Generally speaking those with larger frames and who carry a lot of fat must have quite developed musculature underneath (and you can absolutely see that is the case with some).
But Takakeisho is a short man who breaks a sweat and gasps for air when merely standing up, and his matches rarely go longer than 3-7 seconds. Once he's headbutted and slapped and pushed you a few times, he's in oxygen debt. 0-cardio training.
Unless he retires soon I doubt he'll make it to 40.

*feels better about the smoking and beer*
On the subject of nutrition, I am pretty sure human problems with nutrition are mainly because we have lost touch with the sensations from our digestive system. It uses more serotonin than the brain and has an extensive nervous system.
A recent small study gave a range of primates unlimited access to food, only the humans involved ate to excess.

He had a sore tummy a few days ago, but still insisted on eating. I've never witnessed an animal dry heave so heavily between mouthfuls and carry on regardless.
He taught himself how to sit, too. Sitting on their arse isn't a very natural or comfortable position for a greyhound due to how they're built, so we never bothered to teach him a 'sit' command. One day we were filling our gobs full of bourbon creams and all of a sudden ‐ *plop*, he sits his arse down and stares at us expectedly. Unreal. Fat shit.

I'm guessing a labrador?

But by greyhound standards he's a bit of a beefer.

If I took a photo in my house, someone might phone social services.
