Tomorrow's big showdown is set, with reigning Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Champions Joey Chestnut facing off against six-time champ Takeru Kobayashi in the battle of who can devour-and keep down-more hot dogs in 10 minutes. The two, along with other contestants, were weighed in today. Kobayashi is 165 pounds while Chestnut is 230 pounds. Last year, Chestnut set the new world record by eating 66 hot dogs--66 hot dogs equal to about about 14.5 pounds (Kobayashi ate 63 hot dogs, a new personal best for him, equal to 13.8 pounds).

Let's go Joey!!
No way! Kobayashi the Komeback Kid for the win.
Kobayashi's really been working those abs. Tough call: will those muscles cramp at hot dog number thirty seven, or will they speed his freaky digestive tract to another huge victory?
If AveB4life's mom entered the competition, she'd be the lock of the century. Although, it wouldn't really be fair, given that she can eat the hotdogs without chewing.
Fair enough Snakefist, its sad your mom can't even enter the competition because she inserts the hotdogs into another orifice. and i'm out!
Well played, sir.
I'm glad to see Takeru Kobayashi has shrunk in size and now looks more natural.
