Hand-to-Hand Combat

Yeah. That's assuming he'd be able to get in close, which would require him being able to evade Grievous's four arms (one of which is stronger than Maul's two) and two legs. Remember: Grievous could swing a lightsaber at twenty strikes per second. Imagine him using those reflexes and that strength against Maul's bare bone.

But in saying that, as soon as Kenobi opened GG's chest plates he got pwned. He most certainly would have lost if he didnt find that blaster. Maul would be the same, only he wouldnt have the blaster to help him. Also Greivous would still have all four of his arms.

if maul could pull them out, GG could push them back it...

Precisely.

Doesn't matter who is a better fighter when fighting a mound of metal...and your fighting ability has no bearing on positioning yourself to open up a check cavity. Being that Maul does in fact fight differently than OB1, GG might take a different approach and not let him get as close. But GG could snap a neck in a matter of seconds...anyone's neck.

Then why didn't Grievous snap Obi-Wan's neck right away? And Maul being a better fighter means maybe he could get in and pull back the chest plates and then get back out before getting punched/tossed aside.

To be honest, lol, I think at that point, Grievous was very much intimidated by Obi-Wan. He'd lost two arms to the guy, got Force pushed into a wall, and chased all across Utapau by him. In the case with Maul, he'd have all four hands (again, one of Grievous's hands is stronger than both of Maul's).

And he is faster than Maul, as well. Faster reflexes. I don't see Maul winning this without the Force to power his ability. Don't get me wrong, in unarmed combat, Maul's one of the very best and his technique is better than Grievous's - but he lacks the General's extreme physical attributes.

I think that Maul is faster than ROTS Grievous and has betetr reflexes.

I don't actually know too much about the Fetts. Who would win between Boba and Jango?

Well seeing as Jango is the original, and Boba is more experinced...eh...Well, I'm leaning to Jango, he shown more physical force in films, books, and EU. Dunno about Boba.

Well from what I've heard, by LotF, Boba is very badass, but so was Jango, being able to take on jedi and all.

*shrugs*

I'm leaning toward Grevious. Remember how he can spin his whole body and his arm? Causing a Lightsaber Tornado-like effect? Imagine doing it with his fist! HE IS INVINCIBLE!

No. Grievous can swing up to twenty strikes per second, according to the novelization. Can Maul do that? Hell no.

With 4 sabers...

No. Each his sabers were going twenty strikes per second.

Edit: I think. I'll have to find the novelization.

Which novelisation? I can look if you want, just tell me where abouts it is said.

The RotS novelization. It is the chapter where Grievous engaged Kenobi on Utapau. Something like "and, finally, at twenty strikes per second, Grievous overloaded Obi-Wan's defense."

Yoda, really?

Very.

Boba and Han, in their seventies, kick an outrageous amount of ass. Boba, moreso, being a trained Mandalorian and bounty hunter is able to grapple with foes a third of his age and win, but it also has to do with his unparalleled technique. Hell, Jacen is extremely leary of him after the incident in Bloodlines and makes it clear that he would not willingly start a feud with Fett.

Jango may (I couldn't tell you) the better fighter of the two, though, I suppose (one could argue that a blind Han Solo defeated Fett whereas Jango was defeated by one of the most powerful Jedi in history). However, Boba is by far the more difficult foe to get rid of - and he escaped the Sarlaac.

I'd go with Boba between the two of them.
