Hemingway. Maybe Gillian Flynn, because I get the feeling she'd have a taser, pepper spray and maybe some brass knuckles on her, and that she'd fight dirty. The downside is that she'd manipulate the situation to make it all my fault when the cops show up.

Have you
seen
China Mieville? I have no idea if he's a fighter, but he sure looks like a man I'd like on my side in a fight. (Great novelist, too. An acquaintance tells me he's sweet and funny in person.)
Of course, my fighting methods are unconventional. I'll research my enemy thoroughly and say things likely to make him or her cry.

Ernest K. Gann. His military training, his working class experience as a pilot and sailor and world traveler, and his knowing how to live outside means he could hold ones' back in a scrap.

Ken Kesey. Champion wrestler in college. Might have made an Olympic squad were it not for injury.
William Burroughs. Not physically, but I've got to think that he'd have all kinds of devious crap to pull.
Hunter S. Thompson. Either from being ripped to the tits and completely fearless because of it, or from packing heat. Or both.
