If the Fetts can keep distance between themselves and the General then I'm sure the Fetts can win this, though if they get too close Grevious very well could end them. Grevious seems best equipped to fight against Jedi in close quarters (even being bested by X1 and X2 while they were only soldiers) so I'm sure two of the greatest bounty Hunters in galactic history can do the same. I'd say, taking all possible scenarios into account (that I can think of anyway) that the Fetts would take a majority over Grevious.
Probably most of it yeah, but they do have their rockets and grenades which will do a decent amount of damage to Grevious. Plus, like I mentioned, X1 and X2 (who are far less well equipped than the Fetts) were able to drive Grevious back. Fetts have a huge menagerie of powerful weaponry at their disposal, even their vibro-weaponry would be effective against Grevious if they managed to get in close enough (one ditracting him and the other attacking from behind.)

They were also the best clones in the republic, and the sole trainers of all clones before the Clone Wars.

This is my first post on this site, so apologies for my ignorance. My only SW knowledge stems from respect threads and other posters' arguments. I only choose to comment because the opinion that the Fetts dominate leaves me a little baffled. OP specifies peak Grevious, which incorporates his showings in the microseries no? Grevious has shown the capability to scale walls with his speed and claw appendages, so I'm skeptical that the Fetts can out range him with jetpacks. Not to mention the setting is a dome, as in a setting with a ceiling, so it's not like the Fetts can out range him vertically without a limit. As Neph brought up, Grevious's durability is quite notable ( ILS has pointed out before his survival of a ship explosion, surviving a rocket point blank yadda yadda), so the Fetts' arsenal can't really touch him. Grevious has crushed a comparable duo pre-prime in the form of Durge and Ventress in that one comic, exhibited in ILS's respect thread. Not to mention in Boba Fett: A New Threat (I think), Grevious basically stomped Boba, although Boba was pre-prime in that depiction. There's also the fact that Grevious regularly deals with beings that move just as fast if not faster than the Fetts. Basically, I think Grevious stands a chance because he's faster, better equipped to deal with the Fetts than the Fetts are with him, more durable, and has taken on stronger opponents before and won. Idk how to reply (or debate for that matter), so this will probably be my only post on this subject.
If they work as a competent Mando team then the general dies hard. They split at the start and both distance themselves. He can only go after one, and that leaves the other free to send explosives his way and open him up to other attacks. Not saying its a cakewalk, but the Mandos have show themselves very competent against all types of targets in the EU, and I don't see this being the exception, especially in this scenario. As a team I just see it being too difficult a situation for Grievous to overcome.
Originally posted by darthbane77Its... arguable that Fett is superior to them.
true enough, but it still is good evidence to the Fetts winning, being that either Fett is superior to X1 or X2. Also, I swear I remember both X1 and X2 fighting Grevious in the game.
Maybe in blasters, but X1 or X2 destroy him in Melee Combat, imo.
They also had help from Mace.
Btw, X2 beat Boba Fett before his mission to Geonosis, it was in a ship battle though.
Thank you for the welcome trocity 😄. I'm more a lurker than a fighter, so I don't intend on posting too much, it's just that this seems like a topic that's easier to debate since non-force sensitives seem less complicated to discuss. No exponential power growths to scrutinize and all that. Anyway, the main point of contention I have with what's been brought up (some good points that have made me think) is the idea that the Fetts can really harm Grevious before he murders him. Grevious has:
- Tanked a city wide explosion at Belsus (source - one of those general grevious comics)
- Tanked a rocket to the face ( the Micro series)
- Tanked a ship self detonation ( TCW, Destroy Malevolence I think)
- Tanked Durge's electric weaponry and one of Ventress's lightsaber strikes (clone wars comic, dunno the name)
Grevious is capable of:
- Deflecting blaster bolts with his hands ( LOE)
- Not being threatened by his Magnaguards' electrostaffs (ROTS Novel and Movie)
- Dodging Republic gunship fire and missile barrage (Micro series)
Grevious has dealt with Mandos before:
- Slaughtering Death Watch commandos barehanded (SOD)
- Generally (heh) wrecking clone troopers whenever he encounters them with or without lightsabers. I know clones are no Jango and Boba, but they have Jango's genes and markmanship (microseries, TCW)
This post is too long, so I'll continue later, sorry for the wall of text. Shoutout to ILS, I stole all this info from his respect thread.
So what I mean to show is that the Fetts' grenades and rockets won't do much. Their flamethrowers would be useless. Their blasters won't mean much against a being like Grevious, especially with his lightsabers. If they get close, their liable to get slaughtered. Grevious has the speed to pursue them should they split up. Boba's beskar armor can pose a problem, and I can see the Fetts achieving victory in a few scenarios, but not the majority.
