Today Amahle is king of all sabi sands. All lion dynamics of sabi sands revolves around him only. 
He has largest share of females under his belt, most no. of cubs, undisputed king of sabi sabi, Umkumbe and londolozy. Has 3 powerful comrades to continue his blitzkrieg. He has all the potential to conquer much more land ( savanna,  chitwa chitwa and djuma) and many more prides ( mangheni, nkuhumas and talamatis). And on top of that, he is not even 7 ie has atleast 4 years of prime. 
So who cares if he is largest or not. 
I mean how is it matter that much. 
It sounds me like tomorrow we start debates on which lion has longest tail nhenha vs HB vs some other lion. 
Who has more moustache on his face etc etc. 
These comparision are neither cool nor funny. 
Please correct me if I am wrong.

-Amahle is around 7,5 years old
-He isn't the king of all Sabi sands, him AND his brothers are kings of around half of the reserve, not the same thing.
-most of lion dynamics revolve around all n'was, not only him
 For the rest I agree,  Nhenha being bigger than this or that male doesn't matter, it's just to satisfy some fanboyism

Nobody said Nhenha being larger was gonna make him the most successful lion who ever lived and what was said about Amahle certainly isn't true although the Nwaswitshaka are currently the most successful lions in Sabi Sands in terms of territory. Talking about Nhenha's size was atleast for me just appreciation of size. Same like with the appreciation of the size and look of HB Matimba. Obviously size can play a part in the success of a lion if it is to dictate dominance or a fight though in the lions world, confidence is just as crucial. What got me frustrated was people continuously denying his size as a way to say he was not an impressive lion. That's what gets me frustrated. I don't care if Nhenha is as big as the Shishangheni males and I highly doubt he is. I was just showing appreciation of the male lion that was Nhenha Birmingham. Reply
