With no weapons? Conan.
With their traditional weapons? Requires more thought.

Ok I'll bite with this one but there really is too much choice.
So assuming we are talking about them in their TV/movie prime and with no weapons:
Michael Knight - Hahahahaha. Surely a joke? Wouldn't even get to throw a punch.
Mitchell Gant - Over the hill and prone to flasbacks. Wouldn't last much lomger than Knight.
Taylor - As an astronaut he'd be fit and could do some damage but I think he'd fall next.
Ash - I hate to say this but he got by on luck and weapons. Definitely next to go.
Mal and Max - A tough call. Neither have any specialist training as far as we know besides what was required to be a soldier and a cop. They both can take a battering but I could see them taking each other out.
Kirk - This man can give a good beating when it's needed and take the punishment that goes with it but his ego would get the better off him against those who have better training.
Aragorn - As a Ranger he could employ stealth and cunning in the fight and could last a long while
James Bond - As a highly trained killer he'd be tough to beat and he's been taught to ithstand pain. Ultimately he is just a man.
Conan - His superior strength and warrior instincts would see him through to the end to be crowned winner.
I've tried to be objective about this as I wouldn't be rooting for Conan to win. I have too many faves to pick from the whole list.

Conan, Bond and Aragorn are SciFi alpha males?
Han Solo is not a SciFi alpha male?
I protest!

I'd have put Solo in there as well but to be fair he didn't say that Solo WASN'T a Scifi alpha male, he just didn't include him.
Michael Knight isn't scifi. He's cannon fodder.
Aragorn and Conan are fantasy.
Kirk, Mal, Taylor and Max are the only true scifi ones in the list. I don't know where I'd place the others. Horror for Ash I guess.

Sorry to my heroes, but Conan would be last man standing. Not much of a contest either.
Unless Kirk slipped in a phaser, or if someone in the audience yelled "Strange one!!!" and tossed in the chainsaw to Ash.

I would go with Max. He has taken on some tough guys and his mind is quick to adapt to the tactics required. An example is the cage match he fought.

Conan endured years of training and beat everyone in the pit. You know, 2 men enter, 1 man leaves? He was doing that long before Thunderdome. 
Conan stands alone. Easy.
