Third, during the fight proper he knows that Vizsla will do anything it took to take him out, potentially even resorting to "non-warrior" methods such as his rockets and flamethrower, while Maul just continually fights with his saber and agility. Fourth and finally, when the pair lose their swords, he opts to beat him senseless with martial arts rather than the Force, as it would mean he "honoured" the fight by fighting as a warrior right to the end.
