I could totally beat that...

Man eats 45 slices of pizza in 10 minutes to win contest

NEW YORK (AP) -- Chowdown champ Joey Chestnut has done it again -- this time proving he's a pizza powerhouse.

He downed 45 slices in 10 minutes Sunday to win the first-ever Famous Famiglia World Pizza Eating Championship in New York's Times Square.

The 24-year-old from San Jose, California, says he fasted for more than a day to prepare.
He folded and squeezed the slices to make them easier to swallow.

The 24-year-old rocketed to competitive-eating celebrity when he won Coney Island's July Fourth hot-dog eating contest in 2007.

He took the title again this summer by gulping down 59 dogs in 10 minutes.

He won a contest in Tennessee last month by wolfing down 93 Krystal hamburgers in 8 minutes.
