How the hell'd we get here?

Today at work the money guy who talks to us about money for when we're not working by putting money into other companies came and talked to us about saving money by giving it to him.

Which brings up an interesting philosophical question:
If a bear that was twice as big as a normal bear were to fight a 3/4 sized tiger made entirely of metal, which animal would win? For arguments sake assume that both animals are of the same sex, and that the metal tiger could move, it wouldn't just be a statue.
