The winner of the first two rounds fight each other. I take the grizzly. Tippy top of the foodchain outside of man imo.

I mean, are you talking about in the wild, operating normally (packs of lionesses taking down prey) or one on one with a bear?

I'd go with the silverback

Hemingway made a bet with some friends that a grizzly bear could take on an African lion. In order to prove it, he concocted up a scheme. He hired one of the Crandall locals to catch him a live grizzly. Being that this was in the 1930’s, there were of course no tranquilizer guns nor other easy methods to catch a live bear. So the hired fellows dug a very large and deep pit; threw in some attractive bait, then covered up the pit and waited. Soon enough a griz appeared and fell into the pit. The question now was how to haul the bear up, and keep him alive. One of these locals was an excellent roper. He roped the bear’s front and back legs, and after a lot of pulling, they got the bear out of the pit. They tied a rope around the bears neck, and apparently easily led the bear to a waiting cage. This poor unsuspecting grizzly was then transported to Las Vegas, where an African lion awaited him. The griz was led into the ring with the lion, and within seconds killed that lion. So Hemingway won his bet.

Bears weighing almost 2000 lbs are nearly impossible to kill without a firearm.

A full grown grizzly can weigh over 1,000 lbs and stand over 9’ tall. And it has these at the end of its paws...
It would destroy a lion with quickness.

Then afterwards, about 75,000 spiders crawled on the bear and killed it. Sleep well tonight.

Grizzly
Tiger
Then
Grizzly.
They both have weight. Tigers have the momentum. But big cats lack that Ursine, Canine, and Hominid tenacity. And the Grizzly fur is gonna save it the worst of those claws and strangle bite attempts.

On the islands locally they can get to 1,500, and on Kodiak closer to 2,000.
The coastal brown bears of the ABC Islands have some polar bear DNA. They can also run 30 mph.
