number9 0 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 You're a teacher?! Be a pussy and feign the opening "tachiai", move to the side and slap him down (if you can), that's the only chance you got, unless you're an amateur wrestler or something Link to post Share on other sites
farquah 0 Posted December 13, 2005 Author Share Posted December 13, 2005 debating tactics now, was thinking of the sidestep job "tachiai" or try and use my rugby and bosh into him, am about 100kgs so maybe a similar match weight wise. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Side step him, grab his chonmage, and kick him in the nuts. Link to post Share on other sites

bushpig 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Well, they certainly do slap like a girl, so why not go the extra step Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 farquah, what if that retired ozeki turns out to be Konishiki, who was around 260 kg in his prime??!!? Link to post Share on other sites
ncorrenti 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 How much do you weigh farquah? Link to post Share on other sites
farquah 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 Just found out the ozeki is Terano, and he is about the same weight as I am 100kgs but the added advantage of a lifetime practice under his belt!! Very bizzare but just went to local Gudon place around the corner and bumped into a family I know. Turned out the father was a Sumo referee!!!! Told him about the bout tomorrow and he proceeded to take me out in the parking lot and teach me the basics of Sumo much to the amusement of the other clientelle at restaurant!!!!

ncorrenti 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Haha that's awesome. At least you're fairly matched in terms of weight. I still reckon you should use biting/scratching as a backup. Good luck! Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 terano?? Man, he was good. He was a little dude who could match it with the big boys. AND he was always slimish anyway so shouldn't have lost much of the advantage he always had. Good luck. Get some pics for us. Link to post Share on other sites

bushpig 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 hehehe, yeah sorry! Reading back over that it sounds a little pessimistic eh! I stand by my first suggestion: sid-step, chonmage, kintama! Link to post Share on other sites
number9 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Terao was never Ozeki, I always cheered for him, and he seems like a real nice and intelligent guy. Let us know how it goes eh. Link to post Share on other sites
nzlegend 1 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 wow, Terao while retired is still in top shape. he is an Oyakata (boss of a sumo stable) and he gets in the ring every day and trains hands on. Sorry Farqhuar its not some rusty dude that you are getting, you are getting a wiley veteran in good physical condition. Here is my take. Terao's main style was oshi sumo - thrusting, he flailed his arms like a windmill at the torso and head of his opponent, he wasnt big on yotsu sumo - that is grabbing the mawashi (belt) of the opponent. Your best bet is to get in really close and as quickly as you can to his body, if you stay back at arms length you will have no show at all. You are rugby player right? go for a ball and all style tackle, coming in low dont stand up to quick, try to surprise him and get in as close as you can and try to get your hands on his mawashi ( I assume you will wearing one) if by miracle you get in this position, then march him backwards or pick him up and dump him like a rugby tackle, since you are 100kg and probably taller than him and a lot younger its not to immpossible to think it happen. good luck. http://www.banzuke.com/~movies/hatsu2000/kyoshu_terao.asf http://www.banzuke.com/~movies/hatsu2000/shiki_terao.rm http://www.banzuke.com/~movies/hatsu2000/terao_haman.rm http://www.banzuke.com/~movies/hatsu2000/terao_akino.rm http://www.banzuke.com/~movies/hatsu2000/terao_takawaka.rm http://www.banzuke.com/~movies/hatsu2000/terao_tokitsu.rm http://www.banzuke.com/~movies/hatsu2000/terao_oikari.rm here are vids from 2000. he is the little dude in the red mawashi, see how if he flails his arms he is hard to contain, but the guys in that video who got his belt and got in close, had him, not always as he was so damn fast.

Ocean11 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Try some scrum psychology on him. Just before the tachiai, mutter 'okama' under your breath. He probably isn't used to being called that. Link to post Share on other sites
slow 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Terao is so cool! Even if you can't get money, you should show honor to wrestle against him. You are so lucky! Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 > you should show honor to wrestle against him. That's exactly why scrum psychology will work. Before you get down for the tachiai, make sure you have his attention then purse your lips and slide your little finger into your mouth. You'll soon be a million yen richer.
