Hmm Doko was a 100 year old man. 😂
Maul took on Obiwan and Qui Gon in their primes, killed Qui Gon, and beat Obi in the saber battle, but the story had to let Obi win, so they found away.
Maul would make him look worse then he did Obiwan.

Cmon now. He beat Obiwan and disarmed him from his saber and had him in a hole clinging for his life. Plot says Obi had to win, and Maul was disposable character.

Did you not read what I said? I said Obi despite being just a Padawan gave Maul a good run for his money; not that Obi defeated Maul in combat. Maul lost due to arrogance and plot.

Ok, well I just don't see Padewan Obi giving Maul a run for his money, Maul disposed of him temporarily, got the kill on Qui Gon, Obi came back for more, he then got owned. Obi won yet, but not through direct light saber battle. Master Obi, sure he would wreck Maul, however when they fought, they were both apprentices.
In terms of lightsaber battles, I have never seen anyone on screen that has fought like Maul, he had complete control over the force, his moves, saber, environment.
Anyways, if thread been done before. I wont go on any further about it. cheers.

Watch the fight again and read the book... Obi was forcing Maul back and maul was having to fight hard to hold him off. He also partially disarmed Maul FIRST. Also, Maul couldn't get the better of a PADWAN Kenobi in sabers.. The ONLY time he gained his advantage was using a force push to disarm Kenobi and send him flying. Prior to that he wasn't able to disarm him in direct saber combat. Further, Kenobi was able to move so fast WHILE DISARMED and Maul was looking DIRECTLY at him and yet couldn't react fast enough to Kenobi attack that turned him into a pint sized midget.
Taking away Maul's force powers makes this a stomp in Anakin's favor if we're using ROTS Anakin. One of Maul's strength is his force powers and that would make him competitive with Anakin. Take those away and he gets owned by any Anakin after the Clone Wars.

He did. It wasn't some stomp in Maul's favor. Considering Obi was a Padawan, that is not in Maul's favor.
The Obv V Vader fight at the end of RoTS is far superior in speed, skill and reflexes. Either of those two outshine what we see Maul do.
It's fine, they can be merged if need be.

Is Jedi Padewan=Sith Apprentice?

Anakin and Obi-Wan were monsters in RotS. And you can't downplay Dooku. Before Anakin gave into his rage, he was walking the dog on both Obi(best defensive duelist in the galaxy) and Anakin(the chosen one).
Aight fair enough, I guess I thought Maul was a good saber fighter, guess he ain't that good.
