I haven’t read the books, but it seems like a theme is that everyone is extremely “human”. Like no one in the series could miraculously survive a fall of a cliff. That’s why I like the show, but I think it would pretty immediately discount anyone from being able to win a fight against a pseudo-superhuman who was able to, almost literally, walk off the damage from falling off a cliff
For me, everything that happens on HBO after Jon is stabbed by his brothers is just high-end fanfic. I will always believe that the showrunners fucked up the ending. And, let’s be real, GRRM isn’t going to prove me wrong.
I think GRRM would declare Ser Pounce the winner in a match against Kratos.
I freaking love ASOIAF, but this guy talks way too much crap sometimes.

Or if you do, say, survive a fall from a tower window you don’t survive, get magic powers, and become king in the end.
Oh, wait.

That’s not in the book though.
