I recall Kun besting Baas and leaving to Onderon. 😬
Exar Kun was confirmed to have grown immensely in power between defeating Baas via Jar'Kai and his second encounter with Baas, so that's an irrelevant detail.
He was defeated by Baas initially, but that's also irrelevant given he wasn't using his rage yet. Nevertheless, note Kun *did* defeat Baas numerous times prior in duels too.

Given that baas was then able to fight on par with that far more powerful version of kun when he used one blade, its obviously not an irrelevant detail.
And kun being able to beat baas in sparring sessions means jack when baas is beating/matching superior versions of kun.
His previous triumph vs baas was with two blades, with one blade(as ulic fought kun), baas stomped that earlier version of kun.
Its blatantly stated and made clear that dooku beat yoda. On the otherhand when both are using one blade neither showcases any edge. Furthermore, we have it being implied that the use of the saberstaff is what did baas in with it being noted baas was specificaly "no match for kun's saberstaff".
And yes, when we have kun and baas fighting for several panels with neither gaining any edge, I'd say that shows they were fighting as equals
