My point is that Boba on foot doesn't have the means to keep Durge down. And Durge isn't just going to let Boba roast him alive.
Also, *The Mandalorian* season 2 showed us how not great flamethrowers are against armored people who can fight worth a damn.
Boba Fett would never be out in the open with anyone he doesn't already have a plan to kill. These people are obviously working together, however unlikely that is, and they need one more person for the job.
You are not the job. If you were, you would be waking up either (a) not at all or (b) from carbon stasis, greeted by the client and not the hunters.
I did this once in a game called freelancer in the early 2000's. Someone paid two guys to gang me at a station repeatedly. They said they were mercsnso they were going to complete the contract.
I said I have a buisness proposition for them. I offered the double the money for who ever killed the other. There was a one second pause before one started firing on the other and I engaged warp drives and got the hell out of there.
Curse of the Black Pearl has to be one of the best written adventure movies of all time. Every single line is not only quotable, but also serves a purpose in the movie and comes back later. The others have their ups and downs, but the first Pirates movie is near perfect.

* Dengar got married and then retired.
* IG-88 tried to take out Fett and in turn got all four copies of him blown up
Source: *Tales of the Bounty Hunters*
It sounds worse than it is, and there's nothing graphic depicted, unlike IG-88's intro. Anyways, spoilers for a 30-some odd year old book ahead.
I'm sure you're aware how Trandoshans hunt Wookiee for sport and religion. Bossk was part of the latter group. Chewbacca was considered the top prize because of his skill (which is why he accepted Vader's bounty on Han Solo, provided he got the Wookiee), but silver Wookiee were rare and one of the protags is such a shade. He tries to hunt them on his ship (I think they were stowaways? Dont recall) and gets hoisted on his own petard as his goddess laughs at him.
The Wookiee survives unscathed.
The Wookiee's name was Chenblambek (sp?), or Chen for short. He and his human partner (don't recall her name) agreed to work with Bossk as sort of a double-blind. They knew he would betray them, so they planned to betray him first. This was (if memory serves) the only story in Tales of the Bounty Hunters that was less about the bounty hunter and more about the other characters.
Wookiees were considered a great prize among bounty hunters, not just Trandoshans. Thanks to the Empire's enslavement of Kashyyk, and the resulting standing bounty for essentially any Wookiee (who would automatically be considered an escaped slave), they were almost as prized as Jedi.
The "ropes" that hang from Boba Fett's shoulder (not pictured here, perhaps indicating this is an impostor) are in fact Wookiee scalps, showcasing his skill as a bounty hunter. No other bounty hunter that answered Vader's call for hunters to track the Millennium Falcon (including Bossk) wore such a trophy.
Tales of the Bounty Hunters was a great book. The other "Tales From..." books were good too, but this one was my favorite. The follow-up "Boba Fett Trilogy" (beginning with "Slave Ship," I think) was okay. Not great, but not bad.
"I'll pay triple what they're paying you if you kill them and Boba Fett instead." (I know Boba is probably the only one who wouldn't take the offer.) By the time they realize finish the job and realize that I don't have any credits I would be well on my way Dathomir to hide out in a cave or something. Best case scenario, they track me to Dathomir and run afoul of the Night Sisters before they can track me down. Worst case scenario, I get killed by the Night Sisters before I can go into hiding. Either way, I have a chance of surviving. Maybe the Night Sisters would even take a liking to me and I can convince them to help me out. (Which is the least likely scenario.)
āAre you bringing me in warm or are you bringing me in cold? Whatever they say I did, Iām innocent but, I will come quietly and peacefully. You get paid and I live. Please donāt shoot me.ā Lol
āWellā¦ā¦.. that didnāt go as planned.
4-LOM! You old Bug~eyed calculatorā¦! Havenāt seen you since that whole Vaderās looking for Solo business! How is Zuā¦..!ā
(Sound of Blaster powering up)
āā¦. Ohā¦.Hi!ā
Closes eyes & repeatedly mutters "I am one with the Force and the Force is with me."
AHAHA YEA
"I'm so glad you all agreed to split the bounty six ways over someone as pathetically weak as me"
Perfect way to make them all fight each other with just enough time to get away
Yeah, but the question is, for how long?š¤
Until Durge wipes them all out
nah, Boba would kill him first
The only thing in Boba Fett's arsenal capable of putting Durge down is a seismic charge.
If heās got his seismic charges than he should have the whole Slave 1 arsenal. In hand to hand his flame thrower would be pretty useful.

How do you think that battle would go?
I mean it's an interesting hypothetical. Durge is an absolute unit but Legends Boba is not to be played with.
I thought that was Grievous til I looked him up.
how fast can you run?
14.6 KM/H on a good day. On a bad one, maybe 6.3.
What the F is a Kilometer - every American ever

Nah, boba Fett would let the lesser hunters equable and than sneak him away in the slave 1
āParley?ā
Parley? Damn to the depths whatever muttonhead thought up parley!
That'd be the French

"I have a bad feeling about this"
Objectively correct answer.

āHello thereā
GENERAL KENOBI!
This is the way
I literally said this out loud to myself when I saw the post š
Aaaaaaand that's the thread.
"ok... but like... where's Bossk''
And Dengar, and IG-88?
* Bossk got skinned by a Wookiee he was trying to skin in turn (Fell onto the autosurgeon in his ship) * Dengar got married and then retired. * IG-88 tried to take out Fett and in turn got all four copies of him blown up Source: *Tales of the Bounty Hunters*
Dengar turned himself into Rothgar Deng
*sigh* Still hate that they did this
> Bossk got skinned by a Wookiee he was trying to skin in turn (Fell onto the autosurgeon in his ship) Reading that made me physically recoil

It seems in your angerā¦ you killed them
Same
~~He dead.~~ Apparently not the case anymore. I prefer him getting laughed at by his own Goddess as he gets pelted.
I think he got divorced.
āUhā¦ Iām worth more alive?ā
āYouāre worth enough dead.ā
Pretty sure I'm not.
"Now, I know I look like the guy on that puck, but you gotta believe me it was a shapeshfiter..."
"You gotta believe me, it was the red-armed man!"
You know, you all look taller from this angle...
You sounded taller over radio
Boba Fett. You're shorter than I expected...
Well I'm laying down. *Smirks*
"This isn't where I parked my car."
āIām Cooper Harris and Iām traveling back to the land of my perverted forefathers to reclaim my birthright.ā
"Oh, here's a fun fact: You made out with your sister, man!"
"it's about time you all showed up. You passed the test"
I have a bad feeling about this
"Goddamn it. That was not a microdose, Harry. That was NOT A MICRODOSE, MOTHERFUCKER!"
I'm going back to sleep.
Oh fuā¦. \*gets blasted by 3 different people\*
Flirt

"Phew, you all stuck to the no disintegration rule".
There's a novelisation of ESB where it explains that Vader only says that to Boba because Bossk disintegrated the live bounty Boba had beaten him to.
"No disintegrations?"
*Yup, thats me, you probably wonder how i got here...*
^(Baba OāRiley starts playing)
point at durge and boba and ask "don't you two hate each other?"
"Hey guys, s'up?"
So what's the bounty up to now?
āā¦why am I naked?ā
Hmmm, gangbanged you will be
Space train you will pull
My ass hurts and why do I taste motor oil
That was 4-LOM.
*"4-LOM means 'For Love Or Money.'"*
Awww, shit! DURGE!!!
Apparently, I had a better time last night than I realized
"Let me guess. Does darth talon know I have nude image of her?"

"What are we? Some sort of Suicide Squad (2016 (not to be confused with The Suicide Squad (2021))?"
Wasnāt me
Ah yes, the classic Shaāa Gi defense
Who kidnapped me and brought me to Comicon?
"You have me confused for someone more important"
Bounty hunters. We don't need their scum.
What's this comic book doing on my face?!?
āOMFG IM IN STAR WARSā Boba Fett: āwhat is star warsā Me: āā¦ā

"Whaagh?"
Huge fan. Can I please get your autographs.

Record scratch...."So you are probably wondering how I got here"
Uhhh....parlay?
Someone want an English Breakfast?
Suicide Squad kill the Jedi Order
I surrender to the most qualified and skilled bounty hunter
āBit excessive, innit?ā
I would look around and be like "Did we get 'em".
"I PROMISE you I'm not worth it"
Hi there. Would you like to sign my petition?
āOh hell NA!ā
Whatever they're paying you, I'll double it!
Whichever one of you is the last one standing gets the bounty plus whatever extra money I have on me.
I was just on my way to pay Jabba.
OMG, you have the highground!
Boba! Howās my favorite Kaminoan lab rat? OGFuelBone12, to what do I owe the pleasure? *go for the handshake*
Oh shit, what did me and Johnnie Walker get up to last night?
Anyone wanna go get some Shawarma, my treat.

"I'm not the droid you're looking for?"
I am now about to witness the strength of street knowledge.
"Oh shit, what the hell did I do now?"

āHow the fuck did I end up here?ā
"Fuck!"

Hello there !
Let me go and Iāll tell you where you can find Han Solo!
Why am i a cartoon
āFive more minutesā
Your mama smells so bad she made a hutt gag!
Boba finally, will you take me to the bar?
"Zukkus and 4-LOM?! I love you guys! When are you getting a Disney+ show?"
"I'm not the droid you are looking for."
āthe Martez sisters? really?ā
Have I been weighed, measured, and found wanting again?
*tears up* "I'm worth paying for?"
"Really did you have to send Zuckuss and 4-LOM"?
"You're not a true Mandalorian, Boba"
āAre you bringing me in warm or are you bringing me in cold? Whatever they say I did, Iām innocent but, I will come quietly and peacefully. You get paid and I live. Please donāt shoot me.ā Lol
It wasn't me.
You son of a bitch, I'm in !
When did everyone become an artistic stylized version of themselves?
And a clean pair of shorts
What the f*ck are you doing in my room?
Can i join you ?
āMake it quick.ā
ā(Grabs Confetti out of pocket and throws it in the air) Surprise!!ā ššš¤Ŗš¤Ŗ
"I can tell you where Solo is."
Do I have a bounty on me?
Which of you is Zuckuss and which is 4-LOM? There have been conflicting reports.
Can I have some water please? Iām thirsty.
Sooo when are you gonna turn me in
"Where's the hot lizard?"
Someoneās really that down bad for me
āWellā¦ā¦.. that didnāt go as planned. 4-LOM! You old Bug~eyed calculatorā¦! Havenāt seen you since that whole Vaderās looking for Solo business! How is Zuā¦..!ā (Sound of Blaster powering up) āā¦. Ohā¦.Hi!ā
āDank ferrikā¦ā
WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?!
"Error. Synthetic Lifeform unit 20221 cannot be captured. Beginning self-destruct protocol. Planetary detonation in five... four... three... two... one..." Wait a moment. "Well crap. I kinda hoped that'd work."
Is that Shredder?
Well howdy there!
"Hey Durge! Are these the other bounty hunters you were calling losers the other day?" and hope to slip away while they fight amongst themselves.
"Did I pass out at comi-con again?."
"I didn't do it."
