Yes kenobi was "outmatched" after taking a physical wrecking after maul unbalnced taking advantage of kenobi's being physically wrecked and maentally off guard due to having ambushed(with his brother) and tortured kenobi extensively with kenobi being kod twice prior. Lets just ignore when the fight beforehand where kenobi took maul out twice, retrived his saber from him, and
after instantly recovering from a flurry of maul's kicks was abe to intially drive maul back when maul angered him.
you could call that a wash because maul was rusty, but to actually use that fight to argue maul is more skilled than kenobi is asinine. And there's also what happened next episode, where kenobi simultaneously outdueled(and yes feloni not only calls it a kenobi victory but also says the duo couldn't beat kenobi's skill) oppress+maul despite having to use a secondary form due to facing multiple opponents.(and as feloni himself has confirmed, as well as kenobi replicating thi smultiple times throughout the mythos and stating his own ability to do this), kenobi's "focus amp" wasn't circumstantial.
Arguing taht tcw maul=tcw kenobi as a duelist is like trying to say that tcw kenobi=tcw maul as a force user. Except worse, because while
maul's showings had circumstances favoring them, and kenobi has had a degree of success tking bothj maul and oppress without circumstances, kenobi's succes as aduelist had circumstances hindering him,
