This is the first match of the second round of the Winners’ Bracket: Tiger vs. Hippopotamus. Information is taken from Wikipedia.
The tiger and the hippo will face off in a large, open area, with some patches of tall grass and a small, deep pool of water along one side.
Hippopotamus
A hippopotamus casually preparing.
The average adult male hippopotamus weighs between 1500 and 1800 kg (3,300 to 4,000 lbs) and is 3.5 meters (11 ft) long and 1.5 meters (5 ft) tall at the shoulder.
“Hippopotamuses are very violent-tempered animals. Adult hippos are hostile toward crocodiles, which often live in the same pools and rivers as hippos. This is especially so when hippo calves are around…. Hippos are very aggressive towards humans and are often considered one of the most dangerous large animals in Africa” (Wikipedia).
Tiger
The tiger awaits its battle.
For the sake of clarity, tigers will be represented by a male Siberian Tiger.
The male Siberian Tiger has an average length of 190-230 centimetres (75-90 inches) and weighs between 165 and 185 kilograms (360 to 400 pounds). Siberian Tigers prey primarily on wild boars and various types of deer.

I think tiger will win. After all, tigers can growup to 13 ft long, and they can kill wolves and crocodiles. Bears too. Bears make up about 9% of a tiger’s diet. Anacondas? Tigers can kill them too. Tigers reduce wolf and leopard populations
ur wrong
A hippo is slow, and if the tiger managed to get behind the hippo the tiger would just jump up on the hippo and rip it apart.
P.S. I work at a zoo so i know this stuff. Trust me
Tiger wins, they kill crocs in water, only animal to kill rhinos and elephants plus they can stand on hinds and box wit razor claws at least 15 blows a second, dont know any animal yet that can touch em
I love tigers, my favorite animal, but they would be no match for a full grown hippo. The max weight of a male siberian tiger is 800 lbs, vs a 4000 lb hippo. Hippo wins.
