i'm confused. I thought Aonishiki won. Onosato was already down on his left knee before A* touched the ground.

I've started following sumo this summer after stumbling on a post from this community. I need more information about this

I honestly don't think this image is telling. There's a reason many fans consider the outcome controversial or at least worthy of mono-ii.

And while I understand your perspective about not wanting spoilers, I would prefer no such rules. The communities here are small, and a no spoiler rule basically stops any specific discussion apart from in the day topics.

    And I'm not hear to tell anyone how this sub is run, only that if there are spoilers, I will have to block it, which would suck for me too. I can see why people wouldn't want them.

    And the image shows the final few milliseconds of the match, so it seems pretty spoilery to me....

    Fair enough, obviously I will follow whatever rules are in place. I just want to also offer the viewpoint that a ban on spoilers is self evident.

    When seeing it live I personally believed aonishki had won exactly because of that image, he snapped Onosato down while jumping.
