    I thought this was gonna be Mexican wrestling.

    So for those of us who are late to the "Short Attention Span Party" in life...can you gimme CliffsNotes?

    If I gotta pick one, I'd say the wolverine, only because they fought of the Russkies in that movie. "Honey badger" sounds like the tail end of the honeymoon.

    I choose the Honey Badger because I read the book, “The Honey Badger by Robert Roark, a very good novel.

    There was a quote on e back jacket cover that goes something like this:
    There is a dangerous little animal in Africa that when cornered goes for the groin.
    It reminds very much of the modern American woman.

    I watched the video. My money is on the honey badger. Especially when he goes for the nitty gritty. :)

    The pundit picked the honey badger too. After hearing him say that a wolverine killed a polar bear by grabbing it by the throat WOW! and that convinced me to favor the wolverine.

    They showed on one of those PBS nature shows several hyenas attack a honey badger who was just trying to get back to its burrow, and sure enough the honey badger did indeed bite them where the sun doesn't shine.

    He was beaten up pretty badly, lots of wounds, but got back to his burrow.
