If you scrunch the arm it always looks bigger.  I'm not disagreeing tigers have the stronger arms, I  actually have a  few photos, but captive lions generally have the mane covering most of the arm and all over shoulder, it is the upper parts of their frame where the mane covers that I believe they are stronger, the lower limbs appear to be for endurance, some triceps I think can tie tigers, but on the whole the tiger needs the stronger tricep to flex the forearm.  The lion needs the stronger back muscles and shoulders trapezius to move the humerus, swing the arm.  

Here is an Asiatic lion, I think its sort of semi wild captive not sure, notice the shoulder mass, the muscles over it are more developed, Supraspinatus, omotransversarius, which you can make out on many lions.
