Sporting a Paunch
There were two guards in the bank, Walter Pick and Peter Willis, both retired NYPD, both sporting a paunch that middle age and the promise of an imminent pension brought.
What does it mean by 'sporting a paunch'?
Thank you in advance.

It means they both had big bellies.

In this case, sporting means "displaying". It has nothing to do with sport games.
