The main subject is that 7-8 years old tiger didn't died because of boar. It was already very sick tiger.

I think tiger can take down big male boar without really serious trouble. There is a video of 16 months old small tigress killing the big male boar. Another video of tiger is hunting huge wild boar, but boar escaped. I seen captive South China tiger is killing the big size male boar. Think of tiger is taking down larger cow, buffalo, crocodile, and gaur. There is a record of tiger hunted the rhino (This is extremely rare case). Jim Corbett saw 2 tigers are hunting elephant together. Those animals are larger, stronger, and more dangerous prey than male boar.
But anything can happen like tiger is losing in battle. In this case, there is one Korean guy in 1950s. He beat up the 2 meters long Amur leopard with bare hand. This is nothing different.

There are several records of tiger hunting rhinoes and elephants.
