The one-on-one fights we’re most looking forward to in Game of Thrones season 8
By Erik Stanton
3. Jaime vs Bronn
Long ago, Jamie Lannister was one of the most feared swordsman in the land. But ever since his sword hand was lopped off however, his fighting skills have plummeted. Still, the man has learned to adapt and has shown that he can still deliver pain with his other hand. Plus he has a Valyrian steel sword.
Bronn, on the other hand, has always been a great warrior. His name may not echo throughout the Seven Kingdoms, but those who know him respect his skills and hold him in high regard.
Throughout the show, Bronn has worked for both Jamie and his little brother Tyrion. He’s on friendly terms with both, but the sellsword Bronn has always been in it for the money in the end. Jaime promised Bronn a castle and didn’t come through. After this “betrayal,” Cersei Lannister decided to step in and hired Bronn to make her an only child.
Bronn’s fans are probably hoping his conscience wins out, assuming he has one, but this showdown is still brewing.
If it happens, who will win? Jaime has gotten better at using his off-hand and is the more important character, but his skills are far below those of the sellsword.
