In both scenarios, whether it'd be a Spinosaur or a Tyrannosaur, they're arguably a lot more experienced than the I Rex off the fact that they had a lot more room and opportunity to run around and probably hunt compared to the I rex, who was crowded in her enclosure all her life.

Also, Spinoaurus' neck is more flexible, added with the fact that its longer skull is meant for general grabbing, as a dino that hunted on land and in the water, the Spino is more likely to land a bite. Also, with the Irex's jaw being so flexible, it can be assumed that its jaw lacks the crushing bite force that the T rex is known for.

The claw and arm aspect pretty much cancels each other out.

The biggest downside for the spinosaur is its spines. But given its roughly equal weight, I rex won't be able to simply knock it down or on its back. I feel like the Indominus would be able to realize that the sail on the Spinosaurus is part of it, rather than a decoy and could rip it off of the Spinosaurus (Their sails weren't strong. In combat, it was primarily used to make the animal look bigger) and cause severe bleeding, which would result in a quicker death, if the Indominus hadn't finished the Spinosaurus off after its roars of pain.
