Canon 135mm+ Extender EF 1.4X III VS Canon EF 200mm F2.8 L?

Wide open, the 135 + 1.4x is fairly soft and not a match for the 200 2.8, but stopped down a bit, it's not bad. This combo was actually one of my earlier "wildlife" lenses, which worked decently on a crop body.

Here's a peek at the performance:

And a sample of what the combo can do at f/4:
