Darth Caedus. Ventress is the weak link. An insane weak link and I can actually see her being blitzed by Caedus or at least ragdolled and Malgus won't stand a chance against Caedus by himself.
Asajj Ventress being outgunned in this contest is understandable and justifiable. But is far-fetched to assume that Darth Caedus would literally stomp an opponent as powerful and capable as Darth Malgus. This would be a good fight.
An injured Caedus was handily beating Kyle Katarn (the NJO battlemaster) and three other Knights. One of them was Valin Horn, who later contended with Corran Horn, IIRC.
He also held off Tahiri Vella/Ben Skywalker. While its inferred in Outcast that Corran held back, he also admits that it took some effort. Valin had some skill with a blade imo.

And Darth Malgus swatted Jedi like flies, inside the Jedi Temple no less. Even during the course of confrontation with Ven Zallow, any Jedi foolish enough to interfere got his @ss kicked.
Do not forget that Malgus is counted among the greatest warriors of Sith throughout history. He even pioneered Force Maelstrom to overwhelm groups of opponents in battles.
As for Darth Caedus; he gained advantage in that confrontation by turning a nearby speeder into a projectile that he sent crashing towards the Jedi. Kyle Katarn, in particular, got hit and neutralized because the speeder pushed him directly into Caedus's lightsaber. After Katarn was down, the other Jedi were not good enough for the task and buckled under pressure from both Caedus and nearby troops that assisted Caedus.

Mara lost, and Jaina needed help from Luke and still admitted to being outclassed in the force.

Malgus is powerful. I'm not denying that. However Caedus is on a whole new level. His twin sister needed the aid from the most powerful force weilder(human wise) to ever live to beat him and then she admits she couldn't defeat him on her own.
Caedus was also rather badly wounded and more then a little distracted with his daughter in Invincible.
The Mara he defeated was Mara at her best, with all the 'Batmanning' advantages she could muster. It's arguably one of Mara's best showings anywhere. And, well, Luke was still down a wife at the end.
