The average weight of male Bengal tigers is from around 435 -500 pounds. Tigresses weigh between 295-335 pounds. Males average 9 and a half to ten feet in length, and tigresses eight to nine feet.
Some Bengals are very much larger than this, with some males from the Terrai and Nepal weighing 600 pounds or more.
The length of a tiger has little to do with its weight. A long tiger may be more slender than a shorter, heavier cat. A male shot in Uttar Pradesh in 1976 weighed nearly 595 pounds, but was only nine feet two inches in length. Compare this to a male shot in 1956 in the same region which measured nearly eleven feet in length, but weighed only 498 pounds.

Who would win a fight if black bear and Bengal tiger fought?

Depends on the experiences and age of each animal. A bengal tiger would usually beat an asiatic black bear in a combat, but an american black bear would stand more of a chance. American black bears are bigger in size compared with asiatic black bears, and a very big male can come across a small female brown bear, in which siberian tigers prey on. Asiatic black bears can weigh in size from 150 pounds to 440 pounds. American black bears are 200 pounds to 650 pounds. Bengal tigers weigh 450 pounds to 620 pounds. Even though the american black bear and the bengal tiger lives in different continents, the weight and size of the american black bear over a bengal tiger would make the american black bear dominate over the bengal tiger.
