I'm sorry, Esb, but 'honor' counts for nothing. One fights a battle to win, not to win honorably. Dooku didn't use the Force simply because Yoda could defend himself from all of Yoda's assaults. Sidious did the smart thing. Perhaps if Dooku did as well, he could've won or injured Dooku. But again, honor tends to cloud one's judgment and makes them do stupid stuff like that.
So, the Dooku vs Sidious thing can remain off here. Bring back the thread or go to to a thread designed for it. But the fact remains that Sidious injured Yoda whereas Dooku did not. And for those saying Dooku is owned, I never wanted to project that notion. Yoda would win after a prolonged duel. But there'd be no quick one.

Eh? I don't even think it's worth my time to correct you. You're pretty well clueless. You're probably the kind of guy who chortles with glee when a cat gets hit by a truck.
Dooku was forced to retreat both in AITC and in DR. Yoda was clearly his superior in Force powers (though not by much) and is even better with a saber (though only by a hair).
From the starwars.com databank:
Yoda and Dooku engaged in battle. First, their powers in the Force were put to test, as Dooku attempted to crush the tiny Jedi Master with hurled debris. Yoda easily deflected such assaults, and even repulsed Dooku's Force lightning attacks. The contest came down to a duel of lightsabers. In a climactic battle, the two master combatants displayed amazing speed and agility. Yoda, empowered by the Force, leaped through the air, twirling and battering at Dooku's defenses. Dooku only managed to escape by using the Force to once again jeopardize Anakin and Obi-Wan.

Eh, it sometimes doesn't work right. I know this for fact. Only reason I know this was done before is because I've been here since the start of the subforum.
In any case, this will not be conclusive, but result in Yoda camps and Dooku camps who will war ceaselessly.
Like me, I still hold that Dooku did fine with Yoda in AOTC and indeed fought better than anyone else in the series. He successfully winded Yoda and proved he can at the very least hang via the Force with him. Based on evidence I see I'd say it could very possibly go either way. TO rule out that Dooku doesn't have a significant chance is to me ridiculous.
However, if I take a single sentence from the script as being verified fact (Despite that it's not reflected in the movie) I'd have to say Yoda wins, which is pretty piss-poor to me.

This is ridiculous. "Battering at Dooku's defense" is clearly not the case. Watch the fight again. Dooku contends well with Yoda and even gets in quite a few hits of his own, despite the fact that Yoda has lots of room to work with.
I really really don't understand the point where Yoda jumped over him, bounced back, and then landed on the floor again. That was pointless.

Hmm...
An old witch, a dwarf and Ogami Itto stand before the Mirror of Truth. Everybody that tells a lie in front of the mirror gets obliterated immediatly.
Old Witch: "I think I'm the most beautiful woman in the world" *zap* she's gone
Dwarf: "I think I'm the greatest person in the world" *zap* he's gone.
Ogami Itto: "I think" *zap*
Back to the topic: Yoda will most likely win this.
