Japan's Kobayashi wins pizza-eating rematch
Japan's Takeru Kobayashi outlasted Joey Chestnut when the eating titans faced off to see
who could devour the most pizzas.
Kobayashi, a six-time world hot dog eating champion from Japan, consumed 5 P'zones in a six-minute span of chaotic consumption,
edging out Chestnut, a 25-year-old from San Jose, California.
The archrivals are best known for their annual Fourth of July hot dog eating showdowns on New York's Coney Island.
Chestnut has beaten his Japanese competitor the last two years.
This time, they went cheek-to-jowl in a stomach-centric contest sponsored by Pizza Hut and featuring the P'zone,
a pizza weighing 0.45 kilograms with pepperoni and other ingredients sealed inside a crust.
At nearly 30.5 centimeters long, it resembles a calzone.
