Then that leaves the debate where it was previously, right? Reposting for context:Probably
The rest of my post is just me analyzing how the matchup goes with Sherlock trying to disarm A.J.'s lightsaber, on the assumption that a laser sword would burn &/or cut through his arm. Also: My analysis left me unsure on who's in the better position in melee.
To summarize:
Sherlock has boxing hand to hand skills & good analysis, better LS, possibly better reach (FoP art style means A.J.'s arm length is unclear.), A.J. has Acrobatics, & a weapon that makes safely disarming/restraining A.J. difficult (Plus, Sherlock is trained in boxing, not grabbing.), & in most circumstances, A.J. being shorter means he can get to the ground quicker to grab the lightsaber if it falls, kicking it away usually (Getting a weapon out of your opponent's hands AND having it land so you can kick it away BACKWARDS isn't easy.) means it's closer to A.J., who has Acrobatics & Speed Equalized. Meanwhile, getting a restraining grip on A.J. that doesn't leave Sherlock's own arms in lightsaber range is difficult.
