While it is true that ants can lift objects many times their own size (such as a leaf), this is more the result of their small size than of being "stronger" than humans. If you've ever squished an ant, you'll know what I mean; if the ant was stronger than you, it would stop your finger. However, you're likely looking for the answer to whether an ant could beat a similarly-sized human in a contest of strength. Once again, the answer is no: scale the ant's size up, and it crumbles under the weight of its own body. Scale the human down, and you will find that they are also able to lift things many times their size (even moreso than the ant).

Stronger compared to its body size? Because in that case some insects may win. An ant for example can lift ten times its weight.

In absolute terms, the lion. But as related to body weight (i.e. pound for pound) the ant is much stronger.
