Even sabers? Obi-Wan has some impressive saber duel feats. For instance, he beat ROTS Anakin, General Grevious, Asajj Ventress and held his own aginst Dooku.
Oh yeah, and Darth Maul

Yes, and Sidious would sweep the floor with ALL of them.
By the by, on the Invisible Hand, Kenobi didn't present much of a challenge to Dooku. Dooku, who so easily disarmed Grievous--in his prime.

Point taken, but surely Obi-Wan presents at the very least a challenge to Sidious in sabers. Btw on the Invisible Hand Dooku took Obi-Wan out with the force, lets for the minute just stick to sabers and so i will subtract Dooku from this particular point.
Dooku's not an idiot. Even with Kenobi and Skywalker duping him, he still survived their attack. Even when he realized Kenobi's mastery of Soresu and Skywalker's Djem So (which he admitted during that fight generated too much kinetic energy for his Makashi to meet head-to-head), even then he survived long enough to kick Skywalker and knock Kenobi unconscious.
In this scenario, without the deception, without the two-pronged attack, and without Anakin's brute strength and aggressive Djem So to exhaust him, then Dooku's got a very clear advantage.
And Sidious, quite frankly, is a tad above Dooku.

This is not a spite thread, i just thought that seeing as Kenobi is always touted as being the best defensive swordsmen in the jedi order that he might present a challenge to Sidious.
Yeah I think Kenobi would do okay in a pure lightsaber duel, but it's hard to imagine him coping with Palpatine's speed for very long before being overwhelmed.
