Every now and then I miss some fun matches in my coverage. Today, on Day 8, I missed the Ura match and the Chiyoshoma match. My apologies.
But there is a fun YT channel that picks 5 top division matches each day to highlight and breakdown called Don Don Sumo. In his video for Day 8, he includes both the Ura match and the Chiyoshoma match, so you can check them out. I recommend his channel, especially if you're new to sumo and still figuring out all the kimarite, etc.
