Vader wasn't a particularly brilliant fighter either, though, as GL has mentioned. And Luke was learning, was becoming powerful with his released emotions, AND he was the hero at the critical point of the saga, which counts for a lot.
But none of the OT combatants would have stood a chance against the PT ones (though Obi-Wan would have been fine if he had gotten back into the 'groove').
Oh, and I massively prefer Dooku to Maul, of course; he was awesome.

too young, never knew the age of Maul, now Dooku has long experience as a Jedi so yes he had patience, skills and the brains required to be a really dangerous bad ass. Maul was more of an cool moves vicious looking bad dude with to arrogant for his own good. He laked a vial thing patience

Dooku was probably the most disciplined fighter. As in he had the most knowledge about fencing. Him, Mace, Yoda, Maybe Anakin. We'll see in the next movie.
Mace Rules, becaus ehe uses form VII jedi techniques, whihc takes him very close to the dark side, but he controls his emotions making him very skilled. He is able to utilize emotion in fighting while still staying on the light side. There are very few form VII users.
I still think maul was cool. He was young i think, and thus impatient. The thing about dooku was that he had the best of both world, he had jedi and sith traits so he was more skilled, used emotion, but was patient also.

One was the lightstaff (or double-edged lightsaber) with a guard to defend it from being cut in half. Impractical, as you would need to make sure you could flip the guard around in time to block the blow, but still a creative idea.
There was also a fan idea for a lightaxe, but how it's constructed seems kinda dumb. I would have it go straight rather than have two blades meet each other at an angle.
