Let me halp you with your logic, you dont strike when your defending. Also, mace's Vaapad works on both lightside and dark side, according to Fishy (ty).
ANd obi wan gets owned because mace is far more advanced in lightsaber skills, take the obi wan vs dooku fight for instance. Obi wan was owned pretty badly, and mace could hold of dooku for a long time, maybe even win.

Well, Obi-Wan is far from average. And Mace wouldn't own him; of yes he would. But still, Obi-Wan iis one of the best duelists in the Order because of his Soresu master. Not once did someone get a lightsaber through to him in ROTS, and he fought Dooku, Grievous, and Anakin. Now Dooku threw him away like a rag doll, Grievous beat the crap out of him physically, and Anakin kicked/grappled with him a lot, but no one got a blade on him. Mace would do what Dooku did, but still.

That doesn't mean a thing... But anyways, Mace has been a master longer than Obi-Wan... his Force mastery is doubtlessly greater. ANd besides, the real factor here is lightsaber combat. Obi-Wan had pretty much mastered form III by ROTS. However, it was not enough to allow him to get the advantage of Dooku in the beginning. The only reason Obi-Wan won against Grievous was because the general pushed the attack. And Anakin was defeated using pure defense. Now, Mace Windu (WHOSE VAAPAD STYLE IS NOT STRONG AGAINST DARK SIDERS... GET THAT OUT OF YOUR HEADS) has to master several styles in order to refine and create the final installment of Juyo. Meaning? He is not just keen on defense (And having a blaster bolt reflection technique similar to Form III) he has a superior offense, something Obi-Wan does not possess. In the end? Obi-Wan will tire himself out and Mace will defeat him, bar some unforseen accident. Odds in favor of Mace. Mace wins.
