The quarter finals finish with a superb encounter. The 2017 champion and perennial WHC favourite Honey Badger finds itself going toe to toe with an entirely different foe in the form of the Seagull. This is just the type of encounter to stir passion in the audience at home. Let's see some fireworks...
Seagull - beat the Great White Shark 33/29 in the 2nd round
The Seagull will always be among friends on NSC but this isn't simply a sympathy vote. The Seagull is here on merit and make is through to the latter stages of the competition having swatted aside one of the WHC big beasts. The Great White Shark simply couldn't get a foothold in its second round encounter and the Seagull came out on top. Gulls have eked out a home in every corner of the planet and can even be found at both poles. Despite its humble appearance the Seagull is a very effective and versatile hunter. It can strike in the air, at sea or on land. But what really makes the Seagull a competitor at this level is its attitude. We've all ended up on the end of a Seagull attack at one time or another and the recorded number of attacks on people has rocketed in recent years. They're here and they don't care what you think about it.

Honey Badger - beat the Titan Triggerfish 36/19 in the 2nd round
The Honey Badger snarled, sneered and brawled its way to the WHC crown in 2017. It didn't rest on its laurels in 2018 either, only falling at the last to the victorious Hippo. There’s just something about the HB that seems to epitomise hardness. It will fight pretty much anything. Lions, Leopards, Hyenas, Snakes. The HB has brawled with them all. It has its own signature move: The Scrotal Strike. It has loose skin, which enables it to wriggle out of the most hopeless of scenarios and to turn on any attacker. While it also has bags of cunning it is perhaps best described simply as an "evil little *******". Expect WHC chaos as these two masters of mayhem go at it hammer and tongs.
A short clip to match that for the Seagull but a classic example of Honey Badger brawling. Even one being released can't resist the urge to take a swipe at its liberators.
