Never Underestimate the Heart of Champion

Rumors about a jaw injury have led oddsmakers to make Kobayashi an underdog (at 3/2) to win the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest.
Kobayashi owns this event, Joey Chestnut is a flash in pan. Chestnut is a 1/3 favorite. You can get 15/1 on the field.
And the over/under for the winner is 57 hot dogs. You get the better price with the under, and I'm going to go with the under.
Kobayashi eats 56, Chestnut does 53 1/2 and Kobayashi defends his title, giving him 7 in a row.

The chowdown showdown
