I heard there was a quote for Obi-Wan declining but I'm not sure if I've seen it. Anybody got the quote?
If Witwer's commentary is reliable, then Maul's grown stronger, and Vader is obviously looking to be an 8 in canon, so Maul being able to stand up to him likely makes him an 8 as well.
That said, Ben may not necessarily rival Maul in this fight, though I wouldn't be surprised if he turns out to.

In the Star Wars comics, Kenobi remarks how he has to catch up on his bladework after getting destroyed by a black Wookiee on Tatooine, IIRC. I don't think he used a lightsaber since his fight with Anakin, in fact.

Ah. I remember him struggling with Wookiees but I didn't remember some of the dialogue. If so, that's strong evidence for it. And therefore it's likely that Maul will hold the upper hand against Obi-Wan but lose for whatever reason (something to do with Ezra).
They wont make Kenobi that bad. Both are older, and less powerful. They will be evenly matched, you watch and Ezra may be the shatterpoint. Yes, I said shatterpoint. Its back in canon. The only good thing from Empire's End
Yeah, this Maul is so far removed from TPM that it's not even funny. I can't even call it a caricature because they're basically making their own character using a known character model.
I still can't see how Maul will lose to Old man Kenobi. Maul is still agile as hell, even if he's lost some of his old skill

Matching someone who went toe to toe with prime Vader 1 v 1> getting outdueled by an inferior version of a dude who got wrecked by dooku(season 6)despite the aid of his apprentice.
