fight!

They would never fight. Qui-Gon had the hots for that chick since she was a Padawan.

One Free Man
fine.... First they suffer a brutal break up...

Then qui-gon hates her, so they

FIGHT!

What versions? At their prime? QGJ wins. If we are talking TPM QGJ though, he loses, since he can't fight for more than 3 minutes without exhaustion.

TPM Qui Gon might have been at his prime, or at least the prime that he reached in his life.

No. Much is said in TPM novelization about how his age weakened him. Something like 3 different mentions.

Nephthys
Age? He was, what, 50? The ****?

RE: Blaxican
Considering Mace as of like 60 was one of the best duelists in the Order's history, and so is 80 year old Dooku, and, nearly 900 year old Yoda...

TPM novel can go swing, lul.

Anyway, from what I remember, Qui-Gon did nothing but die at Maul's hands and spar with but never actually beat Mace 20 years prior to Return of the Sith.

So he loses. no expression

By reputation it might be a good fight, but Shaak Ti has more observed and impressive feats.

Well, look at Kenobi in ANH, obviously they didn't all age the same. 3 different paragraphs. Kinda hard to argue with.

Pg. 283: "Qui-Gon was nearing sixty; his youth was behind him and his strength was beginning to diminish."

Pg 286: "He was worn and battered by now, close to exhaustion..."
Pg 299: "Obi wan did not like the weariness he saw in the slump of the older man's shoulders, in the bow of his back. He was the best swordsman Obi-Wan had ever seen, but he was growing old"

Pg 200: "His opponent was strong, and had tested him severely. He was getting old, he decided, and he did not like the feeling."



Without question, TPM QGJ was not at his peak.

@TJ

That's rather strange, since most SW Force users don't decline with age. An exception is ANH Obi Wan, but that's because he was out of practice.

Shaak Ti.

truejedi
tis odd. and do we know enough to say most? Only the most powerful (of which Dooku was one of the top 2 or 3 of the order) get stronger with age, in my experience. I mean look at Kohta, he got weaker with age, (and blindess.)
