sam,
I think Chestnut just made a huge mistake. He eats 54, he gets the record and then surprises Kobiyashi to take the title. But unless he has a 60+ performance ready to uncork at Coney Island, he just showed his hand and will once again have to be content with second place in the Big Show.

ED - I empathize with your suggestion of the reverse Pearl Harbor move, but its very possible that asking Chestnut to eat only 54 at this stage is like asking LeBron James to only score 20 points per game. It is very difficult for athletes at the top of their game to throttle down in a competitive setting. In fact, that's often how people get hurt. A bruised esophagus or something would be disastrous for him right now.
