I just meant you'd need to take both animals out of their element and into a neutral one. What better arena than the wackiness of outer space? Of course, as soon as they started floating they'd freak out and forget to fight anyhow. Pussies.

Na see that was my idea to take them out of their natural environment and suspend them in the air :\ I suppose then you could make the lion wear a bowl of water on its head and tell them both to take a deep breath :|
Either way, Panda owns.

Hold their breath? In space, they'd freeze to death in a fraction of a second.

Holding breath in space is a bad idea because the expanding air inside the lungs would probably damage them.
A safer bet is to let the air leak out,
also you probably wouldn't get ripped apart because there isn't all that much force on the inside pushing out. Also the skin is probably enough to hold the body together.
No, you would probably lose conscieneness after about a minute due to lack of oxygen to the brain.
Bascially space is not a good idea without a space suit.

I don't think you'd even survive for that long, in like 5°K 
But I guess that depends on where in space you are.

It depends on it you're in sunlight or shade.
You wouldn't freeze instantly because the heat from your body has nowhere to transfer to, and your body insulates heat. You probably would eventually.
In the sun, you'd get sunburnt. Badly i'd imagine.

I wasn't going to get all scientific koz I couldn't give a crap, but just to clarify:
"The environment of space is highly dangerous without appropriate protection. The greatest threat is from the lack of pressure in the vacuum environment, while temperature and radiation effects also have a small influence.
Contrary to imagery in the public media (such as in the film Outland), a short term exposure to space of up to 30 seconds is unlikely to cause permanent physical damage. Thanks to the containing tension of the skin, the body will not explode, though some slight swelling may occur. Due to the lack of a medium to allow conduction or convection, loss of heat is by radiation only, which would take place in a very slow process. Therefore, there is no danger of immediately freezing.
Some physical damage may result if the victim attempted to hold his/her breath on introduction to the low pressure environment. In that case, a ruptured lung may result from the imbalance in pressure. Damage may also be done to ear drums, and the gastric system. Without the protection of the atmosphere, solar radiation, particularly ultraviolet rays may cause severe sunburn in a few seconds. After 10 seconds, decompression sickness may also result.
However, the primary threat is of asphyxiation. In the low pressure environment, normal gas exchange would instead cause the rapid deoxygenation of the bloodstream. After up to 15 seconds, the deoxygenated blood would reach the brain, and loss of consciousness would result. Death would gradually follow after two minutes of exposure - though the limits are uncertain. If actions are taken quickly, and normal pressure restored within around 90 seconds, the victim may well make a full recovery."
"The subject later reported that he could feel and hear the air leaking out, and his last conscious memory was of the water on his tongue beginning to boil."

Actions taken quickly? YOU'RE IN SPACE!!
"Uh, yeah, 911... We need an ambulance up here PRONTO. What? Oh, I don't know, maybe 15 seconds or so, starting from right before I called you. What's that? Why thank you, yes I get that a lot! Or maybe more like James Earl Jones, but it's still a compliment all the same. Oh.. yeah, he just boiled to death so forget the ambulance. So.... What are you doing Friday night?"
