No magic and that is ok but what about alchemy potions? Even something as simple as the cat potion (night vision) would be decisive if Geralt can decide thevtime ofbthebfight or simply drag it as long as night come. Then physically Geralt should have an edge since he fights every kind of shitty monster possible and so has also to be able to respond to inhuman strength/speed/mental attacks (but we have alchemy again but most likely he has developed some basic defence by using potions for years/decades).
Aragorn on the other hand has the urukai run so superhuman resistance, in the movie the return of the king he takes blow with his sword from an armored troll (the battle just before Frodo does his stuff)(but this is non canon), also, maybe this could count, his nickname was strider and indeed he traveled the middlearth on rough terrains on foot more than on horse (like when he captured Gollum after Sauron released him, followed him for a lot of time, also I don't recall this stuff very well so it could be a bit different than what I wrote), the point of this is that Geralt on the other hand travels nore on horse so the muscles.. Ok maybe this is a weak point. The best point for Aragorn yet for me is his sword, Geralt can get some fancy stuff but Anduril is a legendary sword and it could end destroying Geralt's blade in the long run (also now that I think about it can Geralt use potions on swords like poison, paralisis etc.?). Then the experience, even if it doesn't seem like it Aragorn is 80 at the time ofbthe lord of the rings and since he always fought humanoid enemies he has more experience with them than Geralt (at least he gains something here too, even if Geralt fighting Fiends and all the other stuff is still way better).
So overall Geralt should have a better body, Aragorn more experience in fighting humanoids and a better weapon (then again can Geralt use stuff like the small crossbow? That would be a big help, at least it gives him variability and moreover long range which Aragorn totally lacks) but I still see Geralt winning in the end (again I would prefer to face Aragorn than a fiend/cyclop/crone etc.). Not so ironically Gandalf could mince Geralt even without magic (probably) since he fought and beat the balrog of Moria (and that is way worse than any fiend/cyclop etc etc.)
