To be fair though, you need to include Moore, Dalton and Brosnan.
Well, we'll assume that they were taken out in this order:
Moore 1st
Brosnan 2nd
Dalton 3rd
That would leave Connery, Craig and Lazenby.
I'm certain that Craig would prevail as his Bond is shown to be a highly competent, extremely well-trained agent (which I think is a necessity in this day and age). That even more than the shape he's in would be in his favour, all well as his tenacity and refusal to give up.
As for second place, that's hard to say. Assuming Connery is in his prime (only fair as Laz and Craig are, even though Craig is ten years older that Laz and Connery when they started!) I rewatched the famous FRWL train fight. Connery's got great brute strength, but so does Laz. But I think that the flurry of fists and kicks that Laz would unleash would overwhelm him. Hard to say as Connery is my favourite, but there you have it.
I think we're all agreed that Moore wouldn't even be a factor... ;-)
Connery and Craig get into it, it's a clash of titans.
Dalton and Lazenby start throwing haymakers.
Moore looks at Brosnan, smiles, offers to shake his hand and resolve this conflict in a gentlemanly fashion. Brosnan smiles and offers his hand back, as he receives a knee in the crotch. Brosnan is down.
Moore then looks at the crows, decides he can take on the smaller Craig. He goes behind him and starts holding his arms. Craig headbutts him with the back of his head. Moore is down. Craig is stunned. Lazenby and Dalton are still in a fierce battle, no clear advantage, seeing Craig down though they more to finish him. That's when Connery karate chops Dalton in the back of the neck. Dalton is down. Lazenby moves in on Craig who suddenly jumps on him with a front choke. Lazenby can't counter the surprise attack, Lazenby is down.
Connery and Craig look at each other, Connery offers to exchange blows one after the other. Craig throws a vicious right to Connery's mouth. Connery stumbles, but survives. Connery then takes a few steps, karate chops Craig in the neck. Craig is down!
Connery > Craig > Lazenby > Dalton > Moore > Brosnan
BUT.
If we're talking about the actors themselves, then good god, Lazenby would own them ALL!
Between NSNA Connery and AVTAK Moore on the other hand, Connery will throw his urine specimen at Moore who will then narrowly miss it. Moore will then retaliate and punch Connery in the face. Connery will then lift Moore up by the waste but Moore will get in a cheeky jab in the ribs. Connery goes down, Moore wins, gets his Viagra and goes to bed with Tanya Roberts ;)
*In reality Connery would probably win but Moore deserves to.
Furthermore, this Actor even does some of his stunts, and most of all he's an elitist in his field. In my opinion, he's overqualified for the Bond Franchise and I would actually want to see him in Epic Movies that would show his best acting talent.
It's always interesting how the loss of context changes the way we view old movies.
The slap wasn't that convincing with Moore doing it. (OMG Moore the woman beater :O ) ;)
