There is the really dirty option to just trim the reaction shot of maul. Its the only shot the blood is in, you could easily shorten it by a second and skip the blood. You would only need to fix the audio afterwards to get rid of mauls grunt when the saber hits him. That could be a little tricky, but not really time consuming. At worst you would have to redo the saber-slashing sound effect and find a clean recording of the score.

I’d just move the audio forwards so that it starts at what is now the beginning of the trimmed shot, then shave the difference off the end of the audio sometime before whatever the next SFX is (Obi-Wan deactivating the saber, I think).

I’d do it the same way if it wasn’t for Maul’s grunt after he is hit, sadly it overlaps with the SFX of the saber.
