hurin and turin

[ecthelion]

Who do you think would win in a fight between these two men. Hurin is said to be the mightiest of the warriors of mortal men. But Turin has Gurthang and used the Dragon-Helm of Dor-Lomin. Honestly I cannot decide.

If we're talking a fight to the death, you'd have to take their relationship into consideration. Could either of them kill the other and thus win?

Or are we talking sword-fight. Wrestling match? Bar-room brawl? :smokin:

A sword fight to see who the bigger man in the family is will do.

Bigger man? Ai! Wasn't Turin a fair bit bigger than Hurin? Could be wrong.

If so, then I'll go for Turin as he has extra leverage.
