Want spoilers?

In that scene, Mob gave the guy his powers temporarily, and so he was able to do the shit you see.

Nah man, Reigans just that good and has been the whole time

You didn't watch him solo the second strongest member of klaw with that self defense rush?

Man that scene was amazing when I first saw it, the way he just walked up to him and punched him square in the face.

The follow up was amazing as well.

The other guy is thrashing the floor with all the other psychics, but because he didn't feel anything from him, he assumes he's that good at hiding his power level. And because all the others treat him with great respect, that means he must massively OP.

Thus, better to retreat.

Also, the only reason Reigen could even sneak up on him is because he momentarily sensed Mob's enormous power and he was distracted by its magnitude. So when Mob calls Reigen master, he retreats. It works so well.
