Godisme is exactly right, the entire fight was one sided in Mayuri's favor the entire time. He could have killed Uryu at any moment but his lack of serious in the situation and his curiosity as a scientist got the better of him, allowing his opponent to take the advantage. In fact if nothing else Mayuri left the battle after unwittingly sustaining serious damage, but he was still alive. If not give the antidote by Nemu then Uryu would have died either way from Mayuri's poison. If Quincy were all that powerful they wouldnt have been wiped out in the first place. The level the Vandenreich are operating at largely is grossly overpowered for opponents, especially considering that Arrancar of the Espada-level couldnt even take the captains and thats from a race more inclined to this level of power.
