[sumo] Fwd: [Sumo news] - Terunofuji out-again.

[R. Brown]

We could be looking at a yokozuna promotion with the new grand champion
having not faced another yokozuna or ozeki during his yokozuna run.  What
does that portend for his performance as a yokozuna?  How will Takakeisho
compare to even Kisenosato who won only one basho as a yokozuna?  If the
inconsistency he has shown in the past returns, it may lead to an early
retirement.
