Sumo: Yokozuna Onosato slumps to 0-2 with upset loss to Fujinokawa

NAGOYA - Grand champion Onosato suffered his second straight defeat to start the Nagoya Grand Sumo Tournament on Monday, losing to tricky No. 1 maegashira Fujinokawa by thrust down.

Coming off an upset loss to komusubi Yoshinofuji, five-time Emperor's Cup winner Onosato dropped to 0-2 courtesy of the fast-moving Fujinokawa (1-1), winner of their previous meeting in March, who withstood the injury-affected yokozuna's strong initial charge before executing the devastating reversal.
