"In this video Junior is more then 3 and a half years old, and those are still young Bboys. "
Junior was born in early 2012, video of his confrontation with Birmingham male is from 18 of August 2015 and that makes him 3 years and between 5 to 7 months old so about 3,5 years old, therefore I do not see isue with comparing him Nkuhumba Boy. You surely do not think Nkuhuma boy in this 3 months of difference will reach size of adult male don't you?
"You see him with other lionesess 3/4 months ago, and then he was much bigger then them, on this sighting few days ago you cant compare because others where lying down, with Avocas he wasnt been seen for more then half a year, so ofc that then size diffrence was huge. You cant judge him now based on pics from few moths to a half a year ago. "
I do not see size difference which I would call "much bigger". Nkuchuma Boy even now can be misstaken with lioness (althrough big, bullky lioness).
"Nguvu is exception"
I think it is exaggeration.
" not many lions are that big in those years"
Yes and those are the ones which we call big. By definition big lions are the ones significantly bigger than ordinary male lions and the ordinary size lion is what size is most male lions
"and thats not because of his genetics, yet because he was in smaller pride with greater food suply with no dominant males to chase him out early on, Junior Othawa is and will be big as Nguvu at that age."
I do not think that matters since we are judging purely resault (what size they eventually get into), Also of course food supply is very important, but it is not like it can be full excuse (I did not notice btw Nkuchmas having some problems with provading food). Take for example Mbiris, males coming from big pride, kicked from it at the age not even fully 3 years old and still growing into beasts.
"Im not saying that NK boy is bigger then random lions of his age'
Then we can agree on that. Ealier you wrote that he is big for his age which I interpreted otherway.
