Newly promoted ozeki Tochinoshin rolled to another victory on Monday, the second day of the Nagoya Grand Sumo Tournament.
Yokozuna duo Hakuho and Kakuryu also remained unbeaten at the 15-day meet at Dolphins Arena.
Tochinoshin (2-0), who aims to become the first wrestler since Hakuho in 2006 to win his first tournament as an ozeki, easily dispatched Chiyonokuni (1-1). The No. 2 maegashira slapped Tochinoshin's face, but Tochinoshin remained calm and shoved his opponent out of the ring.
