Based on fossil evidence, Smilodon (the saber toothed cat) probably had the edge over the modern lion, by weight alone, let alone those fangs. But Smilodon has been extinct for 15,000 year, making the question sonmewhat moot.

Who would win out of a race of a lion and a tiger?

A lion will probably outrun the tiger, if the tiger will chase a lion. Lions are braver so they don't run away from a fight. If they will chase one another, a lion will win a race. Why? Tiger is heavier so it has to carry more weight on him. Lions have longer paws and will easily outrun the tiger. a tiger runs 34 mph and lion 40 mph.
