AllosaurusMember4115 XPOct-22-2017 2:16 PMAfter months of setbacks, I'm finally working on this dead series again. Today, we are pitting the two largest theropods of North America against each-other. Here are the previous fights:
Acrocanthosaurus atokensis
Length: 45 ft
Height: 15 ft
Tyrannosaurus rex
Length: 50 ft
Height: 18 ft
Fight!
Deep within a forest, a lone Acrocanthosaurus was walking. She was looking for food, having not eaten in weeks after she lost her pack to a Tyrannosaurus. The Acro spotted a lone Edmontosaurus, which did not notice her. She had the perfect opportunity to kill this animal; she charged, swinging her skull down.
Her teeth made their mark, as they clamped down on the neck of the hadrosaurid. The momentum snapped his neck, and the theropod quickly knocked him down. Satisfied, she began to eat, and dug her claws into the flesh of the herbivore.
As she was gorging herself, she failed to notice another predator approaching--one that was even larger than her. The Acro was abruptly picked up by her hunchback, and thrown into a tree. The impact shattered five of her ribs, and knocked the wind out of her. She gasped for breath as she looked at her attacker.
Standing before her was an alpha-male Tyrannosaurus rex--none other than the killer of her pack, Tyrannos. The Rex recognised the Acro--she was the only one who had escaped. He had singlehandedly slaughtered her pack in a fight over a sauropod carcass. The Acrocanthosaurus knew that Tyrannos was back to finish the job.
Almost immediately, she charged at him, blinded by her anger. Tyrannos easily sidestepped and clamped onto her neck, forcing a moan of pain from the Acro. The Rex tightened his grip, before letting go and shoving his opponent back. The Acrocanthosaurus slashed at the shoulder of the Tyrannosaurus and bit down on his arm.
This meant nothing to Tyrannos, who bit down on the arm of the Acro, and tore it off. She roared in pain as the Rex rammed his massive skull into hers, dazing her. The Acrocanthosaurus turned around and bit the tail of the Tyrannosaurus. It bled, but it wasn't enough to badly injure him. Tyrannos turned his massive body around and closed his jaws around the leg of his attacker.
He crushed her fibula, forcing her to collapse as he dragged her around like a rag doll. The Rex stomped on her torso, crushing three more ribs under the weight of his fifteen-ton body. She roared in pain as she attempted to run, but just fell down. Her tail smacked Tyrannos in the face, knocking out a few of his teeth.
Angered, the T.rex snapped his jaws shut around her tail, and tore it clean off. The Acrocanthosaurus now had no hope of escaping, and Tyrannos lifted her off the ground using his massive jaws.
He looked her in the eye one more time, before crushing her throat under 20,000 pounds of pressure. Having earned her kill, Tyrannos walked over to the corpse of the Edmontosaurus and tore into the carcass.
Winner: Tyrannosaurus rex!

AllosaurusMember3811 XPOct-22-2017 2:20 PMI mean it's not even a close fight. Tyrannosaurus' superior physiology allows greater agility IN ADDITION to the bite-force, smell, sight etc.
A rex could literally dodge a few bites from Acro, and then clamp onto the hunchback--break it in a few seconds, and the Acro is done.
Nice fight though.
Good grief.
StegosaurusMember934 XPOct-22-2017 2:39 PMVery interesting, Tyrannos.
Godzilla... Truly a God incarnate.
AllosaurusMember4115 XPOct-22-2017 3:17 PMGG I had to make the fight long enough--Tyrannos was merely toying with the Acro.
