Already addressed. If you know absolutely nothing about how cats fight (like Tigers), then this appears as though the tiger is overpowering the lion.

However, if you educate yourself for literally 30 seconds, you will realize that this lion actually bodied that Tiger. The lion didn’t go to the ground because the tiger overpowered it, the lion went to the ground because lions are ground-based grapple fighters, they fight by going to the ground, grappling, and attacking with all of their limbs and biting at the same time in a brute force display of full-body aggression. You can even see the tiger jump away with the lion claws it in the face with its feet lmfao.

Since the tiger doesn’t know how to fight, the tiger remains on its hind legs and starts slap fighting like a high school girl, ineffectually throwing out nothing attacks while the lion challenges the tiger to fight it in a way that other lions would fight it.

The lion immediately realizes that the tiger doesn’t know how to fight, so what happens? The lion gets back up on its feet and starts pushing the tiger back repeatedly using a brute force offense, to which the tiger is severely overpowered and pushed back, since tigers are shit fighters and can’t match the power of the lion.

The lion immediately loses interest and turns its back on the tiger in an extreme display of disrespect as it realizes that the tiger poses zero threat to him.

Literally yall are exposing that you, like tigers, know absolutely nothing about how predatory cats actually fight. I have three house cats, one who fights like a tiger and one who fights like a lion. The one who fights like a lion, despite being smaller, bodies the one who fights like a tiger 10/10 times lmfao.

But males will fight and kill each other as a means of their life style. Tigers avoid each other. So if we're looking at an animal that's more experienced in fighting something its size or bigger, it'll be the lion.
I mean the same can be said for those tigers in the Roman colliseums, and combat is instinctual for predators. They need to know how to handle themselves if they meet another tiger and there is a fight.

So youre talking experience vs better raw stats here.

Clyde Beatty, a renowned wild animal trainer, documented instances where lions would overpower and even kill tigers in their performances. A Reddit thread discussing this topic details that Beatty lost 12 tigers to lions in his career, while he never lost a single lion. In a live performance, a lion was documented killing a tiger in front of the audience, and Beatty recounted how he had to intervene to stop the fight.
Key points about Clyde Beatty's experiences with lions and tigers:
    • Lion dominance:
      Beatty's extensive experience showed that lions often dominated tigers in their performances, with lions killing tigers more frequently.
    • "Roll-Over" tigers:
      A Quora thread discussing Clyde Beatty's knowledge of big cats notes that some tigers would "roll over" when confronted with a lion, suggesting a natural fear or deference.
    • Film evidence:
      Beatty filmed scenes of lions and tigers fighting for the movie "The Big Cage," where 3 lions ultimately killed the 4 tigers they were paired with.
    • Lion's ability to dominate:
      Beatty emphasized that male lions, particularly a lion named Sultan the First, were consistently victorious over male tigers in their performances.

Were those wild tigers or bred in captivity.

Slightly better physical abilities versus an animal that, as apart of its growth cycle, must kill an older male. And then spend the rest of its life killing young males trying to take its pride.

A male lion is a navy seal, a tiger is a bully in comparison

It’s AI lol but Clyde Beatty is infamous in the Lion vs Tiger debate. The man said his biggest expense as an animal trainer was the amount of tigers who had been killed by his Lions. He also claimed that in 28 years he had maybe seen one lion be killed by a tiger but had lost many tigers to lions.
