He has fathered and trained 2 possibly 3 sons ( don’t know much about Andar, the oldest) that have all been respectable. And beating Eddard in spar, not that that says much. I ranked my top 10 fighters based off several factors. Just not having seen someone fight doesn’t mean I can’t speculate on their abilities, and that’s what this was, a speculation. And yes, we have seen Yohn Royce or atleast heard about him beating Thoros of Myr with a common mace, in a melee. And exclude Brienne who we see win the melee at Renly’s camp which is full of the finest chivalry of the Reach as we’ll as her triumphs over the bloody mummers? How can you say there’s is not enough info then include Yohn Royce, who we never see fight, and Lyn Corbray, who we only hear by reputation. There’s just not enough info on everyone listed so this is my speculation. Maybe I’m disrespecting Brienne but I don’t know. I’m leaving out the fan favorites Bronn, Loras, Jon, and Brienne because I don’t see them killing anyone on this list under typical circumstances. Victarion/Andrik were tough for me, had to group them together because I only wanted a top 10, and I could’ve and almost did put them in the middle with Bronze Yohn and Greatjon. Barristan, in his prime, ranks higher than everyone on this list but he’s old now. Garlan is known as a very good swordsman, in his prime, and humble about it. Lyn Corbray is reputable enough and has Valyrian steel. Greatjon and Bronze Yohn are tough to speculate on but I like them at 5 and 6. Gregor is a freak, could easily kill anyone on the list with a single strike, near invincible in full plate. Might catch shit for Oberyn being 3 but I think he’s underrated and he proved it later on. Jaime is undisputed here, proclaimed by Martin as one of the greatest warriors in Westeros history.
