Hitler and Stalin were little guys, Gandhi didn't fight, and Jack the Ripper attacked unsuspecting women with a knife - not a tough group, from the sounds of it. Maybe Peter the Great, or possibly Nero.

Nero. Of the ones I know on that list, that guy could actually do something himself. And he's insane. And violent. Jack the Ripper is my second answer, but as has been stated, he attacked unsuspecting women, rather than a bunch of people in an all-out fight.
I don't know who this Yamato guy is... or Peter the Great. <-_->
Of course, Gandhi could win. Who wants to attack the nonviolent guy? He'll sit out of the fight until everyone else has killed each other off, and thus win by default!

I don’t know anything about some of the people involved, but those I know weren’t known for their fighting skills. So if I was a betting kind, my bet would be on The Ripper, although he was a murderer, not a fighter, he would still have a better chance in an open fight then rulers who are used to get their dirty work done with other people’s hands.
P.S.
Never heard that Peter the Great was of much (if any) good in a fight… Yet most people seem to be picking him.

Peter the Great was the tallest and biggest of the bunch. And if memory serves he was a brilliant naval officer, so he'll have that big cool whack-ass cutlass sword.
Then again, Stalin was a total bad-ass, sneaky and was the only one of the bunch who didn't have any physical frailties. It would *definitely* come down to the two Russian guys.

He was a good officer, a reasonably good ruler with some progressive ideas, and overall – definitely among the better emperors that Russia had. I have never heard of him being of any good in a fight, but that’s probably because he has never been in a one in his entire life.
I don’t recall how physically fit he was, but in either case, there is more to winning a bloody free-for-all fight then just size and strength.
Then again, Stalin was a total bad-ass, sneaky and was the only one of the bunch who didn't have any physical frailties. It would *definitely* come down to the two Russian guys.
And Stalin was ordering to have people hung or shot (and the story has it, he died planning yet another mass execution), but as far as I know he has never killed anyone personally. He wouldn’t stand much of a chance in a real fight, especially against a serial murderer like The Ripper.

Although he didn't fight back he was so resilient that the englishmen bashing him got tired of it and left India altogether.

Well, Yamoto had the training for melee combat. But back in the day im sure that Peter The Great could kick some ass if he had to.This is a list I have compiled (Oder of Death:)
1.Ghandi (Unfortunatly)
2.John Paul II (Unless He Had The Pope Mobile)
3.Martin Luther
4.Lenin
5.Hitler
6.Stalin
7.Jack The Ripper
Then Down To--> Yamoto, Peter The Great, Nero
He was a good officer, a reasonably good ruler with some progressive ideas, and overall – definitely among the better emperors that Russia had. I have never heard of him being of any good in a fight, but that’s probably because he has never been in a one in his entire life.
Completely untrue...he personally commanded Russian armies in numerous battles throughout the course of the Great Northern War against Sweden, and was nearly killed or captured on several occasions.

Has to be Stalin, he was from Georgia and given his sadistic nature I figure he would fight mean and dirty.
The rest would not fight, fight like girls or like proper gentlemen so basically all loose!
Stalin was no 'little guy'... he was an accomplished thug. His father beat him up as a kid, one of his school contemporaries wrote: "Those undeserved and fearful beatings made the boy as hard and heartless as his father." He got arrested repeatedly during the bolshevik movement, mostly because he led "fighting squads" in bank robberies, to raise funds for the bolshies. Stalin was so mean to his son that the kid shot himself, but survived. This led Stalin to say that his son "Couldn't even shoot straight". Stalin would definitely be my first bet in a brawl between these guys.

I think that my opinion on something has actually changed because of a point made on NSG.
Good job
Yamato undoubtably knew martial arts, giving him an advantage. Though Peter the Great might have beat him.
Anyway, I predict that Ghandi would be the first to go down. Hitler would be the second, because he'd throw himself into the fight only to get crushed by the heavyweights. John Paul II would be next, then perhaps Lenin or Luther.

Peter the Great was tall, but he was skinny, and he had bad health. No way he'd win. Leading armies into battle means he has horse riding and strategic skills, not that he was single-handedly fighting off enemies at all.
Jack the Ripper was psychotic, but you know, knifing prostitutes in a dark alley really doesn't say much for one's combat ability.
For Yamato, I'm assuming Yamato Takeru. The one with the holy sword. He wins.
Stalin yeah, he was mean, but the holy sword cuts through that shit too.

Well, my bad then. Like I said, I have never heard (or at least, don't remember) about Peter participating in a personal combat, so I assumed that he has never been in a one (and I fully aware that my assumption could be wrong).
P.S.
And by the way, when I said "he has never been in a one in his entire life", I was referring to personal combat, not comanding armies or fleets (which I know Peter had done on more then one ocassion, and if I remember correctly, he was a very good commander).

He was still small in stature, though. That was my meaning. ;) I'm not sure if any of the others on the list were giants, exactly, but Hitler and Stalin were both quite short, if I recall correctly.

Just a few excerpts from wikipedia...
In the period after the Revolution of 1905 Stalin led "fighting squads" in bank robberies to raise funds for the Bolshevik Party. His practical experience made him useful to the party, and gained him a place on its Central Committee in January 1912.
He then worked for a decade with the political underground in the Caucasus, experiencing repeated arrests and exile to Siberia between 1902 and 1917.

Assuming hand to hand, Stalin is no chance. Portraits and statues greatly exaggerated his build; he was actually only about 5'5" or 5'6".

And, lets face it, Lenin was the coolest bald guy with a mustache, the world has ever seen. he would use his socialist mojo to recruit the pope, and together they would combine their powers to summon Sean Connery, and bam! the fights over right there.

Young Hitler was pretty hardcore during the Great War, so I would tend to go for him (Yamato being most likely not real).
Peter the Great was a spindly, shambling wreck of a man with a tiny hands and feet, disproportionately narrow shoulders and a small head.
