Let us look @ da facts. Exar Kun is canonically unstoppable in combat:
By coupling these tactics with his Force abilities to predict the actions of his opponents, Kun became virtually unstoppable in combat.
This means he is better than Anakin by canon, because Anakin can't stop him in combat because he's unstoppable in combat. And he can predict Anakin's moves, which is a bonus. Next he chokes out the extremely powerful, totally not lacking-for-TK feats Jedi:
As his eyes adjusted, Streen saw that all twelve of the Jedi candidates were limned with the faintest sheen of an iridescent blue glow that grew brighter as the new Jedi converged around Exar Kun. "Even joined together, you are too weak to fight me!" the shadowy man said. Streen felt his throat constrict, his windpipe close. He choked, unable to breathe. The black silhouette turned, staring at those who resisted him. The Jedi trainees grasped their throats, straining to breathe, their faces darkening with the effort. Kun's shadow expanded, growing darker and more powerful.

And they all totally had their defenses up. Like, legit defending(we'll just ignore how Streen managed to help them breathe just a moment later).
He also one-shots Luke Skywalker(we'll just ignore him having the aid of Kyp Durron, Luke not even defending himself initially, and it being a potent nexus).
Exar Kun stomps, we all need to accept this and move along with our little, insignificant lives.
Originally posted by AncientPowerTry harder honestly, Exar Kun has 'extreme', 'enormous' power in life.
He's canonically:
> Muur, Nadd, Hord, Sadow, Kressh & Ragnos among the ancient Sith.
>> Thon, Odd Bnar, Vodo, Ulic, Nomi & Odan-Urr among Old Republic Jedi.
> C'boath, Cronal, Jerec, & Gethzerion among New Republic Dark Siders.
.
Proof Anakin is as powerful as elite Sith like Ludo Kressh and elite Jedi like Odan Urr?
