The tiger would win quickly. It is a killing machine. No fucking leaves,fruits or nuts for a tiger, just blood and guts. Now a grizzly vs a gorilla, there you have some controversy. No way, a grizzly would easily kill the gorilla, and probably the tiger too, they have claws that are worse than a cat. This is true historically. The Romans would pit 4 lions against a bear as "part of the show" in the gladiator days and the bear always won. A tiger would probably destroy a lion, though. Lion's are over-rated. Bears are impressive killing machines either way. My money would be on a grizzly against a tiger. I'd take a grizzly to kill just about any comer on the planet, heads up. Only a bigger polar bear would give me pause. |

the Tiger's first blow/bite would make a big difference, but big cats didn't evolve to where they are in the food chain by missing their mark

my brother (biology major) saw a big male gorilla get pissed off and crush a fully-inflated basketball between it's hands.
a big chimp is 5-6 times stronger than a man; a gorilla is 3 times the weigh of a big chimp. gorilla has two hands and a face full of fangs, plus primate endurance. a properly motivated gorilla could literally rip a tiger in half, given the right circumstances. |

If it was a smaller cat say cheetah or leopard, I would say Gorilla, but a Lion or a Tiger would completely fuck a Gorilla up.
Gorilla weighs up to 400 lbs (400 lbs would be a really damn big gorilla, they are pretty close to humans weight wise) Lion up to 450 lbs Tiger up to 570 lbs! Either a Tiger or Lion could easily knock a Silverback down and bite his jugular, fight over. I've never been in contact with a tiger, but I've been close to an adult male lion (he was anesthetized), and I remember his paw being as large as a good sized dinner plate, and claws being about the size of a finger. |

Quoted:
The top weight of a gorilla is 450 lbs. the top weight if a Bengal tiger is about 500-550 lbs. if they were both at top weight and males, barring a surprise attack, both would die. The tigers claws would rip the flesh of the gorilla, and the blows of the gorilla would shatter the tigers bones. Both have large canines, so both bites would be about equal. I give it to the tiger to win, but it would eventually die a short time after the altercation. Just a side note: leopards have been known to kill gorillas. Top weight for a captive Gorrilla was 638 lbs. |

On another occasion, "Suzette" registered a pull of 1260 Lbs while in a rage (same zoo)." I don't see a tiger having 1 hit KO ability. I do see a gorilla pulling pieces of the tiger off. |

The tiger fights to kill and put food on the table. Every Creature fights to survive, and like other omnivores (Bears) nature did not make them big and strong soleley so that they could get laid. IT occurred because being big and strong enabled thier ancestors to survive and reproduce. Evolution presupposes conflict. Gorillas evolved in an environment with Big Cats, more then likely ther evolution to a position of great size and strength helped somewhat in that regard. |

I think it all really depends on whether the tiger gets the drop on the gorilla, tigers are masters of stealth attacks. If the gorilla sees the tiger coming I think it may be another matter all together. I'm going with this. If the gorilla is unaware that the festivities are about to begin, he's fucked. |

If it's say some sort of strange happening in the wild and the tiger say stalks and pounces on the gorilla the gorilla is in trouble. If it was a situation where the gorilla knows the tiger is coming that's a different story.
Big cats use their hook shaped claws to hold on to prey then deliver a killing bite to the neck/throat. The X factor that the gorilla brings to the fight are opposable thumbs. If the cat doesn't get a very disabling or killer blow in quickly, the gorilla can grab hold of the cat and start breaking stuff. The other thing is gorilla's don't have a whole lot of neck/throat area, so maybe it would be harder to get a killing bite in. I'm torn, even if the gorilla throws the cat off, the cat should land and recover quickly allowing it to continue the attack. I'm gonna say the tiger wins most often, but if things don't go it's way at the beginning of the attack it's barely limping away or going to lose to the gorilla. |

A gorilla, easily.
If they are both aware, head-to-head, then the cat loses its best weapon: surprise. A gorilla doesn't need to bite, he just needs to get a piece of the tiger and rip it apart. Strength is not even close on this one. |

OP, you can test the theory on how a tiger would do with a wild alley cat.
First capture crazy ass alley cat and put in cage. Alley cat represents the tiger and you will represent the gorilla. Go into closet with cage and glass of water, pour water on cat through cage, turn lights out and open cage door. Whomever walks out beading the most is clearly the looser 
My vote, is alley cat would shred your ass into a pile of screaming girl so tiger wins. 
NEXT!

The answer is that a tiger would win if it is able to successfully surprise the gorilla and end the fight with the first attack. Otherwise, it would either retreat or die.

Going with a Tiger. Watched a documentary where some guy followed a tigress for 13 years and captured an incident with a new male in her territory. When they met up and got into it, it seemed like the video was put on fast forward about 3x-5x normal speed. Never seen a gorilla move that fast, so yeah Tiger FTW.

The gorilla manages to beat a cat half its weight, when he knows it's there. Now, imagine a cat twice its weight, sneaking in without warning. Yeah, short fight. The tiger would be Ronda Rousey to the gorilla's Meisha Tate. |
