It's really hard to say, not knowing the size of that stump, and I'm definitely far from an expert at estimation of bear size, but just to throw a number out there I will say 220 pounds.

I see a skinny backside and a good sized head. I say 200 as is, 250+ on Nov. 1.

185-200.  His ears are rather large.  He looks kinda skinny in the first pic.  Not sick skinny just not a fat bear.  Very nice color on him.

 The bigger one is around 200lbs., maybe less. I agree with Michelle and Wea300mag, it is kinda skinny, especially on the back end.

The second is around 80#, 100# tops.
