tiger:eek:
I would say tiger myself. But there was a show on discovery channel a few years back that pitted unlikely adversaries against each other. Using robotics and scientific knowledge of strengths and weaknesses of both animals involved. I forget what its called but a good show. Tiger vs. lion was one of the shows. The lion won that.
What kind of asshole puts lions and tigers in the same enclosure!?
Born & raised in captivity? The tiger, since it's bigger & slightly stronger.
Born & raised in the wild? The lion. Lions often fight against eachother & other predators, like hyenas. Tigers are solitary beings that avoid fights when possible (mostly because getting wounded means a slow death for the tiger since it can no longer hunt, a problem the lion doesn't have, since other lions will hunt & the wounded lion will still get a scrap of food).
The posted youtube video proves the first case, as these animals are born & raised in captivity.
The discovery channel program proves the 2nd case, since they went with animals born & raised in the wild.
The same idiots who put a zebra and a rather territorial rhino in the same enclosure...

But the question was 1 0n 1 , not 1 tiger versus a pride of lions
I was talking about 1 on 1 in the 2nd case as well. Please keep in mind that a male lion does nothing but fighting all his life (in the wild).

Apparently, it's the Lion.
Ive often wondered in a straight 1 on 1 fight who do you think would win?
Me personally I think a Tiger could whip a solo male lions ass easily
