I don't expect this to get much traffic because most youngins don't even know what Highlander is, but for the few who have actually seen the movies....
Battle takes place in an inescapable 50x50 foot cage. Last man standing wins.
**The contestants**
-Kurgan (from the first Highlander movie).
-Gen Katana (from Highlander II).
-Kane (from Highlander III.)
-Jacob Kell (from Highlander Endgame).
-The Guardian (from Highlander: The Source).
Standard weapons, etc. There can be only one!

The Guardian should be the most powerful of them all, but that movie sucked so much, I fell asleep, and never cared to finished.
Minus the Guardian, it should go like this.
Kane form 3. ****er had all those magic to help him supplement his sword skills. Connor had to forge a new blade to fight him.
Kurgan from 1. This beast was a straight power house that destroyed Ramirez. The same Ramirez at that time was only shadowed by the Kurgan. Also, at that time before more movies were made, Kurgan was said to be the most powerful Highlander. Connor and the Kurgan were also the last 2.
Katana from 2. Katana was good, he gave Connor a fight, but he was not that impressive. I liked him so well just because if Michael Ironsides.
Jacob from Endgame. Jacob sucked since most of his powers were him killing his own allies to get more power. I never felt he earned he them. Also, the reason Connor didn’t fight and kill him, was because Connor at the time was so tired from his immortal life, he purposely committed suicide against Duncan.
You should have added the Marcus Octavius from Highlander now he Quest for Peace. That film was ****ing phenomenal. I would say it equals the original, if not surpasses.
My opinion: The Guardian > Kane > Kurgan > Katana > Kell.
The Guardian was powerful, but he was also functionally retarded. That said, he was still stupidly fast/powerful and most importantly, had that protective neck armor that could outright block potentially lethal strikes from killing him. He's probably #1, but it's really close between he and Kane, imo.
Kurgan was just a badass, and "the strongest immortal" according to Ramirez/Connor. He actually had Connor disarmed and beat until Brenda interfered. If it weren't for Kane's magics, he'd be #2.
Katana was pretty meh, but he gave Connor a good fight.
Kell was obviously powerful, but he lacked the skill of Connor/Duncan. Seemed like the dude went around cheap-shotting immortals whenever he could, just to steal their power. Quantity over quality sort of deal.

Damn it's been so long since I've seen these. Nobody cares but my school mascot is a Highlander and it's a little dude with a sword. We fight for our grades.
I'm gonna have to YouTube these fights, it's been well over 15 years since I've seen them.
I'm all for remakes if they are done ok. I'm pretty guilty of enjoying both the first two transformers and the Ninja turtle remakes. I mean they are no Secret of the Ooze but I like em
