Well, depends on your scale for 'beats the crap out of'. If we assume combat reflexes, hit probability for skill 12 vs parry 12 is 20.6%. Hit probability for skill 16 vs 9 parry is 67.7 (with deceptive attack 1). A better than 3:1 advantage is quite substantial, but that's still pretty likely to get unlucky and lose. You want more in the range of skill 20 (parry 14; hit probabilities 9.6% vs 83%) to really seem unstoppable.
