[Infinity War] Is Maw a better sorcerer than Strange?

He talks to Strange like he's a kids birthday party magician. Is he just trash talking or is he actually better than the Sorcerer Supreme?

Maw technically won because he took advantage of an opening when Strange tries to activate the time stone. As a telekinetic, Maw doesn't have to do as much in order to activate his powers but while it is a versatile power, he's limited to just moving things with his mind. Strange, on the other hand, has to use complex hand gestures that take time but done properly, he can accomplish much more. 

Who would win in a fight is circumstantial. In a closed off New York street with lots of debris, Maw would have the advantage since he has a lot to work with and Strange doesn't have the space or time to invoke more complicated spells.

In a more open battlefield like in Titan with Thanos, Strange can perform more complex spells that account for Maws versatile but ultimately predictable attacks. He'd also have enough time to set up the time stone which would be a game breaker.
