You should post this on the Character Optimization boards.. they'd be glad to help you optimize a build for your duel.

Go for a druid. Pump your animal (bear) companion to the heavens, then pound the living crap out of him with spells while the bear keeps him grappled.

...make a Sorcerrer or Wizard. Cast Fly. Go above him. Drop stuff on him until he dies.

Or just make a Cleric or Druid and tear him to pieces.

Steadfast Boots (from Arms & Equipment Guide) are a good start. They make you immune to all attempts at tripping. Throw in a locked gauntlet and you're set.

Also, Sunder his weapons. Chains are rather easy to break.

Point out the his "15 foot reach dual wielding spiked chain fighter" is breaking the rules. Horribly. You can't dual wield spiked chains, and there's no way to get 15 foot reach with spiked chains.

and there's no way to get 15 foot reach with spiked chains.Not even if you're a large creature?

You get twenty foot reach in that case. Then again, one interpretation of the Willing Deformity (Tall) Vile Feat would give you a 15 foot reach with a spiked chain, but the way reach functions, it'd be more likely to give you 20 foot reach as well.
