Kyushu Basho 2025 Makuuchi Day 3

Kyushu Basho 2025, Day 3: The Rising Tide Welcome back to the dohyō, friends. Herbert Wimberger here for Day 3. The opening salvos are over, and the tournament's key narratives are taking shape. On Day 3, we have some phenomenal matchups that could define the first week. The main event is a clash of titans: Yokozuna Hoshoryu, coming off a strong Day 2 win, faces the man who desperately wants to return to Ozeki, Kirishima. This is a technical masterclass waiting to happen. Not to be outdone, Yokozuna Onosato (2-0) looks to continue his dominant streak against the highly skilled Wakatakakage. Meanwhile, the battle for the future is on! The undefeated new Sekiwake, Aonishiki (2-0), takes on the phenom Hakuoho in a match that could be a preview of Sanyaku battles for years to come. And Ozeki Kotozakura faces a huge test against the veteran powerhouse, Takayasu.
