Rebels Kenobi has decades worth of experience and was a General on top of being a Jedi Master who already bested a more powerful and skilled Sith in Vader.
Lucky for Maul he ain't fighting that grizzled veteran.
Maul would kill E1 Kenobi in seconds. Only reason Padawan Kenobi could hold his own solo was because of him being filled with rage after Qui-Gon's death.
Ep 1 Obi Wan only beat Maul because the guy acted like a cocky moron.
To be fair at least Obi Wan didn't look like he was about to have a heart attack like Qui Gon did.
Plus thank god that section of Naboo had the perfect place for a lightsaber fight with all these platforms and forcefields randomly going on and off. That was just good luck all around.

Honestly, if there wasn't a bottomless pit behind him for Maul exploit, Obi-Wan could have beaten him in that duel.

Well, then Maul wins. Any other version of Kenobi beats him, though.
AOTC Obi-Wan would still have a really hard time against TPM Maul. Even TCW Obi-Wanwas pretty even with TCW Maul. By ROTS Obi-Wan would probably win but it wouldn't be a stomp or anything IMO. Post ROTS it's Obi-Wan all the way.
