   Most interesting Gunfight or Battle?

   Well the first question did so well I thought i'd try another! So what   
   do you think was the most interesting (real) gunfight or battle and why?   
   As for myself this is a pretty hard one..... I guess I would have to say   
   its a toss up between Wild Bills gunfight with Dave Tutt and the fight   
   at the KC Ranch during the Johnson County War where Nat Champion held   
   off the Invasion party before they burnt him out and gunned him down   
   like the dirty cowards that they were! Both fights show the great   
   coolness and deliberation   
   necessary to win a fight although in Mr. Champions case those   
   characteristic's where not enough to save the day due to the   
   overwhelming odds against him!
