Please be more specific. There are various species of buffalo that weigh differently: Cape Buffalo from Africa average around 1600 lbs whereas the Water Buffalo of India only average around 1000 lbs.
The average weight for a full grown male buffalo is 1600 pounds, but they may weigh over 2000 pounds. Females normally weigh 1000 to 1100 pounds.

Standing 5 to 6.2 feet (1.5 to 1.9 meters) tall at the shoulder, wild water buffalo are formidable mammals with sparse gray-black coats. Males carry enormous backward-curving, crescent-shaped horns stretching close to 5 feet (1.5 meters) long with deep ridges on their surface. Females are smaller in size and weight, but they also have horns, although they are proportionately smaller.

Is a water buffalo different from a buffalo?

No, they are two separate species: Cape Buffalo are from Africa and possess the scientific name Syncerus caffer and Water Buffalo are from Asia, with the scientific name Bubalus bubalis. Cape Buffalo are also larger and more muscular than water buffalo, and look quite different from Water Buffalo. For instance: A cape buffalo's horns come together at the poll and curve out and up on either side of their heads. A water buffalo's horns grow more to the back of the animal. The Cape Buffalo can also bellow like domestic cattle, along with a series of other vocalizations. Water buffalo only make grunting sounds.Please see the related links below for more information.
