In the biggest heavyweight showdown of 2025, we’ve got a real chonk-off between two titans of tub with a fluff-to-fat ratio that defies physics: 32 Chunk vs. 856

32 Chunk rolls into the ring with a gut so glorious it could eclipse the Alaskan sun. 856 isn’t here to play. Word on the riverbank is he once stared down a fish and it swam straight into his mouth. Who’ll take the crown? Finals voting begins today at 9 am Pacific / 12pm Eastern.
