A Nigerian Is Fifa’s Strongest Player In Guiness Book Of World Records by saintgh: 5:40pm On Dec 02, 2015
Adebayo “The Beast” Akinfenwa (UK)
recently visited the Guinness World
Records headquarters in London
where he was presented with an
official certificate for his title Strongest
player in the FIFA videogame series
and challenged to some exciting
record attempts.
The record was based upon the FIFA
videogame titles FIFA 12 (strength
rating 97), FIFA 13 (99), FIFA 14 (97)
and FIFA 16 (98), accruing an average
strength rating of 97.6. In the most
recent iteration, experts had graded
Akinfenwa’s strength stats at 98 out of
99, two more than Dinamo Moskva’s
Christopher Samba.
Commenting on his award, the
professional footballer who plays for
AFC Wimbledon said: “People talk
about size, but my stats speak for
themselves…There aint nobody
stronger than me out there!”
Editor of the Guinness World Records
Gamer’s Edition, Stephen Daultrey
said: “Very few footballers repeatedly
top-score in FIFA ratings unless
they're Messi or Ronaldo, so it’s
fantastic that a lower-league English
player has been recognised by
experts as the highest-strength player
on four occasions. Akinfenwa has
become a real cult star off the back of
his presence in FIFA. With his
unconventional footballing physique
and playing style, it’s very likely that
Akinfenwa is the strongest pound-for-
pound pro currently in the game –
just as FIFA repeatedly claims."
While he was in the office, The Beast
attempted the title Fastest time to
score against a computer on FIFA 16,
though despite several tries fell short
of the 33.06 minimum record to beat.
Adebayo gamely took up the call to
attempt some classic records with
LEGO® and Mr Potato Head.
His dexterity skills were put to the test
with the tallest Lego® structure built
in thirty seconds achieving a
respectable 21, just 7 blocks short of
the record title. Ade also made a
valiant effort to achieve the fastest
time to assemble Mr Potato Head.
Ade Akinfenwa’s FIFA record will
appear in the Guinness World Records
