I think the only people who'd call him fat are the people obsessed with 6-pack abzorz. He's well within a healthy body fat percentage. Relating this back to the original article about the woman from a week ago, there's a marked difference between where she sits bodyfat %-wise and where he fits bodyfat %-wise, and that's after taking into account that for a woman's bodyfat % you should basically add 10 onto the number when comparing to a man.
By the looks of things, I'd say he's sitting at about 15% BF, whereas I'd say she's sitting at about 30% (to be comparable to him, she should be about 25% or he should be about 20%). Of course their actual BF%'s aren't written in the articles, so I'm guestimating their %'s, but it's plain to see that if I were to measure their skin folds, hers would come back with bigger numbers than his, most likely at every skin fold site.
