I'd put my money on Bronn, son of... you've probably never heard of him.

i would think khal drogo would beat jaimie but when i googled it last week people were saying jaimi. i think if jaimi and gregor fight i think jamie would win. gregor has no skill just raw power. baristan selmy said he can take down all the kingsguard at his age so im not sure how hell do against jaimi. my guess is either jaimie or selmy, prob jaimie?

I'm pretty sure that GRRM said that Selmy and Arthur Dayne were equals in their prime, with Dayne's sword giving him the advantage.

Considering Jaime only has one hand, I'm going for Barristan Selmy.

Funny, I was actually thinking about making this thread just a few days ago. I'd say Bronn or Syrio Forell, Although I dont know what happened to the latter (Im only at S2 by now) he was the literally the best swordman of his country and he managed to take several royal watch guards with a wooden sword which actually says a lot. There's no mention of Khal drogo being the best swordman, it just says he was a fierce warrior, but I dont think he could of done much against the hound or bronn or even jon snow, since we saw that dothrakis have issues killing armored men with their curved swords. And Jaime was easily matched by Ned, who, in his own words said that he was ot the greatest swordsman.

she is a really good knight but you gain more perspective on her abilities as the series goes on. one thing that isn't spoiler-y is that men are worried not just that they'll lose to a woman but that they won't win fast enough. this makes a lot of her challengers too hasty and she trains to outlast them and strike while they are tired. a patient person like ned stark or barristan selmy would be a bad match up for her. even jaime lannister, who isn't a patient man, would probably be a bad match up because he's normally in good shape (just not after being tied up for weeks on end).

tbh comparing her to Ned and Barristan isnt fair there both battle hardened veterans with years of experience its a shame you never got to see Robert fight the way they talk about him gives you the impression he was quite the badass in his day.

it's fair to compare her to anybody when the topic is "best fighter" :P

i like that you never really get to see robert at his best though. he's a buffoon and he does some terrible things, but you also have to pity him. a lot like with cersei, the attributes that help in gaining power don't necessarily help in keeping it.

Everyone else on that list lost to an opponent, (except maybe Barristan haven't read the books), death by stubbornness is really on the same tier.

The Young Wolf, he was captured. Also Brienne, but I'll cut him some slack since he was half starved and living in filth.

hygiene issues aside, i don't see him beating a knight. he doesn't wear body armor (or nothing stronger than leather, at least) and the slashes of his curved sword would be ineffective against the armor of his opponent.

I'm voting Gregor. I'd much rather go one on one with Jaime Lannister (hand or no hand) any day than face the Mountain that Rides.

Dude, Jaime held his own against her when he was chained and starved and out of practice for a year. I dont know if you play any sports but being away for a week is enough to seriously throw you off let alone a year.

Jaime. Dude was a freaking prodigy and got into the kingsgaurd through skill. Of the relevant characters as of the end of book four, I'd say the hound. Dude doesn't really fight super well known people from what I remember, but he did seem like he fought a lot.

Probably Jaime before his little accident. Now though I'd go with Bronn, Clegane is great but his fear of fire is a pretty big weakness, although him destroying Dondarrion even with his flaming sword proves he's a damn good fighter.
