Hokutofuji was muddling along and then pulled out with a knee injury after falling hard on Day Eight. Despite being taken to the back in the oversized wheelchair, the medical certificate said he only needed two weeks recovery. If he is back for real in Osaka, this lower rank may see him put it to quite a few people.
