Is there any alien that have ever been shown in any game or movie that could take down a Xenomorph pound-for-pound?

Rules are, no demons, no magical, psychic or mystical beings, no mutated creature(in short, they must be natural, or capable of reproducing similar offsprings instead of simply being a freak creature), no technology. We are assuming the 2 alien creatures to be fighting naked.

The alien creatures are also fighting face-to-face in an arena, so no relying on the terrian or stealth.

One creature you might use for example is the Hydralisk from Starcraft, or the aliens from Independant Day for example.

Do remember these things about a Xenomorph, and that this is a pound-for-pound battle.

1) Incredible Strength - An adult xenomorph carried a 300kg Predator with the tip of its tail alone

2) Agility - Xenomorphs have been observed to dodge attacks or bullets. Ripley Clone 8 with part of the alien's DNA had so much improved overall awareness and agility, she was able to make a perfect 3-pointer more than 1/2 the court away while backfacing the hoop without even trying

3) Armored Skin - Xenomorphs are capable of withstanding small arms fire or regular slashing attacks(even a Predator weapon that should have clean slice off an alien's head left nothing more than a non-lethal deep slash) or even direct contact with liquid nitrogen. Also, the alien's skin cannot be hurt by acid

4) Acid Blood - When slashed or injured, aliens bleed acid on the level of highly concentrated molecular acid with no known material able to resist it. Aliens can also spat the acid with their mouths

5) Weapons - Aliens have razor-sharp teeth, claws, tail and an inner mandible able to pierce through metal with ease

6) Fearless - Aliens do not, and have never shown any signs of fear

7) Cunning - An alien is incredibly cunning, and can learn quickly, as displayed by a xenomorph that used a prison's liquid nitrogen to freeze a guard by pressing a button as the xenomorph had previously observed other people using the button

8) Lack of weak spots - Since aliens do not have a visible nose or eye, they do not have the same facial weakness as other creatures, and yet they know about such weakness as shown from an alien that attempted to claw at a Predator's face after pinning him down

An Ultralisk, perhaps?

-Bigger than a tank
-Can take tank shells and keep on killing
-Can destroy bunkers with ease
-Massive tusks/spines which he uses as weapons that cut through bunkers (with ease)
-Regenerates his health
-Is awesome.

You do realise that the nids are just a xenomorph rip, right?

I don't see how. Their defining traits are nothing like Xenomorphs. The three big ones are chitin armor, six limbed, and symbiotic weapons. The movie aliens don't have any of those traits. I'd like to think of both as being badass and original designs.

Going by design concepts (symbiotic weapons aside) they are very similar.

Sandworm:
-While vulnerable to water, an acid that strong couldn't be aqueous.
-They produce the poison that gives life.
-Enormous enough to swallow small armies whole.
-Vulnerable to only the greatest physical assault.
-Cavernous seas of teeth lie inside.
-Move swiftly through sand.
-Devastating upward swallow.
-Even if the acid works, it's M.A.D..

Ultralisks and Sandworms were indeed extremely powerful.

Unfortunately, this is a pound-for-pound battle so pit them against a similar size Xenomorph and they are gonna lose real badly.

An Ing Hunter from Metroid Prime 2 might do it. They live in a dimension that has an extremely harmful atmosphere, and are capable of flight. They are quite nimble lettimg them dodge fire from weapons and missiles, along with the ability to become intangible if needed. It takes a lot of fire power to take out a Hunter Ing even when using their weaknes against light. The Hunter Ing have no discernable eyes, ears, or any other sensory organs.

Hunters attack by slashing out with their four razerblade like tentacles which are also fully extendable. If they want, they can attepmt to possess their opponent, which only creatures with a very stong will can resist. They are about the same size as the Xenoporph.

I'm not sure about that. Even at the same size, the alien isn't half as durable as the Ultralisk, cannot regenerate, and doesn't have massive tank/bunker-crushing tusks. It's also just as fast in attack and movement speed as anything the alien has ever seen, if not faster.

I still give it to the Ultralisk.

Goku and Superman

Doesn't Goku have psychic abilities? Albeit exceptionally minor ones? There's one point I remember which I unfortunately don't know if it is canonical or not.

Beginning of the Frieza saga, while Goku is in hospital, he uses TK to levitate water out of a glass. Chi Chi comes in the room, he loses concentration and it spills on his head.

Problem is, I haven't read the manga around that point, and that's precisely the type of thing they'd make filler out of.

That scene was filler. However, Goku is a low - level telepath, and Superman knows Tourquasm - Vo, so they're disqualified.

Therefore I say a sand worm from Dune.

No, non-canon

That's all filler
