If they are close when they start off, Plo could bedazzle Jango with electricity, and while Jango is disoriented with pain, Plo could chop him down. If they started a reasonable distance apart, though, Jango would fly up, and, assuming that it's not a flat plain of some kind, have an advantage. It would be a close fight, and I see Jango winning after a long time. He did well against Kenobi, who was a practitioner of Form III.It could go either, way, though. What accomplishments does Plo have under his belt?
Luke Force Chokes Gamorean Guards. Mace Force Crushes Grievous. Jedi can use choke, they just arn't supposed to. That's why Yoda didn't, and also cause it'd be hard to use it on Grievous. Plo is an agressive Jedi, like Mace, so in all likelyhood, yes, he would use it, if he had to, anyway. They start a medium distance away, lets say they fight on Kamino where Kenobi and Jango fought - Koon starts in the doorway, Jango where he started in his fight with Kenobi (but there's no Slave 1). After all, Koon's definately stronger than AOTC Kenobi, and while Kenobi utalizes Soresu, Plo uses Shien/Djem So, which is the form that excels at deflecting blaster bolts back at the person who fired them, so if lightning didn't work Plo could just as easily deflect a bolt back at Jango.
Plo was a physically strong Jedi, an accomplished starfighetr pilot, a Council Member and the hero of the Stark Hyperspace Wars (seemingly stronger than Qui-Gon). He was trained by Tyvokka, a great Jedi Master and Council Member who was over 400 years old. An adept and skilled warrior, Plo came from a long Kel Dor Jedi dynasty. During a fight on the planet Tinchorr, which took palce a year before TPM, Koon used a Force technique to conjure and manipulate clouds of dust to cloak the Jedi from their enemies. Plo used his telepathic abilities to help Aayla Secura regain her memories. During the Battle of Geonosis he, Mundi and Kit deactivated the Droid Control Ship. He was one of the few to survive the Battle of Geonosis. During the war, he coordinated the Battle of Brentaal IV, advising Shaak Ti. During the point in the war when Kenobi was believed to be dead, when Anakin insisted that he felt Kenobi alive Koon didn't doubt what he sensed even though Mundi downright insisted that Anakin was wrong. He rescued Bail Organa when he was attacked by pirates. Master Koon served as chief negotiator during the Battle of Rendili (and Kenobi was there, proving that Koon has greater negotiation skills than Kenobi, "The Negotiator", himself). He was also present during the Second Battle of Coruscant where his expert flying skills and swordsmanship paid off. He and Fisto fought Durge once, too, and sealed him in some satacombs beneath a prison. He knew how to use Electric Judgement. He was a master of telekenisis, being able to move objects without having to face them. Koon was a master of hand-to-hand combat. Darth Maul considered Koon to be one of the greatest Jedi warriors of his time (and that's saying something, as Maul despised all Jedi, for him to even think of Koon as a great warrior shows how good Koon really is). Plo was able to use his expert knowledge of physics along with the Force to alter the environment—the resourceful Jedi could create small whirlwinds as well as a dense fog over a limited area, freeze tiny rivers and lakes, and raise or lower the temperature of his surroundings enough to incapacitate an opponent. He was also a Master of Shien/Djem So.
Does lightning even work on Jango's armor?
I don't see why it wouldn't.
