Who do you think would in a fair fight between... (Spoilers)
...Abby and Joel. I think they're the two most capable characters in the whole series but I think Abby wins out due to her training. Joel is stronger but relies on brute force more, Abby is clearly well trained in actual fighting styles so I think she has a slight edge.
To make it interesting lets say they're both at their peak aggressiveness, so Joel is ten years after Sarahs death when he's a ruthless hunter and Abby is just about to leave for Jackson when she's consumed by the need for revenge and is in her peak physical condition. It's a fair fight without guns but they can use whatevers lying around (bricks/ bottles)
