   Guest bio: John Danaher is one of the greatest coaches and minds in martial arts history.

2. It would be between the Gorilla and Bear

3. Shaken off??? He will get torn off… 🤣🤣

4. The bear battle was grizzly vs polar bear. 🐻 vs 🐻‍❄

5. The toughest thing a bear takes on is another bear. I think that changes things. Grizzlies fight each other all the time, and those fights are vicious. John Danaher is totally wrong about that. It's not theatrical at all. They may not kill each other, but fights are long and intense. A lion would not survive a fight with a grizzly.

6. "A female tiger destroyed a lion" back to talking about lions and bears lol. WHAT ABOUT ZEE TIGAH!

7. A bear can kill a lion. Lions run from honey Badgers so a bear running from a wolverine doesn't mean anything. Bears also fight other bears. A lion doesn't fight anything close to a bear.

8. Or the bear would crush the lions spine, as it does with much larger animals than a lion that it can not pin down.

9. John sounds like a scammer.

10. Tigers eat bears. And in most fightS where they were pitted against lions they almost always won. A tiger is more muscular than a lion and has stronger back legs. Tiger can stand up and box while the lion can only swing one paw at a time. Tiger also hunt the biggest cattle there is, guar and have been known to kill elephants. ALONE!

11. Use this comment to reply with your answer BEFORE watching the video

12. Now imagine if they smoked weed and had this conversation……..

    It would be the same conversation! 😂

13. YOUR GUEST DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THAT EVERY ANIMAL ON YOUR LIST FIRST LIVE ON DIFFERENT CLIMATES,HAVE DIFFERENT ENEMIES,FOOD AVAILABLE TO THEM AND THE DIFFICULTY ATTAINING IT. YOU SHOULD ONLY LOOK AT THE FACTS HERE . WHO HAS THE BETTER WEAPON,THE SMARTS TO USE IT AND THE ABILITY TO USE ITS ENVIRONMENT TO GET MORE. LIONS,TIGERS AND BEARS OH MY ARE SIMPLY ACTING ON AGGRESSION,HUNGER AND PAIN. GORILLAS IN THE OTHER HAND CAN OUTSMART A LION,TIGER AND BEAR.BY USING ITS INTELLIGENCE . WE KNOW THAT ALL THESE ANIMAL ARE DANGEROUS BUT US HUMANS ARE MORE DANGEROUS THAN THEY ARE BECAUSE WE HAVE THE SUPERIOR BRAIN. SAME WITH THE GORILLA.ALSO IF YOU WOULD CHANGE THE ENVIRONMENT ON THESE ANIMAL'S THE GORILLA WOULD ADOPT BETTER TO ITS CHANGES. GORILLA WOULD WIN ON ALL THESE FACTORS. IN A FIGHT GORILLAS WOULD USE EVERY STICK,ROCK,TREE AND BITE TO KILL AN ATTACKER.

14. Only one thing was not mentioned and that is the magic potion of lions: adrenaline in their veins giving them super strengths, that is called evolution

15. Bear has gotta win!

16. They all win, it's called existing at the top of the food chain

17. You guys didn’t mention the Siberian tigers and the brown bears in Russia who predate on each other at times.

18. Lion is made for fighting, tiger for hunting, and Gorilla? I think, if a Gorilla was trained to be a warrior, would be really badass fighter

19. I really enjoyed the breakdown and reality based facts being shown here, especially with it being such a silly question in the first place as it just doesn't happen.

    Correct me if I am wrong here please lol, but I don't remember the Tiger being deconstructed, just briefly mentioned in Roman times.

    I am utterly saddened like Lex too as I adore Silverbacks and I have always thought that they would do better than that in this debate hahaha.

    The only advantage for the lion I see between against a tiger is its experience in the field which is immense.
    But surely the Tiger is everything that the Lion is, just bigger, stronger, faster.

    Therefore the Tiger must on an average destroy a Lion wouldn't it?

20. Thank you guys, I enjoyed this conversation so much, like no other.
    I remember when I was a kid asking my father all the time who would win between this and that (I believe we all did it) and I wish my father would've gave these kind of answers 😅😅😅
    One thing though…none of you guys mentioned the tiger in these fights or the Siberian tiger, which in this case the debate would've ended very quickly.

21. Bears fighting orcas in the water

22. Pound for pound
    Wolf 🐺🐾

23. Bear beats Lion, Lion beats Gorilla.

24. Bear beats Lion.
    My rationale: a tiger beats a lion majority of the time.
    Bears beat Tigers majority of the time.
    Bear would beat a Lion.

25. Bear beats lion imo. A bear can beat a tiger, so it can for sure beat a lion.

26. Imagine being coached by a guy who’s so clear and concise in his thought processes. Dream

27. great ending

28. I'm pretty sure a fully grown male Grizzly at 900 pounds would easily kill any lion. I don't care if my 9 year old brother has a kitchen knife, I'm still volleying his head clean off.

29. Only thing that can kill a bear would be a hippo, rhino or elephant or maybe elephant seal. Bear kills everything else.

30. a Lion doesn't even belong in this conversation lol

31. "He can't do a double leg, he's got four fuhcking legs." 😂😂

32. that guy is so boring, when he finally finishes to ask the question, after what seems an eternity, I'm too bored to even care about the answer.

33. My money is on the Bear. Had this conversation in a college class many moons ago.

34. I'm taking the eagle over any animal

35. This was super interesting. Had a blast listening to these smart dudes talk about this legendary topic.

36. polar bears fuck up some bad ass sea mammals

37. bears can kill each others.

38. I would like to see a Grizzly vs. a Rhino. That would be something.

39. that last part about gordon vs a grizzly or a lion was so hilarious 🤣

40. When I comes down to it whoever can compartmentalize fear and ignore pain will win at that level. All those beasts have the tools to win, mind power is the separation

41. The bear could probably take both animals at once. It’s way bigger than either and has much more endurance than any big cat. The grizzly bear is the most dangerous animal walking on land. Gorillas aren’t even carnivores and don’t really have a place in this fight.

42. Imagine a gorilla with extreme human intelligence wait that’s gorilla grodd 😒😒

43. 22:05 "There's a bunch of bitch ass gorillas walking around" 😂😂

44. I have died and gone to podcast heaven! More Danaher, Lex.. More!

45. Grizzly would win one on one. Their skin is made to be bitten so unless it was a Saber toothed cat. It's the Grizzly all day. Unless the gorilla is capable to be a completely overwhelming brute. Idk tho cause a 1k lbs claw swipe that can break a tree in half yeah they win. They are forgetting the most important thing is a Grizzlies skin is too think. So even if the lion has advantages it would still lose as they would be mauled to the pij t of in effectiveness. They don't have to even kill

46. This man is a serial killer.

47. Wolverine beats em all

48. Really good chat !!! i hardly ever saw Lex so natural and spontaneous. he found the element !!!
