Gorilla. Would have a much easier time getting around his opponent due to his athleticism.

ETA: I retract my pick. That's a pretty significant size difference that favors the Grizz.

quote:

This article states that a Russian miner in 1895 witnessed a moose drinking from a stream when a Grizzly bear approached from the other side. Moose are very territorial, and they are especially known to attack anything they perceive to be a threat to their water source. The moose charged full speed across the stream, and just as it neared the bear, the bear stood up and with a quick motion swiped the moose in the side of the face. The moose’s head became decapitated and flew a distance of fifteen to twenty feet.

I've always wondered how a rhinoceros would fare as well. But between those two, I'm taking the griz.

Grizzly. Gorilla has no armor/protection and grizzly claws are huge. Grizzly would shred him.

One aspect these questions always ignore is why are they fighting? It's not like they eat each other or fight for sport. Tell me who's go more to fight for, like one is defending their babies, and I'll tell you who wins, or rather who backs down first.

This isn't a matchup at all. The Grizzly would destroy it in seconds.
A Grizzly vs Gorilla is equivalent to Brock Lesner vs a Gorilla, where Brock is the gorilla, and the gorilla is the Grizzly. You'd have to be an idiot to not know who would win.

Grizzly bear and it's not even close. 10/10 the gorilla never even has a chance.

Animal death match would be the greatest show of all time. And I'm not talking about any of that animated bullshite they had on the animal planet a few years ago
