Christian Raymond (born 24 December 1943) is a French former professional road bicycle racer. In 1970 he won a stage of the Tour de France, and he also competed in the individual road race at the 1964 Summer Olympics. He rode for the Peugeot team in 1969. He is remembered for a remark made by his 12-year-old daughter, who gave the great cyclist Eddy Merckx his nickname: when Raymond explained to her how a race had gone, she said that the Belgian did not even leave the others the crumbs and was a cannibal, and the nickname stuck. The English Wikipedia article lists his major results and links his profiles at ProCyclingStats, CycleBase, Olympedia and the official Tour de France results.
