Unferth "ne u[thorn]e, [thorn]aet aenig o[eth]er man / aefre maer[eth]a [thorn]on ma middangeardes / gehede under heofenum [thorn]onne he sylfa" ("did not concede that any other man of middle-earth cared more about glory under heaven than himself") (503-505); after this description, Unferth proceeds to bluntly challenge Beowulf about a past heroic deed.
The fact is, Unferth, if you were truly as keen or courageous as you claim to be Grendel would never have got away with such unchecked atrocity, attacks on your king, havoc in Heorot and horrors eye where.
