Kotozakura caused the throw, he should have won by Dead Body

2024-07-18 23:27:20 +0000 UTCI would have liked a redo on that one but I am not upset with the result. He did technically touch down first

2024-07-18 21:35:33 +0000 UTCThere is a booth with the replay video and another judge in that room that has access to it. He can watch the replay, and he communicates to the judges at the dohyo what he sees and then they can discuss and the head judge makes the final decision.

2024-07-18 15:15:39 +0000 UTCSo, I don't actually know the answer to this, during the mono-ii, do the judges have access to the replay? Is there a Video Assistant Referee of sorts that's communicating with them, or are they just reconstructing the action from their recollection?

2024-07-18 15:15:17 +0000 UTCAs someone who is at work and watching this video right now, I approve of your plan for work with no classes next week! Wow, close call on this match! Kotozakura's tachiai have been a little soft, but he had better control after them in his wins thus far.

2024-07-18 15:14:02 +0000 UTCThe extra camera angles that we get from the NHK coverage are really nice. I hope we can keep watching sumo this way.
