Mike Tyson once offered a zookeeper $10,000 in the hope that he'd let him fight a silverback gorilla. The legendary former heavyweight champion told the story of how his offer was declined on a day he'd hired out the entire zoo just for him and his wife at the time, Robin Givens.
Not a chance. Tyson was a great boxer, noted for his speed, punching power and skill against larger opponents. A male gorilla will weigh around 200kg (vs Tyson's 109) and has a longer reach. Boxers fight in weight classes for a reason.

MIKE TYSON reportedly offered a zookeeper £9,000 to let him fight a huge silverback gorilla during a romantic night out with his ex. The boxing legend became the youngest heavyweight champion aged 20 back in 1986.
Ultimately, we believe the odds are in the gorilla's favor. However, alone and at night the lion will have a strong advantage. If the lion can get in close enough and score an accurate bite, he could end the fight before it even begins. However, a gorilla is a mighty foe with more stamina and fearsome strength.Silver back gorilla is strong but a tiger is stronger . silver back ,no matter how strong,is only a herbivore and probably run off at the sight of a predatory/ hungry tiger/lion approaching. Big cats can easily take down preys 3to4 times their strength & size and are built for the kill .
How hard can a gorilla punch? It is believed that a gorilla punch is strong enough to shatter your skull with one slam of its arm:/Between 1300 to 2700 pounds of force. Gorillas on (avg. 400 lbs) have a muscle mass density almost 4 times higher than the most heavily muscled powerful human you know.
