Thanks Raptor22, these are some good points you raise. Still, I disagree with the general premise.

and whose power and skill are all fairly close.

I have dooku and bane fairly close with a slight edge to bane. I feel they each have advantages over the other, but banes advantage gaps are slightly larger. For instance i think dooku is a more technically skilled duelist while i have bane being more powerful and i think the gap between their skill is smaller than their gap in power.
Dooku is far more technically skilled swordsman than Bane, though.
The strenght advantage, if there is one, goes to Dooku who can match strenght with CW Anakin, who, in turn, can tear droids apart with his hands.

Same with the force. Dooku is more refined and technically skilled but not enough to bridge the slightly larger gap in raw power.
Agreed that mastery and refinement goes to Dooku.
Yet, raw power is also Dooku's advantage. His Obelisks feat in CW eclipses DoE Bane's showings to my knowledge.

As for zannah and ulic i see their fight as pretty moot. While personally i think zannah would eventually beat ulic, i doubt either would win before the bane/dooku contest is decided due to zannahs defensive style. I dont see ulic getting thru her defense in anything other than a very long and drawn out battle, nor do i think zannah has shown the offensive capabilities to overcome ulic in anything resembling a quick fight.
I agree with almost everything. Yet, Ulic has shown himself to be the superior duelist as demonstrated by his fights with Kun and him fending off an enraged Jedi while he was severed from the Force.
To be honest, the latter feat is among most impressive dueling feats I can think of.

In my opinion the winner of the overall fight will be the victor of the dooku/bane fight where i think bane will prevail and team up on ulic ftw.
I agree. Nevertheless, I think Dooku handles Bane just fine and carries his team to victory.
