You have probably already done it, but this is a really bad idea, just for the record. At least you are using the drawbars.
I have done a similar thing to test the pulling force on two of my own tractors, but they were set up so no operator was on the tractor, and they could be placed into neutral remotely.
My bet is on the B3000.

Just a heads up on what can go wrong.

WOW if you look closely at the end of the video once the green tractor fliped over you can see the operator rolling out of the way of the tractor. And the idiot on the red tractor was looking back and should have seen things were going south and STOPED!

It's probably not a great idea, but with that set-up nothing is probably going to happen, the physics of the set-up won't allow it. The pull is in a straight line below the center of the axle, as either tractor would rear up the draw bar force will pull the front end back toward the ground and neither of those machines has enough HP to create enough wheel speed to allow the machine to wheelie and tip over rearwards if the chain breaks.
BTW the 'bota wins. The drawbar looks to be fractionally higher than the Allis, so if that's the case it will unload the rear tires on the Allis taking away its traction.
The nitwits in the video have the chain hooked at the top link location (or near it) above the axle line. A no-no nomater what you're tugging on.

Kubota B-3000 won hands down, and it went off without a hitch... and I won five bucks.
and you are correct about the pull location.
