I got his from Darth Mauls biography on wookiepedia
"Later, Maul was sent to Naboo, where he fought Jinn and his apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Though he killed the Jedi Master, Maul underestimated Kenobi’s skill and was severed at the waist by the Padawan. Sidious would quickly replace Maul with a more powerful apprentice: the late Qui-Gon Jinn's fallen former Master Dooku, dubbed as Darth Tyranus.
Surviving his defeat on Naboo, Maul returned to prominence during the Clone Wars, during which he was sought out by his brother, Savage Opress, for training in the dark side."
Now reading this i found these lines funny together:
1. Maul underestimated Kenobi’s skill and was severed at the waist by the Padawan.
2. Surviving his defeat on Naboo, Maul returned to prominence during the Clone Wars,
Severed at the waist then survived? lol thats some mad dark side powers.. I think the Sith just sold me... im in!
