Takeru Kobayashi looks to recapture his title at this year’s Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Chamionship in Coney Island. His record was recently broken by American Joey “Jaws” Chestnut. The six time champ Kobayashi may be the underdog here as he recently had wisdom teeth extracted and was treated for a sore jaw. Of course, this could just be a pre-competition psych. Here is footage of his championship outing in 2006.
