Two animals with very little information. Interesting

I think the pliosaurus wins due to its jaw structure.

Two animals with very little information. Interesting Unfortunately, I had to put it like this because Taipan is being fussy once again. I agree Pliosaurus likely wins. Larger and more robust jaws, plus sharper and longer teeth |

Pliosaurus Macromerus would win, it was over twice the size of the smaller opponent.

denisWell, not quite. Pliosaurus macromerus is actually 11 tons, while Rhamphosuchus is at least 7. This is by no means a mismatch

Actually Pliosaurs in general were way heavier than an Orca perhaps over twice their size. According to Kronos Rising Author, Pliosaurus Macromerus was in range between 38-40 tons, possibly more. Since Pliosaurus Macromerus had a skull of 9 feet and the body length was around 17-18 meters, I would have to say it’s likely higher than 11 tons. Pliosaurs, at least, the largest were very robust for their size. Also Kronosaurus weighed 11 tons, and Pliosaurus Macromerus was likely the largest species of Pliosaurs.

Well, unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case. Randomdinos has a good size chart, and Macromerus is Kronosaurus size. I will go get it.

I will wait for more info before posting my opinion. In the meantime this matchup is interesting.

I will wait for more info before posting my opinion. The Pilosaurus probably has a 30-40 percent mass advantage. Is that what you needed to know? |

Yeah not to mention, they likely rivaled the largest toothed whale in size, I mean they were the size of whales, some. Largest Sperm Whale likely weighed 50-65 tons. |

Well, Max Hawthorne thinks so that's for sure. |

Most likely twice the size of an Orca, but what we are all forgetting is that Pliosaurus like reptiles likely never stopped growing. Although they slowed down.

But the problem with crocs is that they would never grow as big as Pliosaurus. The reason why is because unlike Pliosaurus who don’t have gravity to keep them down crocodiles have to face the problem. Although Sarcosuchus was the largest crocodile, it was still smaller than Pliosaurus Macromerus.
