No announcement yet.
The tiger is the real king of the jungle. Not the lion.

Pound for pound out in nature, Tigers are probably number 1.
But well that is not what I am here to discuss.

Originally posted by BoxingFan85 View Post1 on 1 a lion is smaller than a Tiger, a male tiger outweighs a male lion by 50kgs and a feet longer. In India for most part the boundaries and territories don't overlap but there have been confrontations (mostly seen by locals and not filmed) and the tiger gets the best of a lion.
A lion mostly is with its pride and a tiger is a solitary hunter so the tiger avoids conflicts at all costs.
And the difference of weight between Serbian tigers and African lions are 25-50 lbs but their dimensions are the same its just that the Serbian tiger is slightly thicker. Bengals are smalller than African lions.
I think you are confusing Asiatic Lions who are much smaller.

Secondly I would like to see some proof of your claim. The only place in India where there are any Lions left is Gir forest and these two cats don't live in the same areas so they have no contact.
Your last statement contradicts your own argument. Yes a Lion has a pride to get backup from so they take a lot more chances in fights and are a lot more bold and determined to fight to the death. It's not in a Tiger's instinct to do the same thing even with a size advantage.
That's why Tigers have been chased off by small bears and little Indian wild dogs. Meanwhile male Lions literally confront entire Hyena clans(some are 60+) without any hesitation and drive them all off. Tons of videos on youtube, check them out.
I would think Boxing fans would understand the concept of heart more than anyone. Lions>Tigers.

Tigers are huge, bigger than Lions. Tigers are the largest f/cking cat in the world lol. And the fastest. They are bigger, faster, stronger than Lions. Different f/cking weight classes. Tigers are also not social like Lions, they fight and hunt alone. Lions are gangsters/thugs, they need a gang to win fights. Lion is dead meat in a 1 on 1 vs a Tiger. Get the biggest possible male tiger 800lbs vs the biggest possible male lion 500lbs, you’re talking about a slaughter. An unfair fight even when considering only their average weight, which is about 100lbs apart in favor of the tiger. Then consider that the Tiger is a lone fighter. It’s like putting a gangbanger who grew up jumping people to win fights, in the ring with an MMA fighter where his boys and girls can’t jump in. Hell don’t the Lioness do all the hunting? Lmao. Slaughter in favor of the Tiger.

Tigers legs and front legs are more dense in bone structure and muscular.
But yes many different types of Tigers, and Lions.
Shame about the Barbary Lion.

But African Lions are bigger than Bengal Tigers. The Barbary Lion was the same size as Siberians I think. Shame truly.

I have seen Asiatic lion and bengal tiger, there are no comparison at all. A bengal tiger is 1.5 times the size of asiactic lion, and African lion may be taller but length wise a Tiger is longer and heavier.
Siberian Tiger is the biggest of cats hands down and weighs a lot more because of he fat reserves.
