damn, i did make alot of typos. im on my sisters lap top and i hate the keyboard so ive probably made alot more im unaware of. i dont think dooku thought he had a 90% chance, it was an example. realistically i think he has maybe a 30%, i only used it saying that even if he thought he would very likley win, he might not want to risk his life and all his masters planning on the uncertian outcome of a duel with someone who in the very least was a close match for him.
yoda had beaten dooku in the past, dooku knew how good he was, dooku thought he was better, but wouldnt risk his life on it unless he had to.
You can thank Buddha all you like that I dont write SW. But whatever would have happened had the match kept going is only based on opinions. You know my stance on who would have won but the only argument I hear from everyone else is that Yoda would have won because Dooku 'ran away'. That is a pitiful argument and one that requires a very big assumption and the ability to know what was going through Dookus head at the time.
Here are the facts:
-Dookus Makashi style uses minimum enery. This means that it will take longer for him to tire out,
-Yodas Ataru style uses a lot of energy so the chances of him tiring before the Count are very high.
-Count Dooku had the plans to the Death Star in his pocket. These plans are extremely important and he would not want them to fall into the hands of the jedi.
-Geonosis was swarming with clones and jedi and it would have been a matter of time before they reached the hangar where they were fighting.
-Dooku had just fought Obi-Wan, a master of Soresu the defensive style, and Anakin twice, who happened to be 'the chosen one'.
Your Argument:
-Dooku left the battle thereby he must have lost to Yoda. Yoda was the clear victor and dominant fighter.
Your argument is so biased and based on so much assumption it is almost laughable.

Maybe the argument is biased and laughable to you, but outside of your Dooku fanboy logic, the argument seems quite clear. The only one who could stand up to Yoda was Sidious, and he had to be on high ground to come out with a stalemate.. What makes you think Dooku would ever beat Yoda in a fight?

Facts, the Anti Fanboy solution
In a prolonged fight, Yoda who is on par with Sidious (Dooku's master) would win, no question. However in Ep2, The fight was practically a stalemate. Yoda never really came close to striking down Dooku, all he did for the whole fight was spin around like a top. I might have to watch it again but as of now I seriosly disagree with those saying Yoda outclassed Dooku in saber skills. In the force bttle Yoda won cleary, (throwing Dooku's own attack back at him).
I dont find that pic funny at all. I actually think you are all in denial. You are only posting it because it was the only time the great Count lost his composure. In fact, it was the only time the almighty Count Dooku lost a match in his life. His defeat probably caused a bigger celebratioin than was had at the downfall of the empire. That is how powerful Dooku was and how big of a threat he was to the Republic.
