Such thing has never happened in Aki Basho, 6 sumoists became leaders, two Georgians No.2^nd Maegashira Tochinoshin and No.15^th Maegashira of East Gagamaru.

Gorgadze’s next opponent is also Ozeki Kotooshu of Bulgaria. He is also competing without lose. But he has already lost 2 times with Georgian sportsman.

Tomorrow the heaviest sumoist of elite (Jugeli weighs 202 kg) will play against No.16^th Maegashira Kiokunankai.
