I reread the duel the other day, still felt like the Viper was going to win.

He had the fight won. And someone with his experience wouldn't have been that careless to get within The Mountain's reach.
But for storytelling reasons, he had to lose to set up:
- Mountain confessing to the crimes before everyone assembled.
- Tyrion being condemned, being freed by Jamie, killing Tywin and running off across the narrow sea which developed his arc tremendously.
- Robert Strong
-The Prince of Dorne finally putting his plans in effect as to Danny and now young Griff.

they better make it soooo much better than Dondarrion/Hound. I liked their fight, but Viper/Mountain has to be epic

We've seen Gregor in action twice, against Sandor and Oberyn, and he really got outfought both times. His strength and reach and incredible tolerance for pain, (augmented by his addiction to opium), make him fearsome but he doesn't seem the sort to ever be diligent in the practice yard. For that matter who would willingly train with him? He's slow, stupid, and prone to uncontrollable rages. I don't really rank him that highly among the great fighters.
