Could a pacifist like Gabrielle defeat someone like Xena, who evidentally has much more skills in battle?

I’m thinking they probbaly did fight at one point or another…while I’ve seen plenty of the shows, I still managed to miss quite a lot, especially the end season…but you know, a decisive fight to the DEATH! Woo. >_>
Who do you think would win? By all rights Xena probably would, what with her insane dexterity and mad skillz +5…but somehow, despite living by a pacifist philosophy, I always thought that Gabrielle was a hell of a lot more brutal than Xena actually was…since Xena also refuses to take a life, she usually resorts to martial arts and uses her sword mainly to deflect blows, so perhaps Gabby using a blunt weapon makes her seem more aggressive…but it’s not just that, in my opinion. The staff was awesome, but she was just as violent with the sais, while Xena always just seemed quite methodical, despite all the badass faces she always does.
Enough rambling however…who wins? Joxer maybe?
