I would favor the megalania here as long as its an average gaur vs a 1000+ megalania. Megalania has similar teeth to the komodo dragon and could slice into the gaurs leg tearing a tendon and causing it to limp and bleed out. Whether it has venom or not, the megalania would still be able to weaken the gaur with its biting method. Although the gaur could kill the lizard by crushing it to death, it wouldnt be easy due to the lizards size and armor, and once the gaur gets its leg mangled up, it wouldnt have the strength to do it. Overall lizard 7/10, but a large gaur vs smaller megalania estimate would turn the tables. Even a small megalania would do massive damage to a guar's leg and cripple it's mobility and offensive capability. It really only needs to get in a single bite to win, as long as it gets in one good bite on the guars leg all thats left is to wait and watch it grow weaker and weaker until it can no longer defend its self.

not to throw the rock at anyone's nerves do people really think a megalania will easily kill a gaur?

As for komodos killing water buffalos, the first bites were from ambush/hunting situations. For the video, you can see the buffalo is able to fending off a dragon. If the female buffalo wants to kill a dragon, she can do it easily in a minute. Megalania cannot be that quickly compared to their smaller cousins at that size but I think Megalania's size might offer some protection from a gaur and it has a chance to kill a gaur. LOL, you're a buffalo fan, the Dragon isn't hungry and doesn't have meaning to attack the buffalo, if the buffalo wants to kill the Dragon and the Dragon wants to kill the Buffalo, the Buffalo is dead in 2 minutes, the Dragon would rip the mammals intestines out and break the legs with it's lashing tail, and eat the intestines. Same as Megalania vs Gaur.

Yeah, I agree, the Komodo Dragon would kill any land animal today, from ants to elephants, all it takes is a bite and a tail slash. It could also eat the Saltie, Oras are the most ferocious land animal today. It's braver than the honey badger, stronger than a Lion and a Tiger, and scarier than a Saltwater Crocodile.

Its impressive that they can bring down an animal as big as a buffalo, but its not common and certainly the buffalo isnt fighting back.

Although I agree megalania has this in the bag, I cant support it over a salty or an elephant... and any of the big nine constrictors would eat ora for lunch.

this seriously isn't easy for megalania. being so low to the ground, it is in serious danger of being trampled and killed.

Komodos are very impressive predators but they have limits. Elephants, big crocs, lions and tigers are all too much, in fact the only animal of what you listed the komodo would kill regularly is the honey badger.

And you're a fish fan, a Buffalo usually fights back, but the Dragon is still to dangerous for the Buffalo, so buffalo loses.

Komodo Dragons are known to kill pygmy Elephants and Crocodiles. The Elephant I'm talking about are asian ones, not the African ones. The dragon could kill the African one, but it would take a month or two.

These matches are based on situations where we assume neither contender may flee for unspecified reasons. 90% of these conflicts would result in one or the other opponents fleeing...pretty boring lol. Often mutual deterrence or a party fleeing will be acknowledged. A party fleeing is what would be required for a dragon to kill an elephant. Long term effects of envenomation and hemorrhaging could ultimately lead to success. However in head on conflict even far deadlier venomous contenders must bow to the mighty elephant who could crush the competition regardless to a painful death that may follow.
