However, it seems that Joey and his managers have prioritized a new partnership with a different hot dog brand over our longtime relationship.&#8221; \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chestnut ended up competing against his old rival, Takeru Kobayashi, in a hot dog eating competition that streamed on Netflix on Labor Day last year. Chestnut ended up winning that contest, which followed the same rules as the Nathan&#8217;s competition.<\/p>\n<p>Chestnut has agreed to only endorse Nathan&#8217;s hot dogs going forward, so he was allowed to return this year.<\/p>\n<h2>Who is expected to win the hot dog eating contest?<\/h2>\n<p>Chestnut and Sudo are far and away the favorites to win the men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s contests, respectively. Chestnut comes in at an enormous -2000 favorite. Bertoletti is +1200, but comes in at +155 in the Winner Without Chestnut market, according to CBS Sports.<\/p>\n<p>Many sportsbooks aren&#8217;t even offering odds on the women&#8217;s side due to Sudo&#8217;s dominance, according to CBS Sports. However, betting expert Matt Severance told CBS Sports the Under 45.5 for Sudo at -105 could be a worthwhile wager. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Check out CBS Sports for a more detailed breakdown of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/betting\/news\/nathans-hot-dog-eating-contest-2025-odds-predictions-betting-expert-reveals-picks-for-fourth-of-july-event\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hot dog eating contest&#8217;s odds<\/a> and predictions.<\/p>\n<h2>What is the record amount of hot dogs eaten at a hot dog eating contest?<\/h2>\n<p>Chestnut holds both the official and unofficial world records for most hot dogs eaten in a competition.

Competitors have 10 minutes to eat <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/nathans-hot-dog-eating-contest-2024-calories-consumed\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">as many hot dogs and buns as possible<\/a><\/span>. They can break the hot dogs up with their hands and separate them from the buns, but the entire thing, hot dog and bun, has to be swallowed for it to count.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Utensils and condiments are prohibited.<\/p>\n<p>Water is provided, but contestants can bring other non-alcoholic beverages if they want. Contestants can dunk the buns in the water or their beverage, but only for a maximum of five seconds.<\/p>\n<p>If a contestant throws up, they&#8217;re disqualified.<\/p>\n<p>Whoever downs the most hot dogs and buns in the 10-minute time period is the winner.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n        <\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/jordan-freiman\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Jordan  Freiman<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Jordan Freiman is a news editor for CBSNews.com.
