Tuor or Turin? If Turin, I think at that point in the book he is only 17 and not yet in the fullness of his manhood. I wonder if Hurin had not convinces Turgon to withdraw during Nírnaeth Arnoediad, could Turgon have matched his feat? Or could have Hurin called out Morgoth to a duel and matched his feat?
The greatest of the Noldo Lords are said to be the tallest children of Illuvitar. The Noldo are said to be strong of arm and powerful of build, gifted in both craft and war, so that has me leaning that as great as Hurin or Turin were, they couldn't match a Turgon, Gil-Gilad, Fingolfin, Fingon, Argon, Maedhros, Rog, Glorfinedel, or Echtellion in feats of arms. That they are just a level of being above even the greats like Hurin, Turin, or Elendil.
