Dooku held Mace off in the clone wars? Again lightsnake this is reality, not star wars according to lightsnake.
Mace and Dooku are on par with a 50/50 chance for each of them winning. Dookus Makashi style makes up for his poor physical strength while Maces Vaapad is very aggressive but uses much energy. If Mace cant beat Dooku in the first part of the battle then he will tire himself out. Then it will be easy for the Count to go in for the killing blow. So the battle really depends on the first part of the fight and who tires out first. I think Dooku has a SLIGHTLY better chance at winning because if his style and his knowledge of the dark side.
