So I've been reading up on the dynamic between these two characters and to me it seems as though Sabretooth is just a bully with no real explanation for his constant harassment of Logan. This dude could be chilling at home watching Ice Road truckers and all of a sudden remember that it's Logan's birthday, meaning it's time to track him down and maim him as is tradition.

In the community they originated from, Wolverine was the only person that didn't fear him, so that pissed him off and since they're both animalistic(more so Sabretooth), he makes it a priority to try and kill him to be the sort of Alpha. Like an obsessive rivalry of sorts

But he knows that he's bigger, faster and stronger than Logan. What does he gain from dominating somebody who is proven to be inferior to him?

He hasn't killed him, that's why. He won't be satisfied until he kills him, that's his ultimate prey. But also in the animal kingdom, it isn't always about size and strength. Wolverine suppresses his animalistic impulses but when he becomes unglued on that berserker shyt, he's up there with Sabretooth and has held his own many a time, and Sabretooth knows he's more than a threat to him.

Sabretooth has never been faster than Wolverine. Also, Wolverine's healing factor is more efficient than Sabretooth's as well, so technically, the inferiority complex is probably on Sabretooth for that. Wolverine has been besting him more often in the last decade anyway, so ain't really better than him either. They go back and forth.

If only we could get a real Sabretooth/Wolverine fight on the big screen. That shyt would be bloody as hell. Do they fight in the Old Man Logan storyline?

Nah. You see him fighting "Sabretooth" when the "villains" invade the X-Mansion. Of course we come to find out that it was only Mysterio, who had created an illusion, and the "villains" that he was fighting and killing was the X-Men.

He fights the Hulk and his Hulk Family, Red Skull, and Mole Men through out the story.
