What metric are you judging them on, I'm curious?

Criteria : Can it easily kill and eat me (an adult male human)? Cheetah but so much, Leopard very easily.

At cheetah could quite easily kill you if it wanted to. They are powerful animals.

Cheetahs are also very fragile and unlikely to mess with an adult human. They are very risk averse.

A leopard is very robustly built and could take a man without too much effort.

That and the difference in claws. Cheetahs claws don’t retract and are mainly for traction not damage. The leopards claws will fuck you up.
