This expression stems from war. A "front" is a place on the map where two militaries are fighting. To be "outmaneuvered" is for someone to act in a way that puts them ahead of you or puts them at an advantage. So, to be "outmaneuvered on all fronts" means that someone has complete advantage. No matter what you could try, they've already stopped it.
