Lion vs tiger

'''This is the biggest matchup in all of the Animal Kingdom, no matter how many fights and other stuff are recorded, we just can’t seem to find an answer. I have decided to give my opinion on this matchup, I will use physical abilities and other factors to help decide this. This will likely be my largest ever quora answer. So be prepared for a lot. I also will not use old accounts, because too many of them are biased and have no real basis. Intro over with, lets get into the biggest question possibly ever asked, in the animal kingdom.'''

So who wins?

The lion?

Or the tiger?

Both are 500 pound prime males, the fight takes place where nobody can run or hide, both are prime, healthy, and ready to fight.

''The lion has a much better “never give up” attitude than the tiger, it also is seemingly much more aggressive than the tiger. Tigers often run away and avoid conflict with even smaller animals. So realistically speaking, the lion will be more aggressive and more combative here. Also for people saying the tiger is the better killer, nothing I’ve seen really supports that, and lion fights often end in death a lot more than tiger deaths. So the lion is a much better fighter than the tiger, due to much more experience in these situations, meanwhile tigers avoid such conflict''
