FANTASY HEAT
- Stud: Onosato — yusho-clinching musubi win to 12-3 - Fade: Aonishiki — lost the title bout, finishes 11-4 - Sleeper: Fujinokawa — sukuinage over Atamifuji, 11-4 plus Kanto-sho
BOUT OF THE DAY
Onosato def. Aonishiki by tsukidashi. Both entered Senshūraku at 11-3; the thrust-out decided the yusho.
