The fourth of our quarter finals and it's a really intriguing one. On the one hand we have the peoples champ, a beast with tremendous vocal backing but, like Jimmy White, seems to fall at the final hurdle against a relative newby who has gained some real traction with the supporter base this season. Who's going to come out on top? The gnarled veteran or the exuberant (tournament)youth?
Malayan Sun Bear

WHC IX performance:
Second round: Beat African Elephant 63-29
Group D: 2nd 25 votes(21.37%)
The Malayan Sun Bear is in his second season in the WHC. He barely made a ripple last season but this year, from the nominations thread on he has been making bigger and bigger waves. Why? Mostly because of its attitude and aggression. The bear don't give a ****. He's an aggressive little bugger(the smallest bear) that will attack for no perceivable reason and when it does attack there's no mucking about-it goes straight for the head, trying to rip its victims face off and destroy its skull.

WHC IX performance:
Second round: beat Japanese Giant Hornet 75-36
Group C: 1st 45 votes(31.47%)
The honey badger is one of the WHC greats. A three time finalist and multiple semi finalist he has the most devoted fans in the competition. It's easy to see why-he's basically made for the competition. He's small but extremely powerful. He's aggressive and fights with animals many times his size(Lions for example). His thick, loose skin allows him to continue fighting when he's in the jaws of a bigger beast. He can take a battering and give out a worse one. He eats poisonous snakes for breakfast. Is he the complete package? Does he have enough to see of the Malayan Sun Bear? You decide.
