Due in large part to Morley. It is impressive he lasted long enough to get him, granted.
Savage *fought through* a heck of a lot. It seemed to take more to hurt him in the first place than most anyone. And while he died from a double-stab, it was higher up and likely hit more vital areas.

Considering how many blaster shots Savage took, shrugging a full-strength kick to the knee from Adi, etc., I think more than an honorable. I'd say he's likely physically tougher than Maul.
Maul's tanked better strikes than a kick from Adi Gallia. He's been punched in the face by Qui-Gon Jinn and subsequently survived a "back-breaking fall". He's been slammed into steel walls by a wampa, been struck square on the chin by a creature outweighing him by like 300lbs, tanked being hit in the face by a skycar repulsor.
He's been able to ignore being literally roasted alive, tanked a full-force kick from Grievous without any real injury. During his sparring with Sidious he was covered in lightsaber burns, and that was just training. The list goes on and on for Maul. Savage gets an honourable mention but.. that's about it.
A few honorable mentions:
Mace Windu, gets impaled by a light-saber on a dark side nexus and still beats Kar Vastar without resorting to Vapaad.
Gets into a unarmed bout with Vastar knowing that he would lose and pretty much lets Vastar beat the shit out of him.
Kenobi, all of the times he's been kicked, taken down, ragdolled, etc.

Revan survived a bomb blast while only standing a foot away without putting up a Force shield.
It's admittedly not his most intelligent feat though...getting outsmarted by some pigs.
He also got tortured a whole bunch.
At least twice in KotOR. And then the whole Nyriss and Vitiate thing. Dude's got willpower.
Savage seems more durable than Maul, but that's only because he has more sheer strength than Maul. Maul has much better pain tolerance and durability.
In Season 5 Episode 14 - Eminence, it is clearly shows that Maul has better at pain tolerance and durability.

Maul regains his consciousness much earlier than his brother.
Nah Opress is stronger and more durable. He's taken a ton of blaster bolts.
You have to remember Savage has basically no training. His whole power with which he beats Council Members is his physical strength and beastly Tk waves. So those 2 weapons of his must be tremendous considering the wins he's pulled off.
Savage actually doesn't have better striking strength feats than Maul. The only way you could assert that Savage is physically stronger than Maul is by sheer size, but then that doesn't translate into striking power, which Maul thoroughly excels in. The same logic applies to his durability, and in terms of sheer tolerance for pain Maul is still more accomplished.

I agree that Maul was more durable then Opress, but your example is kinda bad. Savage was heavily wounded, while Maul wasn't.
I don't know... It seems to me that a good comparision. Also Maul lost one magick legs (he screamed when he lost it), it seems that was kind of different than cybernetics, since it is made by Talzin's magick.

And Maul doesn't ? He get shot to his hand when the time he was fighting against Pre Vizsla, took several grenades explosion shock, and he still continue to fight.
Maul is like expert in this area. Savage is good but, Maul is like a durability god. He survived from being cut in half, what example do you need ? 🙂
And TPM Maul has many durability feat as well.
Ah, and then, Sidious hurled him hard to wall (which is cracked the wall) and he still didn't lose conscious, then he shoot him with force lightning, then probably shoot him more. And then Dooku shoot him again. In the end he said this ;

For Jedi, Master Fay deserves at least a honorable mention. She is heavily implied to have only died after being stabbed by Ventress with two lightsabers because she gave her last strenght to Obi-Wan.
👆 agreed. Another one who deserves a mention is Lanoree Brock, tanking a bomb blast and getting up like it was nothing is a pretty great feat. Then there's Bane of course. Honestly though, the poster boy for this is Vader, the dude has survived a bunch of stuff.
@DarthAnt66. Good to know.
