First time I have seen this in colour, thanks C.K.. I remember at the end of the contest someone was going to run onto the mat to congratulate him, and he shooed them away.Kneeling down to tie obi and the good mat manners shown by both men.
Ah the good old days!!

Yes, but remember this was following the poor behaviour of the Dutch in the 1961 world championships, when they stormed the tatami to congratulate Geesink on his victory over koji sone; not so good old days that year!
