DAY 4 REVIEW

The yokozuna and an ozeki both went down, leaving Kotozakura as the only unbeaten man. Onosato was thrust down by Takayasu in the final bout for his first loss — a kinboshi for Takayasu, who beat Kirishima the day before and has now toppled the top two on consecutive days. Aonishiki was pushed out by new komusubi Hakunofuji for his first loss and Hakunofuji's first win. Kotozakura threw Gonoyama for 4-0, alone at the top. Kirishima forced out Kotoeiho and Atamifuji forced down Fujiryoga, so both promotion candidates are 3-1. New sekiwake Fujinokawa was pushed out by Kotoshoho, Kotoshoho's first win, and is 2-2; komusubi Daieisho thrust down Yoshinofuji for his first win, leaving Yoshinofuji 0-4. Debutant Kotobukinofuji threw Asakoryu, having beaten his brother Asasuiryu the day before, and is 3-1 after starting 0-2. In juryo Mitakeumi and Tamawashi both won for the first time. Sixteen men are 3-1, among them Onosato, Aonishiki, Kirishima and Atamifuji.

Win % = Glicko-2 expected score from each wrestler's latest rating. Shown for Juryo and above only — lower divisions have provisional ratings, so their predictions are unreliable. Bouts listed in fight order (main event last). Start times (~H:MM) are rough estimates based on the standard daily schedule and may shift with the day's pace. Green/red ± figures show the rating change from that bout — the bigger the upset, the bigger the number (provisional during the basho; new wrestlers can swing widely while their rating settles).
