Originally posted by FrothByteNo, it would be more fair to make them both completely naked and unarmed. That way they can only depend on their own personal prowess to win. That's as fair as it gets. 👆
Which is why the best way to make this fight fair is to simply give each combatant a single sword. Period. Now discuss.

Or you could give them both armor...
Either way Sandor walks her down, takes a few bug bites and snaps her neck.

[B]That wouldn't be a fight, that would be assassination. [/QUOTEAnd 5 foot tall Arya vs 6'6 Sandor in full plate with her very short rapier is futile because she could only target his facr and maybe hands. You cant have it both ways. [/B]
Uh, no. That's how Arya PREFERS to fight.

Quick point.... When was Needle ever made of Valyrian Steel? Didn't Jon actually... ya know... have the sword made by Mikken the Winterfell Blacksmith for Arya?

Never. He's either honestly mistaken or outright lying. Dunno which yet.
Well, not like it was hard to research. Took me less than a minute to find this.

You can believe she wins I was just pointing out factually inaccurate statements.
It's not a matter of belief, its a matter of who is a better fighter, which CLEARLY Arya is.
Sandor is a good fighter, but he doesn't have a chance here (If Brienne didn't had one, then why should Sandor).
Evidently Brienne is a better fighter than Sandor.
So again. Arya>Brienne>Sandor.

Brienne isn't a better fighter. The Hound was weak due to the infection on his neck.
And Arya didn't beat Brienne either. You clearly see that Arya had the advantage because Brienne was going easy at first, doubting Arya's ability. Once she got serious they stalemated

To be fair, the only "kill hit" of the entire encounter was delivered by Arya, who stopped just short of Brienne's neck.
Here's the fight: YouTube video
We see Arya winning in the beginning due to Brienne not really taking it seriously. She thinks she'll curb Arya so she basically goes "half speed". After Arya gets her once Brienne picks it up a bit. Arya gets her again and this is where Brienne gets serious. The next exchange is more intense and Brienne come out on top when she kicks Arya. As we can see by the look on her face, Brienne thinks she went too far and is concerned. Once Arya gets up the fight continues. Arya gets disarmed (a win for Brienne if they had one weapon apiece) and pulls the dagger to continue. The fight ends in a draw.
Important things to remember here are: 1. Arya was serious from jump while Brienne wasn't. 2. Brienne could have ended the fight after the kick had she not been concerned for Arya's safety.

Lol. Both Arya and Brienne were on "training mode".
Arya wasn't fighting seriously neither. She had this mocking smile on her face all battle long.
Sandor isn't to the level of Brienne. Brienne is above Sandor.
Sandor isn't even considered an elite fighter. So no, he loses to Brienne of Tarth.
Arya is too fast, and too good of a fighter for Sandor to have a chance.
