I feel like thr hippo just has a higher ring IQ. Like, rhino has got the nose but I think the hippo would just controll the pace of the fight so that it couldn't come into play

They don't, there's videos of them squaring off. The hippo opens its mouth and the rhino just sticks its horn in. I imagine neither is happy about the situation, as I wouldn't want to stick my nose in a hippo's mouth myself.
