Who would win if Matthias fought Cluny in a real fight, without Matthias chopping the Joseph bell?

Matthias
Cluny
Both Die

Although I hate to say it, Cluny would definitely win. He's stronger, bigger, and way more experienced. The only real obstacle Matthias had beforehand was Asmodeus. That said, Matthias was totally in the right by crushing Cluny to death with the Joseph bell.
My, that sounds rather brutal.

I think Matthias would win. He had the Spirit of Martin the Warrior to help him. As BJ says, good always wins.

Basil chuckled. "What's the matter? Isn't your own head good enough? No, I don't suppose it is. Ugly-looking brute, aren't you?" -Basil to Cluny the Scourge (Redwall)

As Wot said, welcome to the forum, River! :) If ye want, you can introduce yourself here: http://redwallabbey.com/forum/index.php?topic=177.2745

Speaking rationally, I would honestly say Cluny. Not that Matthias isn't brilliant himself, but he didn't have the experience that Cluny had as a legendary warlord. The thing Wot said about the spirit of Martin is an interesting point, though.

Thanks, MatthiasMan, for the avatar!

If Matthias and Cluny had fought at the time of Mattimeio, when Matthias's skill had improved and he had a much more even head on his shoulders, I think he might win against Cluny.

I suppose Cluny would win just because he only had to wound Matthias once to finish the fight. Unfortunately for him he was standing in the perfect spot for a bell to fall on him ending the fight rather suddenly.

I would think that the battle in the Belltower was a fair fight where both Matthias and Cluny could both use their advantages easily and use the enemy's disadvantages against them.

I personally would say that Cluny would win.

Sad Face. World Depressed. Redwall Crumbles.

I know, but it was just too hard for Matthias, as Cluny was too experienced for him.
Just a quick word, but I cannot believe that my thread is on the front page after 4 or 5 months of no me. I'm happy over the moon.

Not necessarily. If Matthias had not beaten Cluny, either the otters with their slings would have taken him down, or Constance would have had some time to vent her anger on him.

well, it is hard to tell on the internet.

I do think Cluny would win, like others said. He has the poison tail, which he could use to poison Matthias, and he is far stronger. Matthias didn't have much experience then as well.
"Look at 'em blubberin', Song,' Dippler whispered. "Bet you can't start everybeast weepin' by singin' somethin' nice and sad?"...There on the rocks of the sunlit island the young squirrelmaid's voice rang out into the late summer afternoon.
..In the hush that followed, Song noticed Dippler weeping.

It seems that everyone is talking about how Matthias used the environment to his advantage, and so did basically every hero. Tam sharpened his shield, Martin tricked Tsarmina into the river, etc.etc. That's how all the heroes won; using their wits.

In a FAIR fight, I guess that Matthias would have a little advantage, because Cluny always seems to rely on dirty tricks and the use of multiple weapons at the same time, but I honestly don't know how to answer that. The rat is an skilled fighter regardless of said tricks (please note that I'm mostly concluding things based on what I saw on the TV series).

It would be an even match.
