"NO way a tiger kills a hippo with one bite to the neck"

Agreed, but I was envisaging the tiger only getting close when it could dodge to the back and attack from there - several times. he can definitely severely weaken him with one or two of those. My thinking is simply that a tiger is about 1000 times more agile than a hippo. It's like Liston/Ali - everyone thought Liston would steamroll Ali with his heavy punches, and he could move pretty well himself, but he just couldn't hit Ali and got creamed. I don't see that a tiger is going to let a hippo trample/bite him.
