Beregond fought well because he feared of the life of his loved leader Faramir. The free people were always described as better not for their training but for their morale and because they fought to keep their freedom. Even the hobbits could easily defeat Sharkey's bandits, and hobbits don't have any combat training (except for the brandybucks who were skilled in archery).
