I think we're all forgetting that AotC Dooku was skilled enough with a saber and powerful enough in the force to keep up with Yoda, who is canonically stronger than light side Revan, who is in turn more powerful than Darth Revan. I think we're underestimating Tyranus here.
No one is underestimating Count Dooku. Despite certain (banned) individuals attempting to discredit the skill and proficiency of the Count of Serenno, Dooku ranks among the most powerful Jedi Masters in the history of the Jedi Order itself, he was regarded as the "the most bitter loss" of the Lost Twenty (to which the Complete Visual Dictionary cites is testament to his strength in the Force), and -- according to the Revenge of the Sith novelization -- an even greater Lord of the Sith. He would certainly prove to be a skilled challenge for Darth Revan.
Actually I believe both we called sith lords in the rule of two. Furthermore Dooku was the apprentice of one darth sidious who would beat down revan so there is no shame in being an apprentice to him. So Revan may still win but it is not because a title.
Your logic is extremely faulty. In case you didn't know, when a Sith apprentice is strong enough, he is supposed to challenge his master. Eventually, the Sith apprentice will surpass his master. If not, then he is not worthy of being his apprentice. Therefore, this has nothing to do with it.

Under Darth Bane's Rule of Two, both Sith Lords share the title of "Dark Lord of the Sith" -- the only titular difference is that the reigning Sith also possesses the title of 'Master'.
Superior rank -- especially when comparing two individuals from separate timeframes -- does not necessarily equate to superior skills.
Another reason why this is flawed: they are from different time frames, they weren't around at the same time. If they were both Sith at the same time and Revan was Tyranus's master, then yes this logic would work. But by this logic Lord Kaan, who is a master, would be able to defeat Darth Vader, who is an apprentice. Which wouldn't happen, btw.

Force: Revan
Saber: Really really really close but Revan
Overall: Revan again
He'd win the saber battle because we've established that Dooku would lose to Malak (I think...somewhere although really closely, again) and if Revan can beat Malak we have the following equation:
Revan>Malak>Dooku
Overall, it's Revan, although quite closely. Please don't jump on me for saying Revan would win the saber fight! PLEASE!

How can you expect us not to when Revan hasn't shown anything saber wise to take out Anakin "in TeH Zone" Skywalker in a saber duel.
No what people though they established was malak>dooku overall (though i'm sure count makashi would prove that wrong if he posted here and im not sold on it either as im sure others are not) and Malak has shown even less than Revan saber wise so it truly makes me wonder what evidence is out there that puts Malak above Dooku.
