I was watching the English Super League the other day and noticed that Mark Riddel was actually looking fatter then when he was in the NRL. He had a decent sized keg protruding from his Jersey. This made me wonder about who is possibly the best fat athlete in the history of sport.
There seem to be a few cricketers who fit into the category. People like Lehman, Hughes and Boon clearly drank too much piss and didn't do too much running on the field. There are some fat League stars that come to mind i.e. Ridell, Craige, Widders, Lazarus and Webcke. Other international "Fatletes" include John Daly, Ronaldo (not Cristiano) and Shaq.
Do you know of any other "Fatletes" ??
Who do you nominate as the most skillful and talented "Fatlete" in the history of sport ?
