Still don't agree with all these dinosaurs. But, that's me. Nothing new really. Just my honest opinion. Sure, all of these dinosaurs were heavy, but I don't think they would go in that order. This is my version based on the dinos you picked. 10. Saurophaganax(2.5-3.5 tons) 9. Mapusaurus(3-3.5 tons) 8. Acrocanthosaurus(3.5-4 tons) 7. Therizinosaurus(3-4 tons) 6. Oxalaia(4-5 tons) 5. Tyrannotitan(4.5-5 tons) 4. Carcharodontosaurus(5-7 tons) 3. Spinosaurus(5.5-7 tons) 2. Giganotosaurus(6-8 tons) 1. Tyrannosaurus(7-10 tons) Not being rude, just stating my opinion. Sizes based on my estimates

I agree with the order of your list. Nice job!

What about Tarbosaurus? Tyrannosaur about 36-40 ft long and 5-6 tons or so? [img]http://www.wikidino.com/wp-content/uploads/Tarbosaurus-learners.in_.th.jpg[/img]

I think that the top three should be Spino 8 tons, Giganotosaurus 9 tons, and Rax 9 - 10 tons. A d Tarbo was at least 6 tons.

I more or less agree. I do think Tarbo deserves a spot up there.

Well, Tarbosaurus was 4.5-5 tons, the less heavy in my ranking is 6.2t.

I don't know. Mostly everything I read says it was in the 5-6 ton range. Give or take a few pounds.
