Spartacus and Maximus vs Achilles

A little backstory: Spartacus frees Maximus, and Crassus sends Achilles to deal with them both, having been a warrior of incredible strength, Crassus thinks he can handle it.

Is he right?

Achilles would beat both, his skills are on another level from these guys, as good as they are

He never really had his skill challenged though, so by comparison, he hasn't done anything special.

he said Hector was the best he ever fought and yet he still had the significant skill and strength advantage when fighting him

Whereas Spartacus just got better and better, had people to challenge him, and eventually became the best fighter in the series.

Maximus, I don't even need to mention. Dude outfought a tiger and Gladiators while tied up and unarmed.

Achilles' easy slaying of the giant mountain like dude at the very beginning speaks volumes about how much better he is than everybody around him; he killed the guy in one precise hit, to me that a higher showing than anything i can think of from Maximus or Spartacus.

Also, Achilles has shown he can walk through armies with much better skill and ease than Spartacus ever did.

Spartacus makes this hard for Achilles. Spartacus has quite a lot of feats himself. Unsure at the moment.

Dude put the Egyptian on his ass in 15 seconds.

Again, what did the big mountain dude do that was impressive?

Killing featless leader's is pointless.

We saw what Spartacus' and Maximus' opponents were capable of, by the end of the series, Spartacus was a full tier above everyone else, even Oenomaus.

Achilles.

Demonstrated skill level when taking ths beach was above even 300 slo mo fighting. He is simply better than leonidas, spartacus, gannicus and maximus.

Dunno, I think that scene where Maximus strolls out and single handedly takes apart 6 to 8 Gladiators without breaking a sweat was pretty hard core... and more impressive than taking on just one hulking soldier.

Achilles took on an entire regiment when he stormed the beat of troy, leading up to the temple he killed at least 15 guys and did so very easily
