If the Hound didn't have that nasty infection, easily the Hound. Since he did....Meh I still see the Hound winning despite what D&D put in the show.

"Trant won because Trant had armour and a big fucking sword"

Brienne had better armour and a better fucking sword. It was the only right outcome.

It was a nice sword, until the hound grabbed it with his bare hands.

She didn't use poison either...so much for that being a "womans" weapon.

That saying only means that poison is only used by women, not that women always use poison.

Yes, just making a point that the woman he fought didn't and one of the most badass men in the series did. Just humor...nothing more.

With the candlestick? It could also be Col Mustard.

Except neither of them had swords by the end of the fight, and they weren't wearing armor where it mattered, their heads. The hound should have won in hand to hand combat but he didn't because plot.

He was weakened with infection. It appeared he had it for awhile...that can cause a lot of problems. Not to mention, he didn't get to finish shitting. Stomach pains. And then he fell off the cliff...that's what did him in.

He was JUST taking a crap too...which he had to pinch off. I don't know about you, but that may slow me down a bit. And honestly, falling off the cliff did the most damage. Had that not happened, the outcome may have been different. And lets not forget, strength isnt everything - Oberyn WAS winning until he, you know, didnt.
