Best Answer

The largest breed of saber-toothed tiger was known as a Smilodon. They would reach lengths of 4-5 feet and grow to 3 feet tall.

The sabre tooth or Smilodon, existed in three subspecies. The largest was as heavy as today's biggest tigers, up to 600 pounds. The others were somewhat smaller. Smilodon was only distantly related to tigers.

The sabertooth tiger, I would say. It was much larger, more aggressive, more powerfully built, and its big sabers can cause serious injuries on the male lion. But it is unlikely that they would fight as sabertooth tigers existed in america over 20,000 years ago.
