Curtis was shot in the chest but was able to torture Hannibal Connery a few minutes later.

Cola wins.

Who would you want watching your back?
Curtis. No question about it.

Sayid may have killed many more folks as an Iraqi Republican Guard interrogator (and sent quite a few folks to their doom).

BTW, according to Lost backstory on Wiki, he killed his commanding officer when he sought to break his lover out of prison. While infiltrating a terror cell, he caused someone to commit suicide when they were deceived by Sayid.

Curtis wins because of his current body count and the fact that we apparently know where his loyalties lie - Sayid is too much of a rogue figure with shifting loyalties.

I'm pretty sure that they'd take one look at each other, Curtis would call Jack (Bauer), Sayid would Locke, and the four of them would go kick the crap out of "The Others."

Now THAT would be fun to watch.

After just re-watching him in season 4 I pick Curtis hands down.

Sayid wins. He's still heartbroken from losing Shannon and is looking for blood.
