Matchmaker What's the strongest dinosaur an unarmed regular human could beat in a fight?

No guns, no melee weapons, and no armor, just straight hands. The dinosaur has to exist in real life and could be from the Triassic to the Cretaceous period. The human will be fighting the dinosaur in an open field. Battle to the death. Whats the strongest dinosaur a human could kill without any weapons?

Humans aren't designed to fight without weapons, a chicken sized Dino with teeth and claws is going to make a mess of a human.

Ive seen humans wrestle other humans.

Ive seen humans wrestle bears.

Ive seen humans wrestle gators.

Chicken sized dino gets deep fried and dipped in BBQ sauce 10 times out of 10 mate.

Maybe a malnourished spectacle bear could be hurt to much and retreat without the shock that usually "defeats" bears. Yer even those have an additional layer of protection you don't and claws to tear you apart.

But yes, a 10 year old girl can kill a clawed chicken.

I've killed a wild turkey with my bare hands after dropping 30 ft out of a tree on to the back of my head, and I've thrown a possum about ten feet. Teeth and claws aren't a cheat code when you don't even weigh 15 pounds.
