The only fights Leo can possibly lose are:

Percy Vs Leo: Percy would probably win;

Jason Vs Leo: I don't know who would win this;

Nico Vs Leo: Hard to say too.

But Leo beats anyone else... Actually from what we have seen, the Blessing of Mars (not the Blessing of Ares) seems to appear any time Frank is involved in a tough battle. It appeared as a gift when battling the cows in Venice and then again when at the House of Hades. If it is a blessing, it should technically appear whenever the person that received it wills it to; but I understand that some blessings in the series work differently then others.

Also just putting this out there, but Leo doesn't have a good track record when it comes to up front battling. Medea charmspoke him, the werewolves would have beaten him if not for the Hunters, forced to flee from the Eidolons and later only beat them as a result of Nemesis and her cookie. The only time he manages to win a fight is when he has time to prepare for one, like against Ma Gasket and her sons, but that only worked because he was using a lot of heavy machinery. Leo, much like Piper, is not a front-line fighter. In fact I doubt he could beat Annabeth in a fight (he even admits in the books he is scared of her) or Coach Hedge.

However Leo is the more popular character, which will probably mean he will win anyway. Ok 2 things, HE CAN SIMPLY BURN THE COACH. Like, just set his legs on fire or something. And the other things. (No I don't really have 2 LOL) When they ran into Medea, only a charmspeaker (i.e. Piper) could have resisted. If the rest of the 7 were there, they would have been talked into it too. (Exception of maybe Annabeth) But you're right Dark, they would have been completely dead without the Hunters. And come on, that Eidolon scene was awesome. You just have to retreat sometimes. Just imagine how wickedly awesome his fights would be if he had like an army of Archimedes spheres to fight with the 7. TEAM LEO!!!!!!!!!!!
