If it's Siberian tigers, which are usually far bigger than lions - I'm putting my bet on tiger.

Also, tigers have far worse/vicious canines than lions and they're also better hunters and much more agile.

One bite by the tiger would be fatal.

I've seen videos of hyenas putting fear in lions because of their vicious canines and hyenas are neither good hunters nor agile. So, you can only imagine what a tiger would do. I might fancy jaguars as well against lions.
:dahell: hyenas are good hunters

male lions stay fighting and gota fight to take over a pride. there's gangs of young lions going around fighting and killing shyt.
tigers are stealth killers they aren't fighters. what animals do tigers fight in the wild

go watch the discovery channel :pacspit:
Tigers fight black bears on occasions, more vicous and powerful than anything Lions can fight 1-1plus being Stealth killers gives them an advantage, they could easily dance around a lion though they're both ambush predators. Plus tigers have a significant weight advantage and yet still stealthier.

I think this can go either way. The tiger is larger and stronger, but the lion has better protection and more one vs. one fighting experience.
Other male lions get through manes so why cant tigers with higher bite force do the same also add in that in the midst of a battle that mane will overheat the lion. Also contrary to popular belief male lions dont fight to the death as much as tigers, they'd much rather flee when losing. Also lions are social animals which makes them less ferocious than solitary tigers hunting solo. Why you think in captivity zoologist and zoo keepers are more comfortable around lions and less so tigers.

Male lions don't actually catch prey, that badass action is all female.

Male lions' job is to protect so all they ever do is fight. They fight other wild animals to keep their food, they fight each other for dominance of the pride.

I don't know enough about Tigers to comment but I would think their weight would make them slower?

This thread has been done and we went in-depth

Lions win. Historically this match up has happened many times and the results are lion over tiger.

I remember reading when the Romans used to get them to fight in the coliseum, the Tigers would win almost every single fight. That's not really a surprise if you think about it, Tigers are stronger, smarter, and faster than Lions. They also hunt by themselves, while Lions are used to hunting in groups.
Again wrong. Lions have won most of the match ups

Barbary Lion vs Siberian Tiger

Thread is quite extensive so I will link whatever relevant posts I can

This post deals with the supposed weight and size advantage of Tigers

On this link you will find extensively recorded historical fights between the two Felines. The fights go both ways

Clyde beatty stated in his 40 years working with them, he has handled 2,000 lions and tigers, with an act of 40 at a time. At that amount one must ask, how didnt the lions and tigers kill each other? In a 1951 news report, Clyde beatty stated he did lose some of the animals over the coarse of his career...50 tigers were killed by lions:Jungle Cats' Clash Not In Act -

Why didnt that guy named...Rajah...a usual tigers name lol...mention any of beattys casualty's that Clyde mentions in all three of his books, The big cage, Jungle performers and Facing the big cats:

1928 Lion named Prince killed a tigress trudy saving beattys life
1929 Lion named Nero Killed a tiger named Pasha saving his life
1930 A gang fight erupted in the result of 3 tigers killed by lions
1931 A Lion named duke and a lioness killed a tigress Snip and a tiger
1932 A lion named sammy killed a lioness
1933 A lion named Sultan killed a tiger name Tommy
1933 A lion named Caesar killed a tiger named Bobby
1933 A fight staged for the film big cage, a lion killed a tiger
1933 Two more tigers were killed in gang fights
1934 Accidental fights in performances were used for the lost jungle, a tigress nelly was killed by a lion
1934 The same lion Caesar killed two tigers and was taken out of the act
1935 Lion named detroit kills 3 tigresses, Alice, empress and slilka
1936 Beatty mentions in his long career he has 25 tigers killed by lions accidentally
1936 A lion named Boss tweeds fought and killed 3 bengal tigers at once
1936 Clyde mentions a lion killed a tiger named Poona
1937 Clydes wife Harriet witnesses a lion kill a tiger in his act.
1938 A lion named Memphis kills a tigress named Sehka
1947 Two lions Tarzan and Henry kills a tiger named Toona
1951 Another lion named prince, killed 3 tigresses and two tigers, Rosie, slieka 2, and sheba
1951 Clyde states 50 tigers were killed by lions in his 40 year career so far
1953 Two lions kill a bengal tiger in beattys act
1954 A lion named France killed two tigers
1957 His third lion named Caesar kills 2 tigers

Here you have historical art from many places depicting the same thing over and over again. The lions dominance over the tiger. They talk about how most people that cite tigers winning over Lions historically have no proof. Poets, Mosaic arts and artifacts say otherwise...

Here is a zoologists take on this
Barbary Lion vs Siberian Tiger
David salmoni


He's a zoologist, a renowned animal trainer, a television presenter and a producer with his own South Africa-based production company, his love for animals. In 1998, Salmoni began his apprenticeship as an animal trainer at Bowmanville Zoological Park near Toronto, one of the world's largest humane-credited providers of highly trained animals. Salmoni focused on large cat training and has been training large cats as well as other predators since then.Salmoni was offered a life-changing opportunity to be the first to travel with two captive-bred Bengal tigers to Africa and train them how to hunt and survive in the wild. Following this experience, Salmoni lived among African lions for three months in an attempt to show that lions and humans can co exsist in the same area.

David salmoni says:

He’d give the edge to a lion in a fight with a tiger, even with a 150 lb advantage.


“To get a tiger to want to fight you is pretty hard,” says Salmoni. “Tigers don’t like to fight. They hunt to kill and eat. That’s it.” Unlike lions, which grow up in groups and are used to sparring, tigers are solitary animals, responsible for their own food and survival, Salmoni says. They will take the risk to fight only “if they feel they have to.
http://animal.discovery.com/tv/af...ck/dave-salmoni/dave-salmoni.html

So its not as if there were brain dead people who put it together, there were people with P.hd's on board...so I dont know where all these commentators go an criticize the team who havent an ounce of studying them or any history of working with either or even seeing a wild tiger and lion. As for the comments, I still dont understand the notion that the tiger is a lone hunter thus more experience, on basic logic this makes no sense. All this goes back to the notion that tigers...are suppose to be bigger.

for their little while in the rings and the arena....You never know when one of these babies will go crazy on your hands," said Mr. Nelson. Tigers easier to train, too, he said. Lions Always Beat Tigers "I've seen lots of gang fights between lions and tigers-- we had a me this spring when we opened in Chicago," he asserted...The tiger always attacks the lion by rolling over on his back and going for the throat When he goes for the throat he runs into a mane two or three inches thick and the same mane extends all down ie underside of the lion's body.
