Could Kanan Jarrus legitimately beat Maul?

He lost to Kanan in Season 2, lost to TPM Kenobi prior to that, is Maul's level of technical skill overrated or does he just get pigheaded sometime? In Season 3 we see Maul engages Kanan/Ezra at a duel at some point. Given Kanan's growth in the force, what is the likelihood of Maul being defeated for the 3rd time by a lesser skilled duelist?

He didn't lose to TPM Obi-Wan tbh. Or at least not in the dueling sense.

Filoni obviously hates Maul. He probably gets cut down by Ezra :/

Yep, that's the only explanation.

After all his bulls*** interviews about how the GI would just run from Kenobi and go to Vader for help, and he let's dat s*** happen to Kenobi's peer.

I remember the guys on Collider Jedi Council were discussing the other week if it will be Kanan or Ezra who takes Maul down for good this season 🙁

I'm still thinking Maul's combat abilities have waned in Rebels.

Kanan just had better footwork than Maul and knocked him off balance

Which basically means Kanan outfought Maul.

No.

Not even close.

Its canon that Maul's skill with a saber has diminished over the years.

No it isn't.

So Kanan = Obi-Wan? Kanan > Grievous
Kanan > ROTS Enraged Anakin?

Confirmed

^ No. But he can beat Maul according to fu**ing Filoni, whose gone and made that canon.

Freddie has already said that Kanan only defeated Maul because "the Force took over" and garanteed that under normal circumstances Kanan can't defeat Maul. Case closed.

Kanan is turning into the master of plot armor tbh.

Instead of finding a creative way to write him as the losing party in a battle that is totally lopsided, "da Force"
