There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

I think when a male is by himself, he is obviously going to be less inclined to fight hard unless the intruder gives him no other choice. If he is part of a coalition, he is probably more likely to try and bully since he has others to rely on.

There is no evidence to back this, just an opinion. But examples can be used to contridict this for both lions and tigers, so like usual it probably comes down to one thing....
The individual personality of that particular cat.

I remember that documentary quite well, location was Ngorongoro crater and dark maned lion was called Moran, a single lion reigning a pride.
In fact, statement given in the documentary is exactly the same - single lion would avoid any sort of physical confrontation.  

I have been looking for information about that lion (Moran) because he didn't had any coalition partner and still had a pretty long reign.

Found the video clip:
