Here's something that is quite rare on this site: James Bond themed rumbles! This isn't really in celebration of any kind of milestone or anything like that, but this is a tournament starring Bond's supporting cast and enemies. Official film versions of characters only.
Franz Oberhauser, aka Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Spectre, 2015 film)
Bio: A true sociopath with an insane vendetta against his adopted brother, James Bond, Franz Oberhauser believed that his biological father favoured Bond to him and therefore his grudge the Scottish boy started early. After Oberhauser killed his father he began his criminal empire and created the organisation that would be feared the world over, SPECTRE. Taking the name Ernst Stavro Blofeld, he was the man behind every tragedy in Bond's life and was the higher-up of every enemy he faced from Le Chiffre to Raoul Silva. As SPECTRE's leader, Blofeld authorised the organisation to get involved with basically every avenue of crime imaginable. As Blofeld put it to James, he was "the author of all [his] pain". Blofeld eventually went after James directly, and had him and his girlfriend taken to his base. He received a large facial scar from an explosion Bond had caused.
Powers, Abilities and Personality: Judging from the fact that Blofeld built the most pervasive and powerful criminal organisation in the James Bond universe through which he could throw whole governments into disarray essentially to just get back at his annoying foster brother, it can be derived that Blofeld was both insanely cunning, manipulative and resourceful as well as insanely petty, spiteful and diabolical. Blofeld was an expert at psychological warfare and getting under people's skin with his softly spoken but talkative demeanour. Similar to his subordinate, Silva, but in contrast to every other Blofeld in the franchise, Oberhauser was not overly concerned with his own life and goaded on Bond to shoot him when he was defenceless. Being a puppeteer perpetually in the shadows, Blofeld preferred fighting with words over fisticuffs or guns.
vs.
Aristotle Kristatos (For Your Eyes Only, 1981 film)
Bio: While he had a good public image as a shrewd man of business and war hero in World War II and the Greek Civil War, Aristotle Kristatos was actually a drug smuggler and traitorous Soviet spy who was also in league with Nazis in case people would think he wasn't already scummy enough. Kristatos was hired to smuggle missiles out of Britain by General Gogol of the KGB.
Powers, Abilities and Personality: Aris Kristatos was a war veteran and talented at keeping an affable facade even though he was a double agent against Britain in both of the wars he fought in. Kristatos, as a person, was relatively subdued and quiet compared to other bombastic Bond villains. His evilness made him unhesitant to fight with a knife if he saw no other option.
Arena: A pit
