I'm going to do this in the style of the expert lightsabre duel analysts, Jensaarai1, GreyJedi91 and EvanNova95.
Obi-Wan Kenobi vs. Cade Skywalker.
Physical capabilities- Both are human males in top physical condition with high levels of skill in unarmed combat and strong resistance to injury and torture. I’ll give Cade a slight edge due to his being younger and less banged-up but it is a VERY small edge.
Edge- Cade.
Lightsabre skills- Kenobi and Cade are both expert swordsmen and each has a long track record of defeating highly skilled opponents. Cade’s specialties seem to be Ataru and Juyo while Kenobi is a master of Soresu with high levels of skill in Ataru, Shii-Cho and Niman.
I’ll give Kenobi the edge due to his more varied skill-set. It would still be a close match though.
Edge- Kenobi
Force abilities- Both are highly skilled, versatile and powerful Force-users but Cade has the advantage of being able to use both light and dark abilities, plus his overall power level clearly exceeds Kenobi’s.
Edge- Cade
Weaponry- Kenobi and Cade both use fairly standard lightsabres. Kenobi’s weapon uses a blue Adegan crystal as the focusing lens while Cade’s uses a green Lambent crystal. Cade also carries a Rawk Chopper double-barrelled carbine. While this wouldn’t be much good due to Kenobi’s Soresu mastery it still gives Cade more options and so he gets a (negligible) edge.
Edge- Cade
Verdict- The duel would most likely start as a clash of lightsabres, with Kenobi’s strong defence fending off Cade’s attacks. Cade would then resort to his Force abilities at which point Kenobi would be outclassed. While he has some impressive Force feats they pale in Comparison to Cade’s.
For comparison, Kenobi was able to telekinetically drag a starfighter across the ground and drop it on some droids. Cade lifted a shuttle (considerably bigger than a starfighter) that was partially buried in mud into the air and hurled it through the air at Darth Talon. This was after seven years of barely using the Force at all and frequent use of death sticks which numb a Force-user’s connection to the Force.
Kenobi also has a long and proud history of being overwhelmed and thrown around by the telekinetic abilities of enemy Force-users. Asajj Ventress, Darth Maul and Dooku have all done this to him and Cade is more powerful than any of them.
I declare Cade Skywalker the victor.

That's not a shuttle. And its not nearly as impressive as throwing one 120+ feet. Kenobi just kind of scraped it across the floor and collapsed it on some droids.
Cade was standing right next to the ship right before he threw it. How far the ship was thrown is unknown because none of the panels show where it landed. Where is this 120+ feet coming from?

The ship-lobbing one, a few pages prior there was an establishing shot showing it was quite far away (certainly 120+ feet, perhaps farther. Scale's kinda tough, but one shot showed the ship, some space, then the corpse of a 40-foot monster they killed, then more space, then more space, then where they were fighting), so he really tossed it.
That's a 40 foot monster corpse between them and the ship (same pointy snout, same ship).
And as we see in other shots, they aren't right next to the monster either. There's at least a monster length between them and the monster, and between the ship and the monster.

Also LOL @shuttle size
Wow, you're so bad at this you disagree on simple *height* when it's on page. That's visibly at least twice Cade's height. Exact hard to judge due to perspective, but really.
"LOL" is, I've notice, what you say when you don't have an argument.
Sidious 66He was pretty close to it before throwing it. That's not to say he was always close to it throughout the battle.
Even if they moved around- and they likely did move closer to the woods on the left, that's where Talon pushed Shado I think- they're still near the Acklay and didn't move past it during the fighting itself.
