If I my faulty brain cells rememember correctly, in the book Paris fight menelaus but Aphrodite (Goddess of Love) saves Paris from certain death. Hector runs from no one.

Actually Hector is more formidable appearing in the books. The movie didn't make him seem an exceptional fighter. And also, the characters in the movie were probably not in as good physical condition as the Greek warriors probably were.

Punk.
