Aonishiki wins the November sumo tournament in Japan and becomes the first person from Ukraine to claim an elite-level sumo championship.

Huge, late developing news from the infirmary is that Onosato is kyujo. He was wincing in pain after yesterday’s loss. Sounds like a dislocated shoulder. That hands Hoshoryu the default victory. Ao…

大相撲九州場所14日目が22日行われ、初優勝を目指す新関脇安青錦は豊昇龍を押し出し、両横綱と3敗で並んだ。

Asanoyama (11-3) defeated Fujiryoga (12-2) as the two men battled chest-to-chest in a great migi-yotsu contest. The former Ozeki is doing what he can to make a case for promotion to the top divisio…

On Day 13, the lower division yusho are either decided outright or playoffs are determined for senshuraku. The Makushita, Sandanme and Jonokuchi yushos were decided. Jonidan will have a playoff bet…

結びの1番で勝負が決まった後にダメを押した横綱・豊昇龍（26＝立浪部屋）が審判部から注意を受けた。高安戦。激しい突っ張り合いから横綱が押し出しで下し2敗を守…

Let’s start with news from the infirmary. Leonid noted Shiden’s apparent injury in his Makushita update. It turns out Shiden is injured and has gone kyujo. Nishinoryu picked up the freebie win. Fuj…

In the first semifinal, Ryusho managed to grab the belt and overpowered Ohata with a nifty throw. In the second, Kazuma took his time against Daiyusho, being careful to avoid any mistakes, but was …

Day 11 in Kyushu. No change as far as kyujo goes. Given Yoshinofuji’s shock win yesterday, imagine what the kid could do if his right calf were at 100%! Fujiryoga defeated Kazekeno and improv…

Fujiryoga is back into the lead at 9-1 has he wrapped up Hidenoumi’s arms and drove him back over the edge for the kimedashi win. Asanoyama (7-3) took down Daiseizan, who stands at 8-2. Your Day 10…

And then there were four. As a reminder, these were the quarterfinal matchups: Ohata overcame Ieshima after a protracted struggle, finally pulling down his Sandanme opponent by the belt to win by uwatehineri. Ryusho was outweighed by over 100 pounds by Shiroma but used his mobility to gain an advantageous dohyo position and win by oshidashi. His heya-mate Daiyusho met a bit of resistance at the tachiai, but then pushed out…

News from the infirmary is that Maegashira 16 Meisei will fight tomorrow. He will take on Nishikifuji in his return. That means we will not have a Juryo visitor on Day Ten. In Juryo, Hakuyozan is the first opponent to defeat Fujiryoga as he thrust the big man backward over the bales with a powerful shove. Fujiryoga falls to 8-1, tied with Daiseizan.

Four rounds of third-division bouts have been completed, and we are left with 7 men with 4-0 records. The quarterfinals will take place on day 9, with the highest-ranked undefeated Sandanme rikishi filling out the bracket. Here are the matchups: Ohata has spent 11 years bouncing back and forth between Makushita and Sandanme, with a career-high rank of Ms31. He did beat…

Maezumo Shinjo Introductions are on Nakabi. The new recruits don borrowed kesho mawashi and climb the dohyo together, taking turns to stand for their introduction. Asahifuji is the much-hyped Isegahama recruit on the far left, then Tenshoyama, Seki and Takeda. ＜八日目の様子＞新序出世披露が行われました。一月場所の番付より掲載されます。 左より旭富士（伊勢ヶ濱）、天昇山（玉ノ井）、関（境川）、武田（中村）#sumo #相撲 #十一月場所 #九州場所 pic.twitter.com/mvBkYcHWeL — 日本相撲協会公式 (@sumokyokai) November 16, 2025 Nikkan Sports is among those calling him "the strongest recruit in history." He's basically been living and training at Isegahama-beya for four years while waiting for Terunofuji to retire, so he's been honing his craft for a good while.

Check out Leonid's update on the Makushita race. I was bummed to see Enho lose the other day but he faced a stiff challenge in Kazuma. Seihakuho could also make it to sekitori before long. No news to report on the kyujo front in either of the sekitori divisions. Fujiryoga continues to steamroll through Juryo and stands at 7-0. Shirokuma and Daiseizan chase with one loss.

Three rounds of lower-division bouts have been completed, and we are left with 14 men with 3-0 records. They'll be matched up (mostly) in rank order on days 7 and 8 to winnow the race to 7. Since Daiyusho and Ryusho both hail from the Oitekaze beya, they can't face each other, and presumably will instead fight Mineyaiba and Asonoyama…

Fujiryoga won his bout against Tsurugisho to stay undefeated and the sole leader in the second division. Tamashoho, Shirokuma, and Daiseizan chase with one loss. Fujiryoga will fight Wakanosho tomorrow as we enter the middle weekend. Asanoyama watchers will be able to see Asanoyama in prime time tomorrow as he will take on Tokihayate. Kagayaki is the Juryo visitor slated for today.

With Shirokuma’s loss to Kazekeno, Juryo rookie Fujiryoga took sole possession of the lead in Juryo by defeating Kitanowaka. If his success continues, Fujishima beya may have two new Makuuchi wrestlers in a few tournaments. Heya-mate Fujiseiun is at the top of the division and is also doing well. He could crack the barrier for Hatsu 2026. Asanoyama picked up a third win as we plot his progress back to the top division.
