24 was a Dai Yokozuna with 12 yusho victories. I love your optimism for Hoshoryu, I'm a big fan of his. But there will only be 1 Hakuho in our lifetime, and perhaps of all time.
Nattosumo usually uploads amazing recaps but his channel always gets down because of copyright claims by the JSA, so fellas, if you want to get views and more exposure just hire the guy!
Just like everything in Sumo, people tend to get into it very very young, and the gyojis join and are part of a stable just the same as the wrestlers and are ranked. Foreigners move to Japan to be sumo wrestlers, but I don't think many are interested in moving to Japan at an early age and starting from the bottom to be a gyoji, nor do people get scouted by coaches to become gyoji either. I don't really think there is much appeal in moving to Japan as a teenager to try to be a gyoji, there also isn't that many of them. Stables have an average of one gyoji, some have a couple and some have none.
I love Hoshoryu's style of sumo and I hope he has great success, but the replays clearly show that he touched the ground before Tobizaru on the first day. If the match had been awarded accurately, Hoshoryu wouldn't have been eligible for a playoff against Hokutofuji and he wouldn't have had enough wins to make Ozeki. I hope he performs well in the next basho and shows that he just got the promotion a little early. It still sucks for Hokutofuji to have his rightful championship stolen from him by a bad call, though.
This is wrong; judges correctly determined that Tobizaru was in an unrecoverable position before Hoshoryu's fingernail hit the clay. Would be ridiculous to lose a match that way. Good thing the judges were on their game.
I never liked Hoshoryu - I thought he came across as overly agressive and looked like he had a bad temper. But I have to admit he has great skill, stability and strength. I hope he makes it to Yokozuna!
Honestly, at first i thought the same. but i think hes just a focused and intense guy in the ring. All the times i see him outside the Dohyo he seems like a teddy bear
I didn't like his attitude at first either but now I actually enjoy his swagger. It helps that he has the skill to back it up and that he is all smiles when not competing. Can't really blame someone for being aggressive in a combat sport...
I'm glad Hoshoryu finally won a tournament. He has been very consistent and deserved the promotion as well.
Another great Mongolian wrestler is the making and Hoshoryu is his name.🏆👏
10:07 I cried so much seeing Hoshoryu cry. He’s usually so stoic. It was so refreshing to see him break down just a little bit. Much deserved. What a champion you are.
Been watching Hoshoryu for a whle now. Really glad to see him make it to the rank of Ozeki. Maybe this time next year we can hope he can be Yokozuna.
The way he was just ready for wakamotoharus henka and adjusted on the spot is so masterful
Or his balance against Hiradoumi
Yes, he's definitely not the guy to pull a henka on. I remember seeing others try but it never ended well for them 😅
Hoshoryu has a big boots to fill but hey , they fit him perfecly👌
Golden boy ❤
I've been watching him since he was in Makushita and you could see he had something special. I'm happy for him and excited to see how powerful he can become!!

Judo, lol. It's his implementation of MFckin Judo to his Sumo, that gives him that edge! All hail the age of GOLDEN BOY!

My favorite bout was when he made Abi kiss the clay wth his butt. Hooray!!!!
He threw Asanoyama like a sack of potatoes. A thing of beauty.

Are you married beautiful woman?
He has a great smile too!😊
Calling it now...Hoshoryu will be the next Yokozuna
Before Asanoyama? Maybe.
Wow, sumo is getting incredibly exciting with so many young prospects. Was worried after Hakuho retirement, the greatest sports man alive.
No that's Conor McGregor
@@sam7324
Dream on foo.
They took away Asashoryu too early he would have stopped Hakuho. Fate was on Hakuho's side. He's still great though.
@@bp6475

followed hoshoryu for many bashos now, so happy to see him become ozeki. Finally!
🎉 incredible 👏. I truly appreciate his dynamic sumo and ferocious fighting spirit ❤️ .
If I may add I think he has a heck of a smile to boot.
Out of the ring when he is smiling and his eyes are twinkling he could light up a city. Sooo handsome! 💋😊!!
He always comes back better when he gets knocked down. It's been a thrill to watch him improve over the past couple years.
What a tournament for Hoshoryu! All his bouts were super exciting. His wins were super convincing, and he won against big names. Well deserved promotion! I hope we can see him go even further!
Now for Hakuoho to catch up with him.
That would be something else if Hoshoryu and Hakuoho both made YZ and had a years long rivalry.
Отличный спортсмен! Желаю ему новых побед и удачи в высшем дивизионе!
Hakuhos student facing Asashoryus great nephew in a 3 way play off is literally something out of an anime
A star finally rises to shine more brightly. So very pleased he's finally made the Ozeki rank. He's going all the way to the top!
I adore him and i hope that he will get all the great things he deserves❤❤❤
He's Awesome and very skilled ozeki
Obviously, he has genes that will help him to win - He is related to Asashoryu whose father is a famous Mongolian wrestler - Outstanding Elephant - his title.
Congrats Hoshoryu
Love Hoshoryu! So happy for him.
When i first saw this man, his face really resemble sumo athlete in the old scripture of sumo. Well we can say he will become the next face of Sumo world..
He deserves it! Well done and we look forward to watching him! ❤
He's been my favorite since I first started watching Sumo 3 or 4 years ago. Hope he can reach the top of the mountain.

aw man I was rooting for my boy Hokutofuji, however congrats to Hoshoryu
I really thought he had the deities on his side....hopefully he keeps this up.

Show uncle Asashoryu that the tradition of winning and representing the Mongolian sumo scene for future generations.
hoshoryu was finally allowed to smile
In the dohyo, Hoshoryu seems scary and intimidating, but behind the scenes he seems humble and gentle
That Kirishima match was great. The match between the Ozeki who got there last basho vs the brand new one is exactly how it should be.
Great content!
Do a piece on hokotufuji!!
Hoshoryu will be our next yokozuna. Then Asanoyama, as long as his bicep heals.
no Kirishima??because he will do it
@@quackkuryu4680 My only doubt with Kirishima is his back....other than that, he is more than capable to make yokozuna.
I just came across this channel, and it is awesome. It's helping me learn about sumo wrestling from Australia
Thank you so much for this channel. You make learning Sumo so much easier.
He has improved leaps n bounds in the last 3 basho if nit the past one year. He will go a long way if he keeps working hard n also control his temperament 😊
Amazing. Congratulations

Hâte d’être en septembre pour voir ce nouvel ozeki et revoir Takakeisho ♥️
I love his face at 10:00 he derserves it!!
Hoshoryu (and Ura) my favorites. Their matches are always exciting to watch.
Asashoryuu's nephew with Harumafuji's sumo style! 🔥🔥🔥
He deserved it for a long time , congrats !
I dont know why. But i always forget Hoshoryu, Meisei and Akua are in the same stable and i always get surprised everytime im reminded of that fact.
My guy. Let's see how it goes in September.
He's my favorite Rikishi
Congrats to Hoshoryu! Just need Wakatakakage to get promoted to Ozeki and all my favorites will be Ozeki!
HEAR! HEAR!
Happy fans ❤ dynamic sumo 🎉 ❤❤❤
какие добрые лица у этих больших ребят когда они улыбаются.
Congrats to Hoshoryu for the promotion. Though I gotta admit, I was really rooting for Hokutofuji to win the Basho.
I can't believe i missed a complete basho. Hoshoryu i didn't like at first, but on his own merit and improvement, hes won my respect.
CONGRATULATIONS HOSHORYU!!!!!
Thanks for the great broadcast. Please also turn on the original sound.
Thank you for the english Sumo broadcast. It's very informative how you explain everything. Good job! You have my subscription to your channel.
Thank you
Why is he so cute though. 😭💕
Golden Boy is now Golden Champion
Hoshoryu Tomokatsu on his way to Yokozuna!
I can’t wait to see him as Yokozuna!
Семейное значит))) Ну я рад! Молодец, он радует своими боями.
Cool 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Too bad you couldn't do an interview and heya visit. Maybe for his next yusho.
❤❤❤
Bro the voice thought I'm watching anime some anime lol 😂
That victory against bout fixer Asanoyama was such a sweet one.
Bout fixer?
wtf are you talking about?
demon face 🔥
Thats because all he had bottled up, but he seems like a pretty chilled dude.
I remember immediately thinking of Takanohana's Oni Face when I saw that look on Hoshoryu! So happy to see him doing so well!
Hoshoryu needs a little more aggression, speed and meat on him to get his bro’s level but he’s got everything it takes to be a great Yokozuna of the next decade!!
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
07:56 Asashoryu - Hakuho 😂😂😂
Good video.
I love watching the recaps. But where do I watch the matches?
Tough man
You sure he is not twins？ man… he looks identical to his uncle
Serious question, if Hoshoryu wins the next tournament, will he make Yokozuna? Considering he's now Ozeki and winning double in a row.
Likely not. The minimum requirement is two consecutive yusho *at* Ozeki level. So if he wins both September and November basho then yes.
HOSHORYU NUMBA 1
I do not see a Subscribe option.
Mongol hvntei suugaaraidaa kkk
Congratulations
Another Hakuho in the making perhaps?
@dinitis Hakuho at 24 was a Dai Yokozuna with 12 yusho victories. I love your optimism for Hoshoryu, I'm a big fan of his. But there will only be 1 Hakuho in our lifetime, and perhaps of all time.
@@SkywalkersFather171
And so it is
Congrats to Hoshoryu! But didn't he touch the ground with his hand first in the match against Tobizaru?
Hoshoryu = Ronaldo
Kirishima = Messi
I'm guessing he's only the 7th Mongolian to reach the rank
Where can I watch sumo?
I had a chance to watch the July Grand Sumo in Nagoya when streamers share their feed during the live events.
Like LeoDickinsonSumo
Twitch or UA-cam just search for streamers on the next tournament in September

Right here on YT. Chris Sumo provides basho highlights with English commentary.
hoshoryu need more muscle mass... over 10kg more
Love hoshoryu so much! But his hand defffffinitely touched the clay on day 1 ^_^
Well I’ve seen him get robbed a few times during mono ii in the past so it all washes out.
Why are there no foreigners among the gyogi?
