Squirrel Girl, because she has a larger nut sack.

Squirrel Girl beats Chuck. Badly. Off-panel.

Squirrel Girl in a walk, especially if Chuck is prepared.

I honestly didn’t expect Chuck to get so completely pwned.

Squirrel Girl always wins. Chuck Norris is a washed-up has-been who probably couldn’t even beat an ordinary squirrel. How is this even in dispute?

The thought of Chuck Norris being attacked by squirrels makes me giggle.

She’s a joke character created by Marvel Comics. Even though her only actual superpower is the ability to talk to squirrels, and she ends up fighting some of the most dangerous villains on the planet, she somehow consistently manages to beat all of them. So far as I know, she’s the only undefeated character in all of comics.

Squirrel Girl wins as long as the camera is not on the fight.

If the camera IS on the fight, it can go either way.

If she were fighting Vin Diesel (the original of the Internet facts), I’d have to think at least a little. But as it is now, no contest.

Did he even do any fighting the last couple of seasons of _Walker, Texas Ranger_?

I was talking about the Internet “Chuck Norris” meme, not the actual person.

“some of the most dangerous villains on the planet” should read “Villains in the universe”. Like Thanos!

The funny thing is many comic book fans totally love the Squirrel Girl concept and seem to accept her within the canon.

I always thought Squirrel Girl was Marvel making good natured fun of fans who like to argue about which character would win in a fight, when of course it’s up to the writer. No way Squirrel Girl should have one those fights, but she did, because that’s what the writer said.

So then she did.

Shoulds mean nothing if someone who has the ultimate authority says it happened…it happened

And Squirrel Girl definitely wins in both the fight and the bikini contest
