The yokozuna then grabbed his opponent's belt with both hands before driving him off the dohyo and to his sixth loss at Aichi Prefectural Gymnasium. Hakuho's head-to-head with his countryman now stands at 2-0.Hakuho, who has a record 38 career titles, will seek to tie Kaio's mark on Wednesday when he meets sekiwake Mitakeumi, against whom he has a 4-1 record. Mitakeumi (7-3) on Tuesday pulled down top maegashira Shodai (3-7) with an underarm throw.Bulgarian eighth-ranked maegashira Aoiyama remains on the heels of Hakuho at 9-1 after powerfully thrusting out No. 10 Chiyotairyu (7-3).Three others -- ozeki Takayasu, No. 6 maegashira Onosho and 13th-ranked Takarafuji -- beat their opponents to stay two wins behind Hakuho.Takayasu and No. 4 maegashira Ura (6-4), who upset yokozuna Harumafuji (7-3) on Monday, put on what was perhaps the day's most entertaining bout in their first career meeting.The ozeki, standing 1.86 meters tall, easily fended off the 1.74-meter Ura's charges, repeatedly shoving him away by some distance before twirling him off with a neck throw with his right arm.Onosho defeated ninth-ranked Tokushoryu (3-7), while Takarafuji beat Georgian No. 16 Gagamaru (3-7) with a twisting overarm throw.In the day's last match, Harumafuji bulldozed fellow Mongolian Tamawashi (5-5) to the edge of the ring, prompting the sekiwake to step outside.Swami</blockquote>
