It was most likely the Gigantopithecus ("giant ape"), an ancient cousin of the modern day orangutan. It is estimated to have stood 10 feet tall and weighed 1200 lbs. This size, however, is only an estimation based on tooth and partial jaw bone fossil evidence. Not even a partial skeleton has been found. This is needed to verify whether the ape was indeed this size. Gigantopithecus was no doubt larger than a gorilla, though. The largest teeth found are over an inch wide. This points to a creature of substantial size and strength.
