It would have to be Hurin, who personally killed seventy trolls plus an unknown number of orcs. In the Silmarillion, after he throws himself into the sea, it says something like, "and so passed the greatest of warriors of the race of men" (not an exact quote)
After him would have to be Turin and Tuor, with Turin slaying Glaurang, and Tuor doing many things in the fall of Gondolin.
After them would probably be Elendil, Aragorn and Isildur.
