"Much as" - "Even Though".
"As much As" - "One thing compared to another thing".
"As much As" - "One thing compared to another thing".

1 st statement is wrong because "as much as" means "quantity as same as" which is wrong according to the sentence. So we can eliminate the first "as" in order to change the meaning to "even though" which is exactly right according to the context of the statement.

Yes, you are right. I do agree @Krishna.
As much as is used to like two things equally. Much as is different from as much as.
