Is Ronaldo Fat?

Ronaldo, the international soccer star from Brazil, and one of the best all-time soccer players ever, is being called flabby and overweight in the media these days. His performance in the current World Cup has not been impressive so far.

Ronaldo will turn 30 in September. His height is 6'0" and according to the FIFA World Cup site he weighs 82 kilograms or 181 pounds. This would give him a BMI of 24.5. Just on the borderline between normal weight and overweight. The Body Mass Index says you are in the normal range of weight if your BMI is between 18.5 and 24.9. Considering Ronaldo probably has a lot more heavier muscle (versus fat) than the typical guy, he could not officially be called overweight by any stretch of the imagination but the press is unkind and they are calling him flabby and are flabbergasted at his sluggish performance.

Ronaldo suffered an injury which put him out for most of April and May. He's also been suffering in his personal life as his second marriage recently fell apart. He has been complaining about dizzy spells and has gone to the hospital several times for tests, though nothing abnormal has been found. The Brazilian coach has not lost hope in Ronaldo and will have him star on the starting team again in the next World Cup game.

Update: How much does Ronaldo really weigh? According to his website, he weighs 86 kilograms, which is 190 pounds. This could be outdated info compared to the FIFA records.
