O.K., lets think about this. Dwarves were designed by Aule to withstand the world as it was when Morgoth ruled it before the coming of the Elves, while the Valar waged a war to protect the Elves from Morgoth. Besides that the defining characteristic of Dwarves is their toughness, they can not even "fade" and become wraiths as other mortals can. Elves though tougher than Mortal Men are defined more by their agility, stealth, and so on. Surely a Dwarf would win a drinking contest.
