I would think that would have to go to Loras now. They compare him to a young Jaime and Jaime is minus his sword hand.



Brienne is certainly better than Loras, so I'm going with a no on that.

In the books he wasn't using a sword in that fight, he was using a long axe and got beat by her. Even Jaime contemplates how great Loras could be but in the books Loras isn't arrested and he is a Kingsguard. He is a much more capable fighter in the books than he is on the show. The show managed to really gay him up and tone down his fighting abilities.

As for some of the other comments through this thread, I forgot this isn't just a reader's thread, a lot of opinions would be vastly different from the books than the show.
