There is growth in the master of throwing "sleeping technique" Kenichiro Bunda Wrestling September 17 16:16

World wrestling championship. In the men's Greco-Roman style 60km class, Kenichiro Bunda's decision to represent the Tokyo Olympics was due not only to the throwing technique said to be “genius” but also to the “sleeping technique”. The

Bunda's greatest character is the throwing technique centered on “sleigh throwing”. Many wrestling officials agree that the sense of throwing with a soft body that is said to be “like a cat” is “the best in the world”.

However, after becoming world champion in 2017, the throwing technique became wary of many rivals. Rio de Janeiro Olympic silver medalist Shinobu Ota, who was the biggest rival, thoroughly sealed the “sleigh throw” and defeated Ms. Bunda in the all-Japan championship. Ms. Bunda's specialty skills became known to overseas players, and the skills were no longer as easy as before.

Under these circumstances, Ms. Bunda has been working on strengthening sleeping skills for the past two years in order to become the world's best again, thinking that "the key to the fighting of sleeping skills is the key if you cannot decide the game by throwing."

As expected, the opponent was wary of Bunda ’s throwing as expected, and it was n’t easy to bring it in enough posture, but it was the sleeping technique that decided the game.

In the third round, in the early stages, he took the point by using the sleeping technique of rotating the opponent called “Rolling”, gained his pace, and won the technical fall as it was. In the semi-finals, the first half did not do well where the opponent had set up rolling, and in the second half, conversely, “rolling” was combined to succeed four times and decided the game.

Ms. Bunda said, “How I won, and I've been doing it all the time while I was wary of throwing. I was confident that I could make another weapon to fight in the world.” .

On the 17th, Ms. Bunda will face the final in the world for the first time in two years. I'm looking forward to seeing what new battles will bring out the battle.

On the other hand, the rival confrontation with Ota was settled for the time being by the fact that Ms. Bunda secured the representative appointment of the Tokyo Olympics.

Ota is the silver medalist of the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, and Bunda is the world champion in 2017. The ability of the two people to compete is said to be able to aim for a gold medal regardless of who becomes the representative in the 60-kilometer class, and the winning or losing until 2017 is 4 wins and 4 losses and 5 minutes. I've been fighting for the representative.

In connection with the All Japan Championship last December, which is directly related to the Olympic team, Bunda won Ota and won the World Championship in June.

However, Ota didn't give up, and he was prepared to fight again with Ms. Bunda if Ms. Ms. Bunta was not decided to be a representative at the 60km class. On the other hand, Ms. Bunda told NHK in August that "Ota's seniors are under pressure, but I don't want to lose that pressure. I want to decide the representative in front of my seniors." It was.

At the World Championship, Ota won a gold medal in another class the day before Ms. Bunda's game and showed her ability.

On the 16th, Ms. Bunda decided that the representative was decided in front of Ota and settled the rival confrontation. "That person is so big that I can't come to here alone, but I can't give it up." I didn't go. "

Ota, on the other hand, said before the game of Ms. Bunda, “I want to decide what to do after waiting for the result of the 60-kilometer class.” We will continue to fight for this.
