It was likely not the biggest specimen. In fact, it probably wasn't even close to its maximum size. Of course, we don't actually know for sure.

Seriously, this is an incredible mismatch in favour of the Utahraptor. Kaprosuchus only weighs around the same size as an American Alligator, also their teeth only seem to be suited for gripping than tearing. They were actually better designed for piercing deeply and causing deep skeletal damage through the combination of the animal's powerful bite force over anything. They were built like the teeth of tyrannosaurus: somewhat laterally compressed and designed for piercing without breaking. So no, they were designed for crushing and deadly puncturing, but not simple gripping. Even if Kaprosuchus does have slicing teeth, it is still way smaller than Utahraptor and has almost no chance in winning. This is a huge mismatch in favour of the raptor
