In this context, mobs are a group of people.
to fancy means to like
your chances means your chance of success
to not like one's chances means the chance of success is small.
So...
"Better groups of people than you have tried to defeat me, but they failed. You will likely fail to defeat me."

Let's make this simpler.
A - "I can prove that I am smarter than you"
B - "Better people have tried and failed" B is telling A that smarter people than A have tried to do the same to B but failed.
B - "I don't fancy/like your chances." Saying that A's chances at proving he is smarter is very slim or "your chances are not great in my opinion."
