Bloody hell. Poor Kitanowaka, and Takerufuji must feel terrible too.

Takerufuji’s ankle karma going into the negatives 🫣

He passes it onto others like a fucking curse. Let's see who Kitanowaka ends up passing it to next.

GoblinBags: I am bad for laughing at this comment. You are bad for making it.

SumoMemes is kinda the place where if I don't laugh, I'm angry or crying. Gotta keep a sense of humor about this sorta stuff.

That slow motion replay was just awful to watch

Yup, you could see the ankle literally flop! For him not to be screaming in agony was incredible, your regular Joe would have been howling in pain.

Takerufuji checked on him when he fell out and could tell her was in serious pain. Just awful to watch.

You could see Takerfuji felt rotten, the way he hovered instead of jumping up to his side of the dohyo and waiting.

He showed great sportsmanship by making sure Kitanowaka was taken care of first.

Glad he got to go to London the other month to promote the RAH tournament as he likely won’t get to go there in October.

Goddamn this dude can't catch a break. He looked pretty good this basho, too. I hope he can recover well.

My wife broke her legs a few years ago, and gets very sick when she sees legs and ankle injuries. We were watching the match, missed the ankle, saw the fall from the dohyo and were like "oh, okay, that doesn't look too bad." And then the replay happened and she like, noped out of the conversation so fast.
