Ser Arthur Robert Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 At some point I think Jaime mentions there are two or three people in Westeros who could give him a good fight, Barristan being one of em.What if we throw Robert and Rhaegar into the mix? (at their prime of course)He only said that in the show. Jamie of that bunch, Barristan in his prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 My money would be on the Hound, I think he's got enough anger towards his brother to rip him apart. I'd like Brienne's chances too, as everyone (except Jamie) would massively underestimate her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf King Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I think Oberyn was a more skilled combatant than people really even knew. He was well known for his love of poisons but, as she showed in his battle with Gregor, he can throw down with the best of them. Given that Oberyn was able to handle Gregor, I think that might vault him to the top any single combat list. I'd probably go with Jamie (with his sword hand) over Oberyn, but it would be an epic duel. Now, if we're looking at guys in their prime, I think Barristan Selmy may have been able to best Jamie. I see Robert as more of a Gregor type combatant, raw strength, not much discipline, so I don't see him doing too much. So, right now, I'd say the finals would be the Red Viper against the Kingslayer, with the edge going to the Lion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franz95 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Two-handed Jaime was still more of a tourney fighter, he preferred lances to swords. I think it would be Sandor. Out of pure hate for everyone in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric v. Melnibonee Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Sandor would win! He won the Tourney of the Hand (against Jaimie as well) and he would be smart enough to find a strategy against his personal Mountain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Hghar Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 But Belwas isn't good with horses and spears.The hero of Yunkai was mounted, Strong Belwas was not. And Belwas with his arrakh did him in for sure, so I see no reason why he shouldn't be able to do the same with either of the above mentioned. Sure, the hero of Yunkai was a bit of a swagging bravo but still we must not forget that Belwas' history is one of the fighting pits, i.e. he's probably fought more times where life and death was at stake than any of the others.Not to mention the fact that Strong Belwas is by far the coolest character in this whole fairy tale. Besides myself of course :cool4: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsay B. Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Robert in his prime would destroy them all. Seriously, the dude was a beast.I agree. I think he's underrated because we see him as a drunk at the end. Love the Robert's Rebellion extras in the blu-rays. Somebody make that a movie!!And that "dude" with a spear isn't some pushover but the mountain was definitely exposed. Red Viper was a beast also!!

hearmeroar92 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Drogo would probably beat all of them. Maybe Jaime would have a chance, but considering he didn t lose a single fight in his entire life Drogo is my bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nashman1 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Gotta say Selmy Barristan. Jaime considered Trant the most deadly of the kingsguard (because his eyes told nothing) and I believe somewhere it mentions Selmy beating just about everyone in previous tournies, including Rhaegar and Trant. However, Selmy wasn't really a tournament fighter. He was actually a warrior. That being said Rhaegar beat him at the Tournament of Harrenhal, possibly starting... well... everything. I think Selmy usually won tournaments and had more experience but I would put Rhaegar up there with him.He also states something along the lines of "if it weren't for my oath I'd cut through the 5 of you like butter" to the other 5 Kingsguard when he was let go for being too old. I have a feeling that wasn't just a threat and he actually could.I'd rebuke The Mountain of being in the top ranks. At The Hand's tourney The Hound steps in, stops his brother's sword, and his brother backs down. I'm pretty sure despite being larger the Mountain knows his brother is a better fighter.Btw, notice that not one King died while Selmy was actually present?I think Mance and Rhaegar may be kindred spirits, both with poet's souls, and love of music, and the ability to excel at everything they do. True kings in their own right. I think Mance might be up there with Rhaegar and Selmy.Oh, and Jorah had to resort to slave trading to pay for his debts since he couldn't win a tournament. Probably a very decent fighter and may have learned a few tricks from the Dothraki but never one of the best. Surprised no one has said Loras Tyrell. I wouldn't either. He freely admits his brother can beat him with a sword and he's more a tournament fighter. Good with a lance. He also has already been owned by Brienne.

ivor the swine Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 If GRRM was to write it, I suspect Jaime would probably win (with hand). But if I were there and betting, it would be hard to bet against Ser Gregor (pre Tyrion's trial). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lannister Hamster Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 The Mountain just as he's bigger and stronger and that would make a difference in a fatal 6 way.Ser Jorah didn't even beat Jaime in the tournament where he met his second wife. He even admitted that was the best he ever fought in his life, and only drew with Jaime after 9 jousts or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolex Baratheon Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Sandor Clegane. He is huge size+speed whereas Gregor is only huge size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
