I will use One Piece scaling.

Disney Dooku utterly rapes Maul.

Legends Dooku beats him in a high diff very competitive fight but wins due to superior dueling skills and more patience.

Maul's biggest weakness was his lack of patience. He had everything from skill to raw strength/work put in.

Dooku may lose this simply because of matchup.

Dooku uses Form 2 in duels, which is weak to brute force, which is how Anakin’s Form 5. And Anakin’s form 5 is not as aggressive and as Maul’s form 7. Dooku was quite hard pressed to overcome even Palawan Anakin, whom Maul destroys in a saber duel.

Not convinced Dooku wins this when Maul has matchup advantage.

Dooku is weak to raw force though lol. That’s how Anakin defeated him (and how Padawan Anakin pushed him as hard as he did)

Dooku's Form II has a direct weakness to Anakin's Form V. Maul uses Form VII so I don't think the same argument can be made.


"However, the greatest flaw of the Makashi system of combat was its inability to generate kinetic energy in its application; the focus on precision and blade control hampered an adherent's ability to generate momentum in both offensive and defensive maneuvers. This meant that a duelist who possessed a sufficient level of physical strength could potentially overwhelm a Makashi practitioner, shunting aside strikes from the form's precision offense and simply bashing through its evasive, footwork-oriented defense. This lack of physical force left Makashi practitioners vulnerable to duelists utilizing more contemporary forms, which emphasized power and brute strength. This weakness was especially pronounced against practitioners of the Djem So variant of Form V, as the style was based almost entirely around fast, strength-oriented swordplay."
