[Star Wars] High ground memes aside, does this mean that Obi-Wan was a better fighter than Anakin at the end of RoTS?

It was a 1v1 on Mustafar.  Obi-Wan won, even thought Anakin was the chosen one. Does this mean that Obi-Wan > Anakin?

A superior army can lose to an inferior if the right circumstances allow, so just because Obi-Wan defeated Anakin didn't nessasarily mean that he was a better fighter.

Obi-Wan excelled in a more defensive style of fighting. Giving ground, holding off your opponent until they make a mistake. Couple that with the fact that Anakin was clearly unstable mentally during the dual, meant that he was ripe to make a mistake.

Obi-Wan knew Anakin's fighting style, and what he was able to do. At the end the dual on Mustafar, he predicted what Anakin would do if he was in that position. He probably also deduced that if he taunted him that he held the high ground, he would react in a certain way, probably due to his ego. He was right and exploited it and that's why he won.
