I think
1.Not really sure. Kenobi did fight Maul/Savage at once but that wasint really a win since he only beat Savage. They seemed even in the previous fight and Maul did beat Kenobi when it was Maul/Savage Vs Kenobi/Ventress. TBH I could see this going ether way but I give Maul the slight edge.
2.Maul easily here. Everytime he and Kenobi fought in TCW Maul demonstrated he was far superior with the force. Choking Kenobi like what three times? In the fight between Savage/Maul and Kenobi, Maul even ended the fight with the force.
3.Maul is just to powerful in the force for Kenobi. I think Maul would win 7-8/10 but it would be good fights. I just don't see how Kenobi is better seeing as how Maul was made out to be stronger in TCW and he's stronger in SoD.

Of course he TK'd Anakin the same time Anakin TK'd him. Whereas he generally gets caught off guard by other Sith Lords.
Eh him and Anakin combined also deflected Tyranus' TK, albeit with effort. And they let out a pretty impressive blast in response. If anything based on their performances on Oba-Dia it suggests that Kenobi and Skywalker were peers force wise with Anakin being the superior duelist.
Also in canon the times Obi-Wan has been TKed by Maul he was either:
A. Wounded
B. Fending off another formidable duelist in Savage/ just expended a ton of energy with a ton of ataru acrobatics (which is an atypical form for him).
I doubt Maul could do that to a fresh Kenobi, he's no Dooku.
I've actually seen someone make a good argument for Maul.
This is from a Star Wars versus page on Facebook where both of them are in their primes:
"My opinion... Maul. In The Phantom Menace, Maul had won, so he let his guard down. That's how Obi-Wan won. In their first fight in The Clone Wars, Maul pretty much wrecked Obi-Wan. In the next fight, though, Obi-Wan took on Maul AND Savage. I think it's because Savage got in the way.
Noah Sternhill, you'll appreciate this next part.
More of my rationale is that a resurrected TPM (way less powerful than Maul's prime, which is during the events of Son of Dathomir) Darth Maul kicked ~ANH Darth Vader's butt, and ANH Vader is pretty solidly above Kenobi IMO.

I agree with this for the most part. Kenobi still has a good chance and it's definitely a 6/10.

Actaully when one examines the fight between Obi wan and Maul the first time, once Obi received his rage boost he fought evenly with maul, in fact he disarmed him of one of his sabers. So with that both characters only got more powerful afterward. In the fight in TCW Obi wan got double teamed massively, he was suprised and caught off guard.
As for the events of pre ANH Vader vs that maul doppelgänger, mauls physical prime was TPM so that's why he was able to get the leg up on Vader. So really using that logic has to many holes in it to conclude Maul is above Obi Wan.

That's what I mean. Sith Lords tend to catch him off guard with Tk attacks. Mauls probably only slightly more powerful in Tk than Obi-Wan tbh. But he's probably better at applying the ability during combat.
