Wow, weird match up... I don't know, could ROTS Kenobi engage his younger self and a powerful Bounty Hunter at the same time and win? It'd be hard to block young Kenobi's saber and Jango's laser bolts at the same time, though he might be able to use the bolts to his advantage in some way and have them mess up TPM Kenobi. I dunno about this one.
I'm not sure I think Obi wins.
Even though he is very much above his TPM self, he is defensive, and TPM Obi is still a very good swordsman. It's gonna take a little while at least.
However, here we have Jango Fett, who Mace was "swinging wildly" against when he was blasting him with only one gun and had a disfunctional jetpack! How is Obi going to parry two very fast blaster pistols in the back while parrying saber strike after saber strike from the front? He cannot turn 16 times per second, and Jango has many tricks to pull!
I don't see Obi-Wan coming out of this one!

well he could force push jango and take on his younger self
Like he did in AOTC?
Common, like a force push would scratch Jango. It's not gonna take him out of the fight, it will barley touch him, send him flying a bit (which would be neutralised if he activated his jetpack), that's it.

Humm...Hard fight. I think ROTS Obi could pull this out, but it wouldn't be easy. He would have to rely on Form III and keep the fight going for a LONG LONG time so he could wait for a mistake from someone (prolly his younger self). I say that ROTS Kenobi kills TPM Kenobi after a bit of effort (due to having to deal with Jango too) he then beats Jango rather handily.
Perhaps, but I think the duo take this. Jango was second to none in his skills as a Bounty Hunter, and he gave uber Jedi like Mace Windu a hard time. In the AOTC novel it says something about how his blaster fire caused Mace to swing wildly. Pretty impressive if you ask me. I think with TPM Kenobi there as a distraction Jango will be able to take ROTS Obi down, albeit with some difficulty.
"Kenobi met every one of his thrusts without so much as moving his feet, staying perfectly centered, perfectly balanced, blade never moving a millimeter more than was necessary, deflecting without effort, riposting with flickering strikes and stabs swifter than the tongue of a Garollian ghost viper, and when Dooku felt Skywalker regain his feet and stride once more toward his back, he finally registered the source of that blinding defensive velocity Kenobi had used a moment ago, and only then, belatedly, did he understand that Kenobi's Ataro and Shii-Cho had been ploys, as well.
Kenobi had become a master of Soresu. "
"The electrodrivers powering Grievous's mechanical arms let each of the four attack thrice in a single second; integrated by combat algorithms in the bio-droid's electronic network of peripheral processors, each of the twelve strikes per second came from a different angle with different speed and intensity, an unpredictably broken rhythm of slashes, chops, and stabs of which every single one could take Obi-Wan's life. Not one touched him."
"Grievous, snarling fury, ramped up the intensity and velocity of his attacks-sixteen per second, eighteen-until finally, at twenty strikes per second, he overloaded Obi-Wan's defense. So Obi-Wan used his defense to attack. A subtle shift in the angle of a single parry brought Obi-Wan's blade in contact not with the blade of the oncoming lightsaber, but with the handgrip. -slice-"
All from the ROTS Novelization.
If Obi can block 18 strikes per second, from all different angles, have Mace speak to him as if he was above him in saber combat, do fine against Dooku, and defeat Anakin in saber combat, I think he'll live through this. He knows all about his former self, and could probably find an opening fast against Padawan Obi. Then it's a simple matter of getting Jango...
