You don't have to be scared of a car to be brutally run over and killed by one. The nazgul used fear, yes, but that doesn't mean they were helpless without it. Eyown showed no fear of the Witch-King, yet with one blow the Nazgul Lord not only shattered the shield of Rohan's Shieldmaiden, he broke her arm. A nazgul can still chop off your head whether or not you're scared. Just because you're not scared of it doesn't mean you'll beat it. Nazgul could be defeated, yet that doesn't mean bravery=instant win. At the gate of Minas Tirith, Gandalf-who did not fear the Witch-King-doubted he could win.

Also, before you guys say anything about "social rank" leading to instant victory, remember Sauron against Huan. Sauron was the greatest of the Maia, and he was utterly humiliated and defeated. Ungoliant defeated Morgoth. Thingol was torn apart by the bare hands of dwarves. Tulkas beat Morgoth. With the ring and in a powerful form, the best Sauron could do was tie with a war-weary Elendil and Gil-Galad. Smaug was beaten by Bard. Sam beat Shelob. Being an Eldar may make Galadriel un-afraid, but against a king of men from the days of Numenor who became an un-dead warlord, the fair elven lady who most likely wasn't a warrior would lose in a battle. Fear is a great power of the Nazgul, yes, but they are still pretty much non-stiff zombies with swords and combat experience regardless.

Galadriel is great, yes, but I don't see how she could defeat the Morgul Lord in combat. She's great for wisdom, not for battle. While she is wiser and has a ring of power, she likely wouldn't stand a chance against the Witch-King. Sorry guys, but even if you're brave, if you aren't experienced in combat and aren't in good fighting shape, a tall, combat-ready zombie is likely going to beat you.
