Great White Shark vs. Crabsnake

Rules:
  • Fight takes place in the Jellyshroom Cave
  • Both start around 25 meters away from eachother
So that's it. If anything's unfair, tell me.

Generic big shark:
Advantage of faster (in short busts) and better bite force
Big snake arthropod: 2
Advantage in LS and length
The kharaa bacterium gets them (incon):

I don't think the Crabsnake's biteforce is too far behind the Shark. It should be comparable to the Stalker as it can damage both Ryley (a bit more than Stalker) and the Seamoth (about half of Stalker probably because its jaws aren't exactly built to pierce through metal unlike the former's teeth). With that being said, having the fight takes place in the Jellyshroom Cave gives the Crabsnake the homefield advantage and the ability to enter the durable giant fungi to hide and potentially ambush the Shark as it usually does with its enemies. The Shark is faster at top speed but it can't really maintain it for long without building up large amounts of lactic acid. The way I see it, the Crabsnake wins more often than not by overpowering and assaulting the Shark with its superior LS and if the latter somehow manages to escape and harm the former, the Crabsnake can retreat to one of the Jellyshrooms and trick the Shark into wasting its stamina trying to break in to no avail before emerging to attack again.

Can I count that as a vote for the Crabsnake?
