If a lion and tiger got into a fight, who would win?

not all tigers though. except for the royal bengal tiger , other species are not as aggresive.

THE LION IS WOULD WIN.

physically- lions mane better protection to the neck than tigers whiskers.
psychologically- wild tiger probably never fought another predator, lions fight to survive.
mentally – lions warm climate gives them faster reflex and more intelligent.

'physically- lions mane better protection to the neck than tigers whiskers.'
not true. The article above even says this is disputed.

psychologically- wild tiger probably never fought another predator, lions fight to survive.'
Again not true. Tigers often attack large dangerous animals like water buffalo, so obviously have evolved to tackle large animals and bring them down quickly to reduce the chance of injury.

'mentally – lions warm climate gives them faster reflex and more intelligent'
Again, not true. Lions and tigers are both warm blooded so reaction time isn't affected by temperature (unlike reptiles, for instance). Also tigers, despite having a smaller skull actually have a larger brain and is it often agreed that they are more intelligent. Being able to hunt alone instead of relying on others supports this.

It king for you not for tiger..

February Oguryu Suhang waw!! best answer!!!

It is an obvious fact by now that tigers are superior to lions. Tigers are larger, more muscular, and stronger. Lions fight in packs so don't have to worry about one to one fighting giving the tiger an edge in fighting techniques. The tigers in these videos were young females who were caught in the moments they were fighting poorly. But anyway there are so few tigers and lion left we should not worry about tigers being superior to lions

lion vs. tiger. The tiger has a size advantage. But it is slight though an African lion is bigger than any other tiger, except for the Siberian Tiger.

Siberian Tiger weighs about 500 to 700 pounds .

African lion can weigh 500 to 660 pounds.

Siberian Tigers usually weigh 10 to 60 pounds more than an African lion.

This size advantage dose not make it that easy for the Tiger to beat up the lion.

Male African lion spends there first 4 to 5 years learning how to fight.

Male African lions are way braver than tigers they will usually accept a challenge, they usually wont run away.

Anyway The lion will win 6 out of 10 times against Tiger.

Tiger fans just to tell you all of these videos of tiger beating lions usually Happens in south or north Korea in zoos. Very curious about these things, sometimes I thing that these battles are planned by stupid tiger fans in north or south Korean zoo. This is just my opinion not saying it is right or wrong

Ur right lions mane has a protection for its neck.

Lions and tigers are both of the same genetic make up. They are cats…They are both pack hunters, they are both masculine, they both are noctuenal and hunt at night. I wish you would explain to me how creatures of similar characteristics would ever find themselves in a fight, or how one wouldbe clearly dominant over the other.

The tiger is more power physically, it's been proven, more agile, probably from hunting all the time alone, while the lion(male usually don't hunt, unless with exceptionally large preys) smarter (with a MUCH higher brain to rest of body ratio, and also overall size, remember tiger are larger), and while most of us seems to think instinctively that the lion's mane helps them in a fight, expert actually suggest that it hinders the lion and make them slower, and the mane is only useful for attracting mates, so you have one that is larger stronger smarter and also faster and more agile, it's not difficult to tell who wins, that and historically tiger generally wins, but regardless, even if a tiger wins hands down again a lion, that doesn't matter because lions moves in prides, and tiger alone, which is the real deciding factor in the fight, no one will think that if a tiger attack a pride which a tiger is too smart to do anyways, that the rest of the male lions and the females will just stand by and watch, so lion always wins against tiger, just never one on one

I respect the lions hunting skills,team work and protecting their blood line by being a highly social cats but when it comes to one on one combat the tiger usually come out on top period.it is a provin fact since the roman times and present.tigers are more powerfull,bigger etc.theres no need for a debate.

I say a lion would win, cuz in a fight size don't matter. Plus a lion is more battle tested then a tiger. Its more contenders lions gotta go through.. also a male lion don't run in packs only the females run in packs. He just run the pack.

ya pigs cant beat lion but tiger will not only beat the lion they will kill it bcuz they go for quick kill.

Anthony Stirling If they were of the same genetic make up, I'm pretty sure they'd be the same animal. Tigers are not pack hunters. I don't know where you've attained this information.

Then why'd people called the lion king of the jungle, instead of tiger then?

Surendar Cyrus Hbk well kings lead, so following that logic, lion is more king than tiger

Tigers are basically active killers. They kill to hunt to survive.

Lions are much more political. Alpha males need to be strong to certain degree just to stay alpha in his pride.

In a fight, a tiger will own a lion

I'm not sure why you're giving me information about what Lions do as a pack. We're talking about a one on one fight first and foremost. Some really obvious facts I'd like to point out. The average Tiger is larger, for siberian and Bengal tigers. Tigers fight with both paws, Lions strike with one. Tigers are scientifically proven to be smarter, or in lamens terms they have larger brains. As for the Rome report it was stated that their were many battles and that the tigers almost always won. I'd love the website that states it was a one time thing, a website that states there was one Lion vs tiger fight lmao. There is none! A tiger losing to a lion would be like a lion losing to a leopard. Size does matter in fights, especially animal fights. Tigers have larger paws, brains, muscles, and body mass. What more needs to be said? Tigers specialize in one on one fights! Lions do not! It's much more political than one on one. Before you reply, please search for your common sense, it's missing. And provide a link with your statements. There are sites that think Lions would win,but they are very few in numbers.
