Many sites claimed African lion avg height  is 4ft and Asiatic 3 ft ..... just google. Anyway,i take gujira data/tables as genuine and so all lions height is nearly same.

2.Africans lions fights are most probably fun fights, i rarely saw serious injury marks on them unlike Asiatic.

3.Regarding 'mane',it is just like peacock-train, females are attracted by it.Yup, mane is testosterone and health indicator and heat generator too.

You'll see serious marks all over African lions and you'll Asiatics with little marks and vice versa of course.
In regards to "fun fights," lets be realistic... You really cannot show me more than one or two images/videos of Asiatic's in a fight, let a lone stories of coalitions killing off males in a systematic fashion. You can of course say that there are 1000s more African lions than Asiatic Lions and that's why there may not be as many stories but you could use that same excuse as to why some African lions don't have scars and others do.

Most importantly is this, the GIR is 545 sq. mi, compare that to the Serengeti which is 5,695 sq miles, which isn't even the largest park in Tanzania, do you really think that this small pocket of lions who are extremely protected and isolated can really outmatch that many more lions elsewhere?
