The 32-year-old Japanese is undoubtedly the most eclectic rikishi and the one who has the wider variety of solutions to achieve win. Sometimes having a big range of possibilities can be counterproductive because too much choice, in such a short sumo match, can lead to indecision; but when everything goes right the show is guaranteed. On day 11 of the Natsu Basho, Ura obtains just the 3rd victory of his tournament but he does it with one of those moves that we will see again and again. For the 4th time in his career, the second against Takayasu, he uses the tsutaezori (under arm forward body drop) at the end of a very heated challenge made of continuous slaps and pushes, with the former Ozeki trying to hit the opponent in the back of the head, and Ura able to dodge all the opponent's attacks while maintaining a low posture. And it was thanks to it that he found himself wrapped around Takayasu underneath him; with a left step he let his body slide behind him and together they fell to the ground, with the small but substantial difference that Ura's body was on top of Takayasu's. The latter took his ninth defeat of the tournament and sadly left the dohyo, while Ura took all the deserved applause. #italianozeki #大相撲 #sumo #相撲 #力士 #お相撲さん #grandsumo #sumoday #sumowrestling #5月場所 #五月場所 #夏場所 #natsubasho #宇良 #高安
