Votesmall, have you been doing your research at all? In 2014 the legs of Spinosaurus had finally been discovered and it turns out its legs were very short for such a large dinosaur. Thanks to the short legs it was actually shorter than T. rex in terms of height. While its legs could support its massive bulk bipedally, they were not built for speed or agility. On land that is. It turns out based on the foot structure that Spino used its feet to paddle like a duck and likely used its long tail as a rudder while swimming.

If T. rex and Spinosaurus somehow could meet despite the massive distance in time period and location, it would be a battle where the environment determines the winner. On land the T. rex could use its superior speed and height to its advantage, but put the two combatants in the water and the Spinosaurus has turned the tables.
