If he's as strong as Obi-Wan, then the Spartan. Obi-Wan is an outrageous sword dueler for a Jedi (being a Guardian) and would likely walk all up and down the Arbiter in a CQB. But at range, he's less so, especially since blocking a bullet is not the same as blocking a bolt of plasma.
The force can be used to create shields
I know; believe me, I'm a big Wars fan, I know. But would that be Obi-Wan's first thought? Assuming neither of them know anything about the other, A Jedi would be ignorant of a Spartan's strength and agility, and the Spartan likewise of the Jedi's powers. Thing though is, Spartans are expert tacticians and are basically super ninjas. If they realise that this guy is a psychic, then they'll change tactics.
And before you say that the Force could tell the Jedi where the Spartan was, they're not perfect. The Force gives the weilder a combative edge, not invunerability. Jedi have a long history of being fooled.
Look at Anton from KotoR II, he killed Jedi for a living and he was only human. He said once you figure them out, its actually quite easy to fool them.
And Obi-Wan was, while a primary character, was no more powerful then any other Jedi Guardian class. Guardians focus less on Force training and more on Lightsaber training; Counselers are the opposite.
And all in all, if Obi-Wan tried to hack him to death with the lightsaber, he'd still first have to get past the shield AND the Spartan's strength and speed. A lot of Wars defenders have a tendency to make out Jedi/Sith as if they were demi-gods, as if they were ALL Starkiller. They were not. They were still human (or whatever race they were).
The Spartan has the advantage of the MJOLNIR armor which gives him full battlefield details, superior strength, energy shields, reaction speed of aproximately .02--give or take--seconds and superior accuracy. Coulpled with ranged weapons you'd have to be foolish to try and block with a lightsaber.
Obi-Wan (who this effectively amounts too) has the Force. And being a Guardian, the Force is his last thought. He'd try and get in close, while getting pummled by bullets, with no armor, and would likely get the saber ripped out of his hands if he did take a swing.
