    Bear vs tiger

    Last night I read a thread on AskMen.com, it referenced the question, "Who would win in a fight, a tiger or bear?". So I ask you MMO-Champion community, who would win in a fight, a tiger or a bear?

    Stage, straight up fight, bear wins. Much more powerful paws, bears are unmatched in strength.

    Out in the open? Tigers are able to pounce and even break the spinal cord of bears. In Russia, brown bears occasionally are part of a Siberian tiger diet.

    It really depends on where the encounter happens, but I would go with a tiger if they were not forced to go face to face like a stage fight.

    I'm the only one who voted for tiger? Honestly, agility+intelligence > brute strength.

    I'd hardly say that a brown bear is the same as a Polar bear.

    So if it's a duel, the bear will win. But if the bear is out in the wild, doing his dailies or farming food for his cubs, and then the tiger ambushes the bear, the tiger will win.

    What polar bears? The OP has nothing about specific species.

    And polar bears are stronger animals in size, but brown and grizzlies have proven to be a lot more aggressive. Polar bears are not aggressive animals by default. It is the same reason why people used to have fights between lions and tigers, and lions would often win since they were a lot more aggressive.

    It is not about the size of the beast, its ferocity is also very important. I would go with a large brown or grizzly over a polar bear any day

    Yes. Bears are very strong and resilient, but tigers have enough to kill them. Tigers are not fighters, they are killers. Bears are a much stronger animal when faced head-on, I have read several articles telling how duels went with bears and other animals in the past. A bear is capable of crushing the skull of pretty much every single beast there is in one swing. They are the strongest, but when a tiger pounces them, they can fall easily. Big cats going for the throat are very, very hard to survive even for animals that are larger in size

    People withotu any knowledge of sciene / biology will always vote for the bear out of sheer stupidity.

    A siberian tiger will hunt down a bear, it's part of their nature to do it. So, A SIBERIAN TIGER will definitely will against a bear.

    You mean like the grizzly weighing almost double that of a Siberian tiger? or being able to crush it's skull in a single blow?

    My moneys on the bear, unless the tiger gets a good position i think the fights gonna go the bears way at least 7/10 times

    Both the Tiger and the Bear have powerful bodies.

    The Tiger is, however, stronger in proportion to his body size and weight.
    The Tiger is, also, alot more agile.

    The Tiger can easily trick the bear into using "My Neck in Your Mouth" attack.

    Only a sleeping Tiger will lose against a Bear.
