Pygmy Hippo's "Hobo Fights a Big Cat Except It's Fairer" Edges

Weapons:The Spear is longer and somewhat durable but considering a leopard broke it, Simba should be able to do the same. Granted this isn't easy as the Claws and Teeth still have a significant reach disadvantage but they're less likely to break and every attack will be lethal while Tarzan needs to stab with the stone head to kill. I'm going to say two weapons is slightly better than one here although this could go either way. Edge:Simba

Physicality:Both are incredibly powerful but arguably Tarzan is stronger as he can lift at least 518 pounds while the only thing that beats that for Simba is the zebra and lions don't lift their whole body while dragging them. Tarzan takes speed due to dodging gunfire while Simba takes durability for actually having feats there. Maneuverability is better for Tarzan in the jungle as well but not in the Savanah as mentioned and this is where we get to a stalemate. Edge:Tie

X-Factors:Tarzan takes Experience and Intelligence while Simba takes Mobility and Stealth. I've already discussed Mobility before and Stealth only really helps in the beginning but I don't see Tarzan being taken off-guard so his Experience and Intelligence will help more in the long run. Edge:Tarzan

Final Verdict:I'm going with Tarzan in this fight due to his experience against foes similar to Simba and his physical attributes being slightly worse or better than his foes. Simba is a dangerous opponent but his lack of decent weapons outside close range and has no real tactics besides hope a sneak attack works and if it fails, just charge and pounce until prey is dead. Tarzan will definitely not leave this fight without some nasty wounds but I can see him sticking to his preferred environment and wearing down Simba with smarter strikes until the fatal blow.

Winner:Tarzan
