So here's the thing.
The only way Honey Badger wins is by biting the human's neck or by dealing enough damage for him to bleed out.
Now Mr Average guy can casually do this:
I'm not gonna say the Honey Badger dies right away, but... A honey badger weighs like 35 lb at most. I just imagine this to be a terrible stomp the moment the human grabs the damn thing. Also I image this kind of shit:

The average american joe today freaks out and gets mauled, infected and dies. Posting anime and loki gifs is pretty cringe by the way, considering a lot of modern males can't even throw 30lbs (or lift it)
Moment the average guy gets his hands close to it, it'd probably slit his wrists. Honey badges are probably just as durable as the average western male nowadays lol. Honey badger actually takes this and fairly easily

This is the average western guy. 30 year old skinnyfat dude with no fighting training or muscles whatsoever that can't scare a cat away. Most humans nowadays are pathetic to the definition of the word dude.GreyFang82 said:

The western world has a higher population than China/India combined, just by a small margin. At least that's what I remember. Indians are on average much shorter/smaller though, so are Chinese just to a lesser extent. The image seems to show an average western guy.

Like no place in Asia or South America has an average height of 5'10, that is only Europe or Africa

That 'mr average' doesn't match the majority of India/China's population at all. There's also the rest of the nearly 8 billion people of earth. Africa is going to be higher in population than China or India in a few years btw

"The average american joe today freaks out and gets mauled, infected and dies."
But in the versus wiki both "characters" are willing to kill, and unless there's a study that the vast majority of everyone runs like a wuss, this is non factor.
"Posting anime and loki gifs is pretty cringe by the way"
Ok, so you're roasting me for exaggerating something, on the Fun and Games Board?
"considering a lot of modern males can't even throw 30lbs (or lift it)"
You got a source for that? You just kinda pulled that out of your butt. According the the wiki, the average person can pick up the dang thing no problem.

If you've read the news, Bangladesh is one of the most f**ked-up countries you can ever possibly go to, and being from this country saddens me. It's rife with political issues, people killing each other with molotovs, and of course, horrific traffic accidents (it caused quite a stir on the internet this year), and if you try reporting crimes, the next place you end up is usually either in jail or with a bullet in yer head, but most of the times, the crimes go unsolved thanks to bribery. Same goes for making memes about our corrupted politicians.
Sad little story for a poor man like me.

An "average man" is a 30-40 year old in China.
Yes, he still beats the badger. The badger may get a good bite in, but without stopping power the badger can't win. To deal damage the badger must get close, and that lets the man grab it, slam it to the ground (probably dealing huge damage thanks to the weight difference), and either choke it out or stomp on it, either one of which will kill it.
The only chance the badger has if the human just becomes too scared and lets himself get totally mauled. There are very few non-venomous animals that can bridge a nearly 4x weight difference against a human.

The Ratel is know to be one of them, and he's gonna have to ignore a lot of pain to legitimately choke out the badger.Assaltwaffle said:
It has long sharp badger claws made to cut deep, sharp teeth for.... something else badgers do, stretchy/baggy skin on the back of their necks and bodies to keep from being grabbed and held by the jaws and claws of predators, etc.

Not the first time the Avg. Joe has dealt with this. Old people have killed bears with pocket knives and lions with spears before. One man even killed a jaguar by ripping out its tongue while having his hand being in the jaguar's jaws, completely ignoring the pain even.

The stretchy skin is so that the claws and jaws don't puncture skin. The human isn't trying to break skin, they are trying to choking it out so that point is moot.
If you grab a creature by it's neck and it is not a snake they cant reverse triple spin themselves and bite you.

Ignoring pain is something anyone in flight or fight can do, it's called adrenaline.

OK, it's a leopard, but they're comparable.

Adrenaline is a crazy thing. Even a normal human can resist s lot of pain when in a threatening situation. Also the man doesn't need to watch movies or know martial arts to know "grab and crush". That offensive method doesn't require you to study or learn.

Not really. Have you ever been in an adrenaline rush? It just makes you freaked out, while the HB is mauling him.Assaltwaffle said:

I am from South Africa, a country filled with poverty and a gargantuan murder rate outshining all of Asia and most of the Americas while also being a country where people live off a couple hundred dollars a year. It is not a contest. I have seen honey badgers irl and they're awful to deal with in any way - no wonder a westerner doesn't know anything about them lolKLOL506 said:
