I know. Just pointing out Bulq isn't a nobody.

I can't imagine Maul NOT being in the same tier as Fisto and Ventress (perhaps slightly higher). So while I agree that Kenobi would prevail, he would only do so after a lengthly and very hard fought duel.
Yep thats pretty much my thoughts on the matter. 👆

Actually, that's pretty much exactly where I put him too 🙂
Then theres no point in us debating this any further 🙂
I see ROTS Obi-Wan winning this fight. He's considerably more powerful and experienced than he was in TPM. Even if he doesn't outright overpower Maul, he should be able to outsmart him with some strategic advantage. Padawan Obi-Wan was able to catch Maul off-guard and beat him. I see no reason to believe that his stronger ROTS counterpart wouldn't be able to overpower or outmaneuver Maul.
Obi-Wan should win without much trouble IMO. Say what you want about Obi-Wan's Force powers...he did stalemate Anakin in RoTS. That is really impressive in my book. He also has the whole Soresu going for him and a lot of experience fighting lightsaber wielding opponents. It won't be anything like the first time they fought.
