Yeah, I think Anakin takes this one after an awesome match.

Maul would win no problem. He was a far better duelist, and he resisted Force Lightning which one little blast was enough to keep Anakin down for a couple minutes. Maul is very good at seeing openings and taking advantage of them. Just look at how many times he did that to Obi and Qui-Gon while fighting them at the same time. Obi was basically a Jedi knight and Qui-Gon was a very skilled swordsman that learned from Dooku. Anakin could not have taken both of them at the same time, he probably couldn't even defeat Qui-Gon.
Need more proof? Obi Wan in TPM is rated as a 7 level dueler as is Anakin in AOTC and Obi was defeated by Maul with ease. Not to mention Anakin is not as experienced as Obi-Wan. Maul would beat him very easily.

K i must have been stoned when i posted this, because no way would I think Anakin can defeat Maul. Maul was trained by Sidious ever since a very young age and was indeed very hardcore with a lightsaber. Anakin in AOTC was a whiny little sissy who always had the penchant of getting his arm chopped off. Besides, I really doubt Anakin could take on Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan the way Maul did.

As Obi-Wan wouldn't be watching, Anakin would have no trouble being more agressive and hateful. I think Maul would get too cocky, true they would both get cocky, but Maul more.
Exactly, but Anakin does have some restriction for himself, being trained as a Jedi and all, Maul was always Sith, so wouldn't know how to control himself. Plus Anakin's the chosen one.
