Size matters here: a typical adult Sea Lion weighs about 300 kg (661 lb), roughly 2.7× the Bull Shark's 111 kg. Despite that, the Bull Shark's weapons and fighting stats carry the day.
The Sea Lion's best chance is its intelligence (78 vs 58), plus abilities like Current-Sense Vibrissae and Dive-Oxygen Management. This one is close enough that terrain, first contact and motivation could flip it.
Reality check: these two would never meet. The Bull Shark lives in water, so this verdict is a neutral "stat fight". In deep water the Bull Shark would hold every advantage; on dry land it could not fight at all.
