Leopards are one of my favourite cats. Punch well above their weight. Loners which are capable of destroying all sizes of dogs. Man is occasionally on the menu as well.

Amazing animals, I've seen them fend off a pride of lions and survive. The power they must have to carry prey heavier than themselves up a tree is unreal.

Have you ever read the book about the man eating leopard of Rudrarpayag by Jim Corbett. A J Hunter the well known African Hunter of the big five said he thought the leopard was the most dangerous of the big 5.

It's something people have always argued about. Your more likely to be seriously injured by a leopard but more likely to be killed by elephant, buff or lion. Most PH's killed in Africa have been by buffalo, most 'civillians' by hippo. Cow elephants come second for both groups. 

If a lion charges and gets through it won't let go until you are dead, a leopard will maul you, the PH and your tracker in seconds then be gone. 

I've rarely left Lancashire though so I know feck all, just what I've read. Nearest I've come to big game hunting is carrying my double .410 over my shoulder while hunting squirrels and imagining it's a .500 nitro express and pretending I'm on the trail of a wounded buff 😂

It was A J Hunters opinion and I read it was down to the fact the leopard could drop on you from a tree. Thought like you said certain death would be more imminent if you were attacked by those animals you have mentioned.

Leopards on average aren't huge cats, male averages are around 50kg, around the size of a large dog. 

Your right mate, piece of piss. Few dogs, tree it, wait for it to attack....then let it chew on one arm then punch it right in the ear hole with the other

No, they just tree them and wait for the hunter to shoot it, just like they do with mountain lions and bears in North America. Predators will usually try and escape conflict, it's in their nature.
