A while back, I recall you asked me for a size chart depicting T. rex with Giganotosaurus/Carcharodontosaurus using my own estimates for the latter. If you are still interested, GetAwayTrike has done that. Here it is with Sue and SGM-DIN 1 (it should be important to remember that SGM-DIN 1 is in all likelihood not the 'Sue' of Carcharodontosaurus, but rather an average adult instead of the largest adult in a sample of >30 as Sue is).

Awesome, at the average size I believe most large theropods are about the same. Around 10 tonnes and 12 meters long or a little bit more.
RE: Size comparisons - DinoFan83 - 01-24-2021
I do not agree with 12 meters (in all cases below it would be at least somewhat longer), but 10 tonnes or more is a fairly plausible average of known specimens for a number of theropods as far as I can see. By my personal estimations, known specimens of Spinosaurus are probably well over that (>12 tonnes), the 2 Giganotosaurus specimens could plausibly be up to 10.3 tonnes average, Carcharodontosaurus might reach the 10-ish tonne area for average of known adults given CMN 50792 as well as SGM-DIN 1 possibly not being an adult (page 3). Not to mention there is at least 1 species of Allosaurus that has an immature 9-10 tonne specimen (whatever the species of AMNH 5767 is, I can link the source if you wish).
