Despite reports that Kobayashi suffered a jaw injury during his breakneck training, many speculate that his announcement was made in fear of losing to local boy, Joey Chestnut.

Chestnut recently beat Takeru's record of 53 doggies in 12 minutes, shocking professional and amateur athletes around the world.
