    What sense would there be to have this build-up if he doesn’t win? Aren’t they just playing it private/public depending on whether he beat Molly’s time?

    Are you sure about that undefeated streak vs women? He challenged Sonya’s fruitcake record before he left MLE. He didn’t come close. Anyone else remember?

    Kobayashi beat Molly’s time of 2:24 with 1:45 and wins the $5,000:

    This is the first head-to-head match up of Kobi and Molly, and he destroyed her. I had thought Molly was better, but Kobi proved me wrong.

    No offense to Taco in a Bag, but the Taco Trough looks like vomit or dog poop when competitors are eating it. It’s even the same color mostly.

    Confirms what we already were saying: Stonie, then Chestnut/Kobi, then Molly. Next tier: Pat & old Janus

    Why doesn’t Kobi do the NYC dumpling when he was there anyway?

    7:01: He was probably paid more just to make an appearance?

    Another question is why didn’t he do that Wayback Burger challenge for $3,300?

    After having watched both videos, Kobayashi completely destroyed Molly by 39 sec. Molly looked really slow. Now we know why All Pro doesn’t want her competing against Kobi. We also know why Molly didn’t join the big boys at MLE. Karma for all of Molly’s fakery and backstabbing.

    Looked really slow? Are you delusional? She destroyed over 6 lbs of food in just over 2 minutes. It’s absolutely baffling to read comments on this site anymore that simply attack people, when these individuals making them obviously have no eating experience.
