RHAEGAER TARGARYEN VS OBERYN MARTELL

VS

Both meet on a highland field in moderate darkness

both fight to their maximum potential and will kill

Rhaegaer has his armor, sword and sheild

Oberyn has armor and his poisoned spear

fight won by death, or incapacitation

Rhaegar wasn't really anything special

The red viper wins

We only have second hand testimony as to Rhaegar's Skill. The Red Viper we actually have feats for.

That's not true at all. According to the people who knew Rhaegar...he was a very skilled Fighter. He Defeated Ser Arthur Dayne at the Tourney of Harrenhal.

A joust is not a real fight. As confirmed by jaime it is more horse riding then something else
