But none of those things would help him in a one-on-one fight.

The decades more experience and superhuman abilities probably would.

The extra 50 years of combat training without any aging-related problems would be a real tough one to beat, I'll give you that. His superhuman abilities, on the other hand, were more good for resisting supernatural attacks, though - so less relevant against Jaime.

From the Wiki page:

"From 2957 to 2980, Aragorn undertook great journeys, serving in the armies of King Thengel of Rohan (King Théoden's father) and of Steward Ecthelion II of Gondor (father of Denethor). His tasks helped to raise morale in the West and to counter the growing threat of Sauron and his allies, and he acquired experience that he would later put to use in the War of the Ring. Aragorn served his lords during that time under the name Thorongil (Eagle of the Star). With a small squadron of Gondorian ships, he led an assault on Umbar in 2980, burning many of the Corsairs' ships and personally slaying their lord during the Battle of the Havens. After the victory at Umbar, "Thorongil" left the field, to the dismay of his men, and went East."

The man is very experienced. I just don't see a 30-year-old beating an extremely fine warrior in the context of LotR (where everyone important there is extra strong, fast, and endurable; has better eyesight, reflexes, etc), who has about 80 years of experience.
