Freaking intense!!!

Brown Widows are far less venomous than their black counterparts, but seem to be overtaking the Black Widow's in urban territories.

My. God.

This video doesn't really support the claim though..

the brown widow reached too much. it needs to get closer before it starts trying to fight.
as you can see, the black widow kept a nice, compact frame and was always in better position. an obviously more experience fighter.

Very true. Brown Widow seemed tentative and was "thinking" too much instead of acting naturally. Definitely the experience factor you mentioned previously. I think a few more fights and the Brown Widow will be ready.

Brownie has the intangibles. But like most rookies need to be groomed.

Soon I expect him to want holyfield.

I don't understand why everyone is terrified of spiders. I think they're really cool

For like a minute and a half of that (first) video...I was like, "Cmon you fucking spiders! Quit pussyfooting around and bite each other's faces!"

Then your theory that Brown Widow > Black Widow was all blow to hell. Unless > means "is a greater pussy than." Because that brown widow was a fucking pussy...the black one kept coming after it and it just ran off. Almost got another spider killed in the middle of it all.

My conclusive theory....brown widows are bigger pussies than black widows.

Already got one. My first one since it took place. I'm going to turn into a giant troll now, because I'm so distraught....
