ARENA:
Mt. Fuji

RULES:
Gwangi scaled to 18x45 feet
No Escape

VERDICT:
Honestly gonna have to go with Spinosaurus here. Gwangi may put up a better fight then the Rex but I don't see him doing much damage with his weak bite. Spinosaurus will probably beat Gwangi with a neck snap like he did with the Rex.

Spinosaurus 8/10
Gwangi 2/10

Spinosaurus explodes by Gwangi looking at him.


Nah, Gwangi could win this eventually. The Spino could have a chance in he manages to bite Gwangi's neck, but ol' Gwangi isn't going to be as helpless as the T-rex was. I could see Gwangi biting the Spino's leg if the Spino tried to snap his neck.

Gwangi 6-7/10
Spino 3-4/10

Spino's ONLY chance is to go for a neck snap, but given Gwangi's greater height and his ridiculously thick and muscular neck that's a small likelihood. Otherwise Gwangi just outskills Spino as a fighter and would eventually wear Spino down.

...Gwangi's height is 15 feet. Spino's is 26.

Just saying.

Gwangi's scaled to 18 feet tall You seem to keep overlooking meh rules

Anyways, I thought Spinosaurus was 20 feet tall at the head. His sail is around 6 feet so it makes sense, Gwangi won't be taller then Spinosaurus.

...I really need to remember to read those.

Yeah, we need to update Spino's height and length. He's 16 feet tall at the head, like 19 feet at the sail, and like 43 feet long. Not your fault.

It makes sense for Gwangi to be taller when scaled anyway, since he stands partially erect.

I have to lean slightly with Spinosaurus in this match. He has mobility, arm reach, and the motivation to stay in the fight as long as possible. Spino showed durability and strength when he ran right through a heavy-duty steel fence and when he he tanked that explosion/fire made by the flare gun in the river. Against Gwangi, Spino would probably be able to overwhelm Gwangi with his speed up close eventually. Gwangi, however, still has great defense and combat skills, which rival that of Spinos. His main disadvantage of this match is speed, which may influence the outcome of this match in favor of Spino.

Spinosaurus: 5.5/10
Gwangi: 4.5/10

Whoa whoa whoa. When exactly did Spino show more motivation to stay in a fight than Gwangi?

Against Gwangi, Spino would probably be able to overwhelm Gwangi with his speed up close eventually.

And likewise, when did Spino show superior speed to Gwangi?

[GodzillaXGomoraFight]

Spino did chase a group of people across an entire island in land and water despite obstacles even though he could have hunted something far easier and bigger. Spino also seems to run quicker than Gwangi, who's stance keeps him from going as fast as he could (Sometimes I feel that Gwangi just does a speed walk). Spino still has far better reach than Gwangi, something that the T-Rex he killed can relate to. Regardless of this, Gwangi can still attack Spino with his bite and a tail swipe, but how well would Spino cope with it compared to the elephant and Styracosaurus who were defenseless on their sides.

Gwangi had a near-dead Styracosaurus laying on the ground in front of him. What did he do? Chase a group of people through the valley. He even caught one halfway through... and immediately resumed chasing the others after killing him. He was so determined to get them that he caused a friggin' rock slide by trying to force himself through a crevice.

But that doesn't even matter anyway. Chasing bite-sized prey items doesn't show motivation to stay in a fight at all.

Spino also seems to run quicker than Gwangi, who's stance keeps him from going as fast as he could (Sometimes I feel that Gwangi just does a speed walk).

Gwangi caught a guy on horseback. He's not slow in the least.

And that's irrelevant, too, because running faster doesn't mean being able to strike faster in a combat situation. Agility and flexibility are much more important to that.

Spino still has far better reach than Gwangi, something that the T-Rex he killed can relate to.

With what? His arms? They won't do anything to Gwangi.

And greater reach had NOTHING to do with Spino beating the Rex in the first place.

Regardless of this, Gwangi can still attack Spino with his bite and a tail swipe, but how well would Spino cope with it compared to the elephant and Styracosaurus who were defenseless on their sides.

Spino can't defend himself much better from the sides than the elephant or Styracosaurus could, really. He's not very flexible. He also has the disadvantage of not being nearly as stable as either of Gwangi's opponents, both of which were quadrupeds. Gwangi's fondness of pulling on legs and bringing his weight to bear on opponents will be much more effective against a biped like Spino.
