COLD HARD TRUTH ABOUT REX VS SPINO

Like I said on your Fansite, I disagree with some of this. 

Weight study by Andrea Cau puts Spino at 55% Rex's weight. Another study states that Rex may have had the highest bite force ever, but certainly highest among land predators. Rex is tougher than you have it credit for when you say if anything gets a hold of its neck it's screwed (Rex skeleton with healed bite mark on back of head). 

I edited the 10-13 tall thing for you BEFORE someone else found this and gave you crap for it.

yes i know wen i realized i also posted on DD forum i was like oh no i better go change it then wen i was reading i was like whoaa someone changed then i saw ur reply and i said "this guy is always watching out for me"

I am a Rex fan but it could be a fair fight. Both dinosaurs have their advantages and disadvantages. The thing that annoy's me is that after T-Rex lost one fight with spino and everyone assumed spino was better and stronger. Don't forget that the T-Rex pushed a ford explorer over a cliff, two trailers over a cliff, tossed a raptor into a giant skeleton, chased a jeep and withstood crashing into a tree, and it did put up a good fight against spino and was also the biggest star of the first two jurassic park movies. Even though spino was a bad ass in the third movie I believe that Rex is better and hopefully in jurassic world we may see another fight between the two and see who is stronger.

We will never which one is tronger, I mean come on, they are EXTINCT.

I don't agree with some things, but it's always good to see other people's opinions.

I would say what I think Spino was and how it acted, but I think it's safe to keep it to myself.

you want to know the "cold hard truth"? this has been done to death on this forum. With myself, and others writing out the fights as they might play out. Spoiler, the rex wins in most. Mr.Happy had a thread similiar to this. Here. RexFan also has a good thread on it.

Your point on Rex's tiny arms....Those arms can lift and hold around 600 pounds or so. Mr.Happy is also right, Rex has healed bite marks on the skull:

Spino got the nick name "the pharaoh" mainly because it was found in Egypt.  Beingthe largest theropod in the area, there's little question to why it got the nickname. Not ' to keep spino fans happy' as you stated.

Your numbers seem to be a tad bit off.. As mr. Happy said, Caus study put spino at roughly 55% the weight of rex. I cannot count how many times i've had to state this on the forum, But spinosaurs were light weight in general. Not particularly massive animals. 8 tons i would say on average, particularly large animals reaching 10. Speed can be judged for Rex, not so much for spino. They haven't even found leg bones yet! 

I'm just going to say this BEFORE this topic gets out of hand.

Everyone stay calm. He's fairly new, he doesn't know about everything that's happened yet. He is more rational than a good chunk of Team Spino, so give him a chance.

I second that Mr.Happy. Now, based on your theories STK, I HIGHLY doubt a banana could beat a Tyrannosaurus. (I HAD to post that.) Rex would PROBABLY win, but for me it depends on the dinosaurs' sizes and the enviorment. Let's say in a swamp, an adult Spino vs. a sub-adult Rex, Spino would almost definately win. Vice versa with the individuals and in a prairie, Rex would win. We'll wait 2,000 years for time travel to be possible and then pit them together.

(The Pharoah FTW!!!!!)

Are you doubting the power of bananas?! Blasphemy!

The main reason why rex wins most fights is because most people like Rex more.

Actually, we believe Rex had an advantage over Spino.

If it was sheerly by what dinosaur we liked more that determined the outcome of a fight that we are writing, Albertosaurus would have won DD9097MS, because I like Albertosaurus the most out of the MS competitors. I could have had Albertosaurus take out Torvosaurus, I could have had Daspletosaurus win, but instead, Torvosaurus won the whole thing because it had an advantage. 

In DD9097SS, I could have Utahraptor kick ass the whole tournament, but he lost to Deltadromeus because Delta had the advantage. 

Exactly... Rex fans beleiev Rex had more advantages, and Spino ans believe Spino had more advantages.

Dont go off belief. Belief is what started the first war of this... 

Use the scientific theories we have... Right this moment on both species. Not the theories you came up with to make a creature forged from both hell and heaven, seem better and, More tank like then it truly is.

Well I think imagination is better. We get to IMAGINE what Spino/Rex looked like! But we can't use our IMAGINATION as FACT.

Staff, make it a RULE that no one can post Rex vs. Spino fights and debates...

Imagination, Is the best thing ever, Never, never never never, let anyone tell you otherwise. However, It can get out of hand in an argument. Sure, Spino with feathers... Why not. But, You begin stating how short rexs arms were, or how tall spinos sail was (By fact) You'll cause a major ripple effect...

I enjoy Imagination. Nothing against it. Just dont try and use it in an argument about Facts, Use it when your portarying what rex would look like on the plains of the arctic.

Slow down their a tad 401. 

I think I can Do a little something about this.

Yes. I said to NEVER use your IMAGINATION is FACT.

Sorry, I misread. 

It's okay, I do that sometimes, too.

well... as the debate kept coming, we never knew who's win because :

1. Spino and Rex were Separated in billions of kilometers of fast oceans

2. as Raptor 401 said, they are all EXTINCT

3. it's only a Movie, so it was only a fiction

Am I Right, guys...

Raptor, there is unfortunately no way to stop people from posting Rex vs Spino, but as moderators, me and Rex Fan (Rex Fan and I to be more correct), can lock topics, which might slow them down enough until they get the message.

honestly, i'm tired of seeing this kind of post. i know you're new kid, but we have more of these then we can count..

and actually  rex arms could lift up to 100 pounds not 600 yes i know this is dead leats just say i like bringing things bak from the dead

and i NEVER SAID ON THE HEAD OF REX I SAID IF ANYTHING GETS A GOOD GRIP OF REX'S THROAT ITS DONE i never said the head

1. Like with everything else in paleontology we can't determine the strength of Rex's arms that exact, but most scientists put it at 300-700 pounds.

2. If Rex get's a good grip on the throat of Spino, he's done aswell. For that matter, if anything get's a good grip on the throat of anything, it's done. What's your point?

that i never said head

I'm just saying that it's wierd to say that it was a disadvantage for Rex but not list it as a disadvantage for Spino and I don't think that it's even worthy to list as a disadvantage, since that goes with every single creature.

i know like i sadi three times before i forgot to edit it

Oh, I see. Excuse me, I didn't realise.

hey i have a problem ok i dont know how to edit i mean like seriuosly like at my grade nine english marks i dont know the slightest thing about grammar and i cant spell

The cold hard truth is that this discussion has been done to death. I regret to inform you that I'll be closing this topic to keep the peace. I'd suggest you steer clear of these kinds of discussions in the future.
