You must not Google or You Tube the results, but first predict the outcome. Then the fight promoter gets to reveal the outcome and the person who guessed with the best description has to then make their own contest. Look, we have no boxing. This is the best we have short of people with Alzheimer's predicting the results of legendary fights they have forgotten about.
So, I will go first. Alligator versus Cat. Who wins and why?
Cat or Alligator? Please posit a viewpoint.
Gandalf says Cat because of 'sass appeal'. Gandalf wins.
Praying Mantis versus the Ants.
Who wins? And why?
I’d say praying mantis unless it’s a lot of those mean ants that swarm everything. I’ve seen mantis eat things they have strong jaws but the aren’t built to fight a swarmQuote:

How about Sloth versus Eagle?
Good thread. Common says says the Eagle. Just about everything in it's favour. But I like the underdog generally so will go with the sloth through attrition.
Memphis wins. Sloth bullies the Eagle into flight. Your turn Memphis!Quote:

Honey Badger V Leopard
I am going to have to think about that one or pass onto Walrus or Lyle. I refuse to cheat.
Badger because it has some honey to stick it to the leopard.
This is serious Master. Don't fuck about.
I refuse to seriously participate in this game as I do not want to click and watch these sick snuff videos.Quote:

Just for you, the video link can be posted inside a spoiler tag. We got a deal?Quote:

Right, I am going with the badger. I don't really know why. I always feel there is a trick involved when it comes to a smaller animal matchup. Big against big you lean either way. Big against small you suspect the leopard has 2 legs or has been fasting in the desert for 3 weeks with no food or water.
I am picking the badger by decision.
Obviously you're right. The Honey Badger is a fearsome warrior and never really loses a fight.
It's quite safe Master
Fantastic. These are better than my boxing picks. I am going out as we are Corona free so if anyone would like to carry this on I will joinin later.
How about a regular sized kitty and a cobra. Damn I hope I can find the video I saw it on nat geo a while back.
The cat has timing and defense. I am going to guess the Cobra retired to his corner after a bit of Calzaghe slapping. Sounds like the outcome of a real fight too actually.
Can’t find the video but I watched a documentary about cats in the Middle East which is where they are suspected of coming from. To narrow it down they think cats come from what is now Israel. Anyway they showed these cats in the deserts of Egypt. Their main source of food is actually snakes. Yes they were doing battle with cobras and typically win. It’s interesting scientists think the hissing sound cats make while fighting are something they picked up from cobras. The fight was quite intense the cat kept swatting the the cobra with impeccable timing. The cobra final fell from the wounds and the cat went in for the kill. The documentary also said it was the Vikings who were responsible for bringing cats to many parts of the world, apparently red tabby cats were a good luck thing to them. Sorry for the lack of snuffQuote:

I'm going with the wasps. The 30 wasps will use a blend of Aikido to fend off multiple attackers making the numbers irrelevant, and dirty street fighting to finish them off once the numbers dwindle.Quote:

Japanese Wasps are hornets?
Ah they are all the same it hurts like hell when the bite you. Yes I screwed up the name but at least I didn’t get racist. These are hornets who identify as waspsQuote:

The history of dogs is interesting too. They came from Wolves but were smaller and scavenging near Men who were hunters who started feeding them. They probably took some cubs and domesticated them to became man's best friend.Quote:
