"The polar bear is a larger, but less robust creature than other bears.
Compared to the grizzly, it has a thinner, longer and more delicate skull, along with narrower forequarters. This streamlining is an adaptation for an aquatic life style.
The grizzly has a shorter, thicker neck, heavily built skull and more powerful shoulder structure. Despite being a good foot shorter, the grizzly has a trump card.
Their claws, having evolved as digging tools, are also unmatched at opening body carcasses. Claws of 6" aren't uncommon (9" record) while the polar bear has small hook-like 2" claws.
Sometimes, when the ice melts, polar bears have been known to be driven off by grizzlies, when they move south into the grizzlies feeding area. A grizzly will defend his barren ground patches jealously as he races to pile on enough fat for the end of summer denning."
There it is fellas.... Grizzly is the WEINER!!

I thought it would have been a closer match, but according to Ducks and Bucks the grizzly would win hands down, no challenge.

"Polar bears are said to take off a human head with one swipe. Polar bears fight other polar bears more often than brown bears fight other brown bears. They have a ferocious disposition. A witness in a Northern Manitoba Landfill Site said that polar bears won't back off from anything, while a grizzly bear would run away. One person says the polar bear is the most carnivorous bear (true) and would be protected by its thick fur."

I'd agree that they're more carnivorous than grizzlies and have a lot of protection from fur and body fat, but if they're both 1500 lbs and one's got more muscle than the other...
