Kyokukaiyu ends up very deep inside on Onokatsu and lifts him up and out.
Arashifuji's henka does nothing but he follows up with tsuppari that puts Tamawashi out.
Protracted hand fight battle between Toshinofuji and Asahakuryu who breaks it with a charge that ends with a protracted belt grip stalemate. Eventually Asa gets the force out.
Decent tachiai for Oho but Oshoma hits high and low with a slap down then force out then finally completes an overarm throw.
Good tachiai but Nishikifuji gets inside Shishi and his right overarm throw staggers the Ukranian, who survives the follow up pushing and locks up an inside left of his own. Nishi one foot balances his way out of that throw and slips Shishi by to chuck him down and out of the ring before he hits the dirt himself.
Strong tsuppari off the lines from both Kinbozan and Kotoshoho, who's taken to the tawara and shoved out with Kinbo barely keeping from stepping out from his own thrust momentum.
Hiradoumi works Wakamotoharu to the bales but WMH slips him by and Hira goes down almost face first.
After some slaps Takerufuji tries an overarm throw but Fujiryoga drives him back and Take's next throw is too little too late as he's crushed out.
Yoshinofuji reverses Churanoumi's drive at the bales and finishes with yorikiri.
Fujinokawa with a rare slow tachiai as he tries to sidle right and grab a leg but Atamifuji uses a left overhook to stand Fuji up and muscle him out.
Aonishiki's deadly inside left defeats Hakunofuji.
Kirishima and Asanoyama end up with a belt stalemate until Kiri creates space off Asa's drive and gets a pull down that positions him for a yorikiri.
Solid tachiai from both men but Kotozakura works Takayasu out.
Fujiseiun works Hoshoryu back and out. Looks like he hasn't fully recovered from his right knee injury from back in July.
Ura tries ducking under Onosato off the lines but the yokozuna is having none of it and pulls him down hard to the clay.
