John Wayne vs. CLint Eastwood
and
Dirty Harry vs. Joe/Monco/Blondie("Man With No Name")
For me it's Man With No Name all the way.
Well, first, it would never happen, both are too good of good guys to be on different sides of any issue---so they wouldn't ever go after each other.
BUT much as I have loved "Duke" since childhood, and Eastwood since he made his first movie---IF it ever came down to it---YES Eastwood would win NOT because he is faster or better, but because JW always fought by a soldiers code, and Eastwood always follows his own, and hasn't any qualms about cheating or stacking any deck in his favor. He does what it takes to win against whatever odds.
SIGH---the "old" days!! they were good!!
And as for Dirty Harry and the Man with no name-Might as well call that one a draw--don't kid yourself---they would both be dead at the end of it---Dirty Harry didn't get his name being slow, stupid, or NOT using any edge he could find. LOL
