Obi Wan vs. prime Grievous

"Grievous liked to steal lightsabers from the Jedi he killed, and he hoped to add Obi-Wan's weapon to his collection! When the two came face-to-face in one of planet Utapau's large sinkhole cities, Obi-Wan had to contend with many unpredictable attacks from the half-machine, half-creature. However, without the power of the Force, Grievous was no match for the Jedi. Obi-Wan was able to anticipate Grievous's blows and cut off several of his hands. The cyborg was forced to flee into outer space, where his tough duranium shell allowed hum to withstand the crushing air pressure." -- Star Wars Jedi Battles (2013).

That quote makes absolutely no sense. Grievous did not flee into space on Utapau

The source is inferring that was his intent, but it doesn’t mean that he succeeded because Obi-Wan caught up with him.

No, the source is patently bullshit, its a DK Adventures source, which are notoriously bullshit and I am not even sure they can be considered canon

It never said he intended into flee into outer space, it says that he FLED into outer space where his duranium shell allowed him to withstand "crushing air pressure" (whatever the fuck that means, as there isn't "air pressure" in space). Which isn't what happened on Utapau, its what happened the Invisible Hand in the orbit of Coruscant

The fact you would use such a nonsensical quote says a lot

So you're saying that because it suggests that Grievous escaped death (which contradicts the movie), it's description of Obi-Wan vs Grievous must therefore be wrong, even though it doesn't contradict the movie? Get out of here with that logic.

Get out of here with logic that a source that mistakes Utapau for fucking Coruscant and claimed Grievous survived, all while describing events that never happened in any of the several novelizations of this story can possibly be an admissible quote

This is assuming that absence of evidence is evidence of absence, which it isn't.

You are missing the point that what this quote implies directly contradicts the almost all canon sources and ROTS itself

I don't understand how you dont understand this

What's that got to do with Grievous being no match for Obi-Wan and Obi-Wan being able to anticipate Grievous's lightsaber strikes, which isn't contradicted by any other sources, tell me?

You don't think that such a nonsensical quote MIGHT be somewhat unusable given part of it was already called into extreme question?
