SoST Round One: Bronn vs Strong Belwas - Page 2 - Science Fiction Fantasy Chronicles: forums

Bronn is nothing short of a killer. The men you bet on in these bouts are always, always those that do not mess about. Belwas is great, but he would not last against Bronn. The whole point of Bronn is that he is everything a knight is not, and prepared to think on another level when it comes to fighting - he would figure out Belwas weakness and exploit it, just as I believe he would have taken down Gregor Clegane (and there are not exactly many people in the whole series you would give a chance to against Gregor, one on one! I wouldn't give a fig for Briennes chances of beating him, or Balon, or Arys)

he is a killer yes, but i still do not see him win from Gregor.
The Viper was winning thx to his spear, and that is a weapon i do not see bronn using at least not expertly

Bronn is a surviver.

Bronn is nothing but a coward and a cruel sellsword and would never enter such a tournament. Go Strong Belwas!!!!!!!!!

Summery of the two.

Strong Belwas: He and Barristan the Bold first met Dany when she was given the box with a scorpion in it. He is a Pit fighter. Been a gladiator for most of his life. He lets each person he fights cut him accross the stomach or chest before he kills them, so that he knows how many he has killed. He fought a killed a champion of some city that Dany sacked.

Bronn: He is Tyrion's sellsword. He was in the inn when Catylen had Tyrion arrested. He was one of the few who surrived the trip though the mountians to get Cat and Tyrion to the Erie. There he was Tyrion's champion and fought and killed a knight.

Both are undoubtably great fighters.

Feel free to add more that I left out.

My only argument really in favor of Belwas, is that Bronn now has something to lose. Before he was a sellsword trying to survive day by day. Now he is a lod with land, a castle, and some booty. That is why he chickened out of the fight with Gregor. A book before, and bronn would have gone up against the Mountain in a heartbeat for the security and fame it would have brought him.
Don't get me wrong even now I would spit on his boots in a bar, but I gotta go with Belwas.
