Who wins? You name the contest.
And remember… Riker is “Re-Kirk” spelled backwards.
Here, you dropped a k. 
Perhaps they should have a smiley-typing contest. :smack:
I know it’s a bad answer, but my vote is always for Spock. 
Kirk. If he’s prepared.
Once that shirt is torn, Kirk all the way.
Besides, Kirk took out the genetically-engineers Khan, admittely by using a 23rd-century belaying pin to beat him senseless. What was Riker’s most impressive victory? He couldn’t even keep his girl/boyfriend from being neutered.
Kirk wins. Riker’s a lover, not a fighter. Kirk’s both.
Worf is a different story.
It’ll all depend. In a fight they both have stupid moves, Kirk has that double fist thing that would break all his fingers, and Riker has that open palm jab. Now, Kirk took out Kahn, and Riker slapped a Klingon like a bitch, so they both have wins under their belts. If Riker can keep Kirk’s shirt in one piece he could win, but if Kirk’s shirt was ripped he’d dominate.
Worf would kill them both and eat their hearts.
A contest of insufferable smugness: its a fierce battle but Riker wins hands-down. (Kirk is just too lovable to be really obnoxious.)
One question:
Is it Riker with or without the beard?
Hmmm…a difficult question.
Transported to a wilderness world by superior beings and forced to improvise weapons to fight to the death, I’d say Riker in three or four days.
In the Triskelion arena, I wager 500 Quatloos on Kirk in five rounds.
Even if he was losing… Kirk… would turn things… around… with an impassioned… speech… about how they… shouldn’t… be… fighting… at all!
Also, Riker’s habit of tilting his head to one side makes him a sucker for Kirk’s chop to the neck.
Kirk is much bettter at sucking in his gut.
Either way.
Of course, I was going to propose that Riker would win the beard-growing contest…
A 23rd-century plastic belaying pin that looked like it weighed less than an ounce. Khan was a wimp.
It always seemed to me that if you combined Picard and Riker, you got Kirk.
So, Kirk versus half-Kirk should tip toward Kirk, right?

Okay, so which one of the would win in the following contests?
-
Tactical skill?
-
Unarmed combat?
-
Seducing women?
-
Gut-sucking?
-
Beardedness?
Gotta be torn shirt Kirk.
Worf may be strong and skilled at hand to hand, but he can’t aim worth shit. Shakiest gun in the Alpha Quadrant. He misses when shooting at an intruder not even 15 feet away from him. All Kirk has to do is find some rocks, sulpher, and a tube, put it all together… yessssssssssssssssss.
Torn sssssssssssshirt Kirk winsssssssssssssssssssss.
Kirk. Duh.
Riker, dude.
How is Picard at all a part of Kirk?
